When chinoiserie is viewed from a Chinese perspective, its naive and rather cockeyed images can appear somewhat puzzling at times. The eaves of pavilions and pagodas don't turn up the way they should, for instance, and the proportions of the latticework and the hip and gable joints are skewed.
如果以中國人的眼光來看這些「中國風」，可能對它們略顯單純而走的形貌感到不解。例如亭、塔的飛簷不翹、斗拱與窗櫺比例不對稱。
