Thai style residence
Thai decoration has always been very flavorful. That color, that line, is clearly grown in tropical countries, with the wetness of coconut wind and banana rain and the glory of temple golden roofs.
As soon as I entered the Thai style hall, I saw orange and golden paints painted on all four walls. They were not evenly laid out like Chinese craftsmen, but rather scattered from east to west, as if the painter’s hands were after getting drunk. There are several silk canvases hanging on the wall, embroidered with elephants and gods and Buddhas. The stitches are rough, but they have their own vividness. Several copper chandeliers hang from the ceiling, with lampshades shaped like lotus flowers. The light passes through the hollow patterns and casts mottled shadows on the floor, making people feel as if they are in a Buddhist temple.
Furniture is mostly made of dark teak wood, with a few short beds, not aiming for height, but for stability. The cushions and pillows are colorful and embroidered with intricate patterns, ranging from peacock feathers to tropical flowers. When sitting on it, one can feel that the filling inside is not cotton, but some kind of plant fiber, emitting a slight grassy fragrance. There is often a tin tea set on the coffee table, accompanied by several small plates containing dried fruits and fragrant flowers. It is unclear whether it is for decoration or for actual use.
Doors and windows are the most interesting. The door frame is wide at the top and narrow at the bottom, forming a trapezoid shape. The door is carved with the pattern of the Naga snake god, with a coiled snake body and distinct scales. The windows are narrow and long, with criss crossing window frames that cut the sunlight outside into blocks and cast them indoors, creating a flowing painting. Curtains are often made of thin gauze, light purple or light green, gently fluttering when the wind comes, filtering the outside heat into a hint of coolness.
The most wonderful thing is that the small Buddha niche must be located in a corner of the hall, shining brilliantly and enshrining a small Buddha statue. Incense was burning in front of the Buddha statue, and the smoke rose gracefully, emitting a scent of sandalwood throughout the entire room. When Thai people go in and out, they always salute to the Buddhist niche, which becomes the soul of the whole residence.
Thai decoration does not seek uniformity, but rather comfort and naturalness. Every detail is filled with passion for life and reverence for gods and Buddhas. Being in it, one feels both physically and mentally at ease, as if even time has slowed down.
