What is Japandi Style and How To Bring It Into Your Home

The clever fusion of Japanese and Scandinavian design has become an increasingly popular choice for decorating homes. Japandi combines the best of both styles with the focus on binging simplicity, warmth and harmony into interiors.

Japanese interiors are sleek and Scandi brings a cosy and ‘hygge’ feel, the overall combined look is decluttered with clean lines and is minimalist and calm. Focusing on natural materials and the less is more approach, adding well thought out pieces to the room. The Japandi style is simple and can effortlessly translate into your home; we have picked out fabrics that will work well for this timeless scheme.

Japandi Style Colours

Japandi Style Colours

Earthy, muted and neutral tones lend itself to the calm Japandi style. Harmonious colour and pattern, such as the Kiata Linen fabric with a beautiful, graceful feather design and stone and oatmeal tones is perfect to create a soft and calm look.

If you want to add a touch of colour with this trend, use a soft shade such as pale blues, greens or pinks, such as the Enso Granite fabric. Alternatively add a deeper accent colour such as charcoal grey with the Naoko Slate fabric.
