The retro style is a great way for you to redo the decor in your home. This style is now becoming almost as popular as when it first came about in the past decades. The retro style itself is full of some unique looks, and colors that are bright and bold. With influences coming from the 50′s all the way into the 70′s. Changing your decor that is dull into this style that is full of colors and textures can make a room lively and warm.
Retro has to be one of the easiest styles to change over too. It’s a great experiment in adding accessories that are funky looking and have a fantastic design. With retro the main idea is to add in things that you would normally think are too out there in your other styles. Additions of textures are another great way to bring in the retro! Add some great area rugs, throw pillow and even change the cushions on your couch to a fantastic bold design. (via: articledirectorycentral.com)

They are often from the characters and legends known from China’s history. (via Ezilon.com Articles)
