Frequently weaving Asian design into her residential projects, Los-Angeles-based interior designer Betsy Burnham<\/a> is rapidly earning international attention. Here, she speaks with PAGODA RED about easy ways to incorporate Asian elements into a modern space and why absolutely everyone<\/em> needs a garden stool.<\/p>\n

PR:<\/strong> What specifically draws you to\u00a0Asian style?<\/em><\/p>\n

BB:<\/strong> Asian pieces provide the perfect mix. At Burnham Design, we love all things vintage and decorative, as well as any pieces that have clean, simple lines. Asian pieces fit\u00a0into just about any type of design, from classic to modern and everything in-between.<\/p>\n

PR:<\/strong> What\u2019s an easy way to start incorporating Asian elements into one\u2019s home?<\/em><\/p>\n

BB:<\/strong> I\u2019d start with a highly functional piece. Asian sideboards are perfect for linen storage (and as a surface for table lamps) in dining rooms or under televisions to house A\/V equipment in a bedroom. Or, try a ceramic garden stool. They\u2019re super decorative, often come in fun colors, and work as both side tables and additional seating in a room.<\/p>\n

PR:<\/strong> What\u2019s your go-to Asian piece?<\/em><\/p>\n

BB:<\/strong> Ming-style or Parsons-style tables, both cocktail and side.<\/p>\n

PR:<\/strong> Do you specifically seek out Asian pieces or do they just find their way into your projects?<\/em><\/p>\n

BB:<\/strong> I\u2019m not sure I seek them out specifically, but Asian pieces definitely find their way into almost every\u00a0project\u00a0we do. Sometimes it\u2019s just a simple vintage box for a bookshelf, but often it\u2019s a larger gesture: a decorative Asian screen as a headboard, or Asian demi-lune\u00a0tables as entry pieces.<\/p>\n
