Overall, I want a warm feeling for all of the materials, so I can offset that with the cooler night-time light from offscreen. I want to bring in some violets and blues with my night colors, which will play off the yellows, oranges, and reds, nicely.
I also want to play up the geometric patterns in the image- shoji screen grid, porcelain plate, vase, picture frame.
Shoji: For the shoji screen, I was mainly looking for how light passes through the paper areas. I'm going to keep it traditional colors- darker wood and off-white/cream paper. I like how the 2nd image has blue sky light filling it at the bottom and slowly fades to warmer tones.
Candle: I think I need to bring an actual candle in for this material. I want to keep its color pretty neutral, but warmer.
Candle Holder: I wanted a silver material for the candle holders, but still warm in tone. Pewter seems to be the best option for this. I want a wear level between this images.
Porcelain: For the small dish in the foreground, I want to do a blue/white porcelain, but less detailed than the examples below. I think I want a simple blue stripe around the edge or center flat area, possibly a patterned stripe. I'm looking at the images below for circular pattern examples.
Ceramic Vase: I really want something a little older in feel for the vase. I like the geometric rough texture of the second image, but with more subtle warm tones.
Incense Sticks: I wanted to make sure I had a few images of what incense sticks look like post-burning. I may need to deform the stick on the plate and apply a second shader to it.
Frame: I'm going for gilt-wood + pattern for the frame. Nothing ornate, but I like the warm sheen I'm going to get from it.
Picture: I want something older in style for the picture frame, a painting or a print. If I can't come up with something that works in the scene, then I'm just going to leave it empty.
