This article discusses the features of manifestations of the Chinoiserie style in Ukraine. The study focuses on architectural and artistic monuments of the seventeenth to nineteenth centuries, with an emphasis on interior design and garden art. The article outlines the routes of penetration of Chinese handicrafts and objects of the European Chinoiserie style and identifies the leading motifs and elements that were used in organising the subject-spatial environment of Ukrainian estates: mural painting, porcelain, furniture, park sculpture and small-scale architecture. With reference to a generalisation of the authors’ field investigation results, the article outlines features of the use of elements of Chinoiserie style and their adaptation to local landscapes and cultural contexts. The main observations and conclusions of the study were obtained using methods of figurative–stylistic, formal, semantic and comparative analyses.
