Interior Design Indian Rangoli

Rangoli

In Indian cultures, all guests and visitors occupy a very special place, and a rangoli near to the door of the house is an expression of this warm hospitality. Traditionally, such floor decorations were done only on auspicious occasions but we nowadays we also find them in weddings, birthday parties, opening ceremonies...

The designs are symbolic and common to the entire country, and can include natural or geometrical patterns. They are made with natural elements such as flowers, stones or most of the time colored powder (the base can be sand, marble dust, saw dust, brick dust or other materials).

Rangoli also has a religious significance, enhancing the beauty of the surroundings and spreading joy and happiness all around. The entire pattern must be an unbroken line, with no gaps to be left anywhere for evil spirits to enter.

As it’s currently Diwali (the festival of lights) and that people visit a lot each other's homes to exchange greetings and sweets, we can see a lot of rangoli around. Here are a few one from my office:

This one was taken at the entrance of an hotel:

Rangoli can have different sizes and can be huge as you can see on the picture below:

India is always associated with its fragrance, sounds and colour. This country is something spiritual and even magic. “Fragrance of the Indies” collection is the most amazing offer of La Maison Coloniale, which invite you to relax and travel to distant lands in the comfort of your own home. This collection reflectes nature of India, its culture and traditions. “Fragrance of the Indies” is a collection of living room and bedroom designs. These interior designs are unique and inspiring. All furniture is hand crafted, sculpted and assembled according to ancient tradition, so it is mostly made of natural materials.

Indian Interior Design

Indian interiors are becoming very popular, this includes furniture, architecture and textile designs. The highly decorative and elegant Indian style means it offers the very unique opportunity to add both glamour and timeless tradition to a room. This is a clearly defined style that is not too difficult to implement.

Indian décor has a lot of imagery of the Sun, which has been worshipped by Hindus for many years. Doors, window dressings, ceilings, and fabric patterns all contain many elements that symbolize the sun. Carved columns and plate traceries are common, as are figurines of respected animals such as cows, horses and antelopes.

Lacquered furniture is hugely popular in India due to its richness of resins of all types. Furniture is typically low in stature and made of Indian Oak, nut wood or pink wood and has a real solid functionality about it. Unusually, Indian furniture frequently has a double use. A former saddle or cart might be used as a coffee table or an elegantly carved door may be used as a table top in the dining room, such is the whimsical nature of Indian style. Not only does this give a real opportunity to add great character to a room when recreating the look, it could also save a lot of money as you may already own old items that could be reused. If not a trip to an old junk yard or salvage shop is sure to inspire some creative thought. A common feature of Indian design that we have already adopted is the nest of tables. Available in most furniture shops, a nest of three wooden tables which fit together like a Russian doll, would add a really typical feature to a room. Other items of furniture to look out for are delicately carved and encrusted cabinets used to store bed linen called “damchis” and maharajas style wardrobes made of Indian oak with fortress gate style doors.

Finally, soften the look with silk curtains and window dressings. India is famous for its silk saris which are used regularly to not only create beautiful clothing but also to add sumptuousness and decadence to homes. Colours to look out for are turquoise, burnt orange and raspberry. For added spice, use beaded back-ties and tassels to draw back your curtains into an effortlessly elegant arch that will really show of the sheen of the silk to its full potential.
