If we want to maintain the pure flavor of China. That needs more consideration. For example, the rules left over from the traditional Chinese style, the room strictly abides by the distribution of the central axis, and has strict requirements on the position and orientation of the furniture in the hall.
If you are a restaurant designer, you should pay attention to the difference between China traditional color painting and China color painting. At present, there is a Chinese restaurant in China, which is decorated like a palace in the Qing Dynasty. Many decoration techniques are designed according to the level of the Forbidden City. The only drawback is that the colored paintings are small. There were three kinds of color paintings in China in Qing Dynasty, and the position and significance of each color painting were strictly different. Moreover, the color paintings used in that restaurant are just wrong, and there is no way to show the richness and solemnity of the palace.
I suggest you consult more books of this kind, if you have the heart to do it well. It is very important to use decorative techniques. Maybe you made a small detail, which not only made you learn a lot in design, but also made your work deeper.
