Fusion Decor: Home Accents Combining Cultures and Art Forms
If you are looking for fusion decor for your home, you will have to travel far to find anything better than a gorgeous crystal rock metal wall sculpture. A fusion of metal and rock in wonderful green blue and deep red shades, these two panels cover 36 x 12 inches of your wall with nothing less than sensational color.
Fusion decor is different things to different people, but it is hard to find better than this. However, for something unusual, why not try a fusion of whites: an oriental white dragon resting on a wooden base, and holding an occidental white lampshade is a fusion of the East and the West in the form of a beautiful lamp fit to grace any room in your home.
These two home accents are individual examples of fusion decor of differing types, but are not the only examples. Here is how you can apply the principle to various rooms in your home or office:
Fusion Decor in the Living Room
By using the beautiful white oriental lamp described above, along with the multi-color wall panel and a 32.5 inch tall Moroccan Kansara vase, you will have created a fusion of cultures that will look great in any living room. The rich bright colors of the hand-painted design on the vase perfectly fuse with the simplicity of the white lamp, with the colorful metal wall sculpture bringing the two together.
There are many other variations you can use to express this theme of fusing different cultures and decorative styles to provide a unique way of furnishing and decorating your living room – or any room in fact. Here is another example for your dining room:
Fusion Decor in the Dining Room
Your dining table will look magnificent by fusing a beautiful lilac French table runner, woven with floral motifs and butterflies, with a set of simple 6 inch square polished aluminum pedestal candle holders, and a fabulous heavy glass bowl resting on top of a 28 inch high x 17 inch wide scrolled metal stand. All of these can be found online.
The candle holders can be used with either plain white candles, or scented candles in a color that matches the 70 inch long table runner. You could use the glass bowl to hold floating candles or a selection of fruits. The fusion of these three decorative elements produces a stunning yet very simple effect that would grace any table.
You will no doubt be able to think of many other possible ways in which you can use this concept in your own home. However, it is not only in the home that you can fuse disparate decorative elements together. Many apply the idea to their office – either their home office or at their place of work.
Fusion Decor in the Office
Three types of item that you could fuse in your office are a globe, a decorative wall sculpture and some simple desk furniture and accessories. The globe is practical, but should not overpower the other decorative elements in your office. The whole idea of fusion is that one element does not dominate, but that they all combine to provide interesting decor that also has a purpose.
In your living room, for example, you have the lamp that is used for lighting, the vase that can be used for flowers or just as a decorative element, and the purely decorative wall sculptures. In the dining room you have the decorative but functional table runner, the candles which are always good on a dining table and the large glass bowl that is very decorative, but also has a functional aspect to it.
In the office, your functional items could include a floor-standing globe of around 16 inches diameter held in a magnificent polished hardwood stand around 39 inches high. You can fuse this with a wall sculpture, perhaps in the form of an antelope\’s skull with spiral horns, 45 inches high and 35 inches wide. This would provide a loose connection with the globe, and both of these fused with a polished metal and black leather desk set, including pen and stand, letter opener, memo pad holder and magnifier.
Fusing the Functional and Decorative
The whole idea of fusion decor is a combination of different elements, such as different cultures, colors or functions. The above example of office decor fuses the functions of the decorative horns, the functional but decorative globe and the fully functional desk set that also looks good your desk.
There are many other ways in which you can use fusion decor to your advantage, and the above are just a few examples of how to select items to offer your home or office a unique decorative yet functional look that not only will many admire, but that will also provide a topic for conversation and discussion.
