Vietnamese Style Living: Ceramic Tiles, Louvers, and Rattan Chairs

A Vietnamese colonial-style living space. The ceiling is over four meters high, with a white plaster finish. The floor is cement tiles with gray-blue and ochre yellow patterns. The walls are white, with a waist-high wainscoting on the lower section. Tall double-leaf wooden louvered doors are painted a pale duck egg green, with a mottled finish; light streams through the louvers, casting horizontal stripes on the floor. Furniture includes a dark bentwood-framed rattan lounge chair, a round rattan side table, and a wooden cabinet with blue-and-white porcelain. A wooden-bladed ceiling fan is overhead. Avoid: adding gilded and vermilion Thai elements, using glass windows instead of louvers, lowering the ceiling, using plain flooring instead of patterned tiles.

一間越式殖民風的起居空間。天花挑高超過四米,是白色的抹面。地坪是灰藍與赭黃圖案的水泥花磚。牆是白色的,下段有一道及腰的護牆。高聳的雙開木百葉門漆成淡鴨蛋青,漆面有斑駁,光透過百葉在地面投下橫向條紋。家具是一張深色曲木框的藤編躺椅、一張圓形藤几、一個木櫃上放著青花瓷。頭頂一台木葉吊扇。避免:加入貼金與朱紅的泰式元素、使用玻璃窗取代百葉、把天花壓低、使用素色地坪取代花磚。
