What Are Japandi Style Key Principles?
Neutral Colors
First of all, these are neutral color palettes that make you feel relaxed and at ease, and even if you are using bolder shades, they should be all-natural, too. Color combos used are mostly warm-toned ones to maximize the comforting effect, and dark or bold shades are mostly used for as accents.
Natural Materials
The second point comes out of the first one, and as you are using natural shades, natural materials are preferable, too. Wood, bamboo, rattan, stone, marble are all-natural and sustainable, and though they can be quite expensive, they will instantly elevate the style of the space and will last long at the same time.
Minimalism
This is a feature that both styles share: you can see minimal decor in Scandinavian style and in Japanese aesthetics, too. Stick not only to restraint color palettes and natural materials but also to a minimal amount of furniture of simple and sleek designs with natural lines. Textures will help your decor look eye-catching.

How To Style A Japandi Home Office?
First of all, think of colors and materials. Choose a soothing color palette and if you want, you may add some accents of dark colors. Consider having an accent wall or giving the walls a texture, for example, to limewash them. Prefer stained furniture to painted pieces as this way we’ll get closer to the principle of natural materials. Build in the shelves or add a stylish credenza that will float. Add textural lamps, rugs and curtains and some beautiful and simple vases and bowls, don’t forget of dried grasses or potted plants as Japandi is about everything natural.
How To Integrate A Japandi Workspace In Another Room?
