Styling your home with Japandi-style homewares and decor

Here is a quick styling guide to keep in mind when designing your home in the Japandi design style: 

• The Colour Palette

The Scandinavian colour palette is monochromatic, softened with light neutrals, pale wood tones, pastel greens, blues, and pinks.

Japanese design places emphasis on warm, richer earthy colours and darker woods.

In Japandi style, these colour palettes combine to create a harmonious, peaceful foundation of neutrals including beige, cream, oatmeal, tan, and stone.

• Architectural Features

Architectural features include oak ceiling beams, floor-to-ceiling windows, sliding screens, wooden wall slats, lime-wash finishes, hand-cut millwork, and stone slabs.

Value is placed on the beauty of the materials and quality of craftsmanship involved in building the home, selecting materials can naturally patina over time.

• Window Treatments and Lighting

Organically shaped lights and lamps are often the key statement piece. Pendant lights crafted from paper, sisal, jersey or bamboo add visual weight, balancing out the low-sitting furniture and while rattan floor lanterns provide a soft diffused, ambient light.

Scandinavian-style adjustable floor, wall, and table articulated lights feature matte black or white shades to provide structure and a modern feel. 

Bamboo or roller blinds are perfect for adding privacy, whilst preserving the circulation of natural light and tying in with the existing materials.

• The Decorative Elements

When it comes to Japandi-style accessories, every item has its purpose and is often hand-made. The ancient Japanese concept of wabi-sabi refers to harmony, balance, and beauty evident in imperfections and the passage of time.

This philosophy prizes handmade, timeworn, and irregularly shaped objects, seeing cracks, uneven glazes, and chipped paint as unique and special elements.
