5 STEPS TO JAPANDI INTERIORS

We've been seeing a rise in popularity for Japandi Interiors in recent years. This design style combines the sleek simplicity of Scandinavian décor with the natural warmth and elegance of Japanese design, creating a minimalist yet cozy atmosphere. Achieving a Japandi interior may seem intimidating, but with these 5 steps, you can create your own tranquil oasis.

Step 1: Embrace Natural Materials

One of the key elements of Japandi interiors is the use of natural materials. Think bamboo, rattan, linen, and raw wood. These materials add texture and warmth to the space, bringing the outdoors in. Incorporating natural elements into your decor is also a great way to achieve a wabi-sabi aesthetic, which is all about finding beauty in imperfection.

Step 2: Stick to a Neutral Color Palette

Japandi interiors typically feature a neutral color palette with pops of muted colors. Stick to shades of white, beige, grey, and black for your walls and large furniture pieces. Then, add visual interest with small decor accents like cushions, rugs, and vases in muted hues of blues, greens, or pinks.

Step 3: Keep it Minimalist

Less is more when it comes to Japandi interiors. The key is to have just enough furniture and decor to create a cozy, inviting space without clutter. To achieve this, opt for multifunctional furniture and keep your surfaces free of unnecessary items.

Step 4: Add Organic Shapes

Japandi interiors often incorporate organic shapes to soften the clean lines of minimalist furniture. Look for decor items like round mirrors, curved vases, and organic-shaped lamps to add visual interest and warmth to your space.

Step 5: Incorporate Japanese-Inspired Decor

Finally, to truly achieve a Japandi interior, add Japanese-inspired decor elements like shoji screens, bonsai trees, or paper lanterns. These details will bring an authentic touch to your space and create a sense of harmony with the overall design style.
