CORE PRINCIPLES

When it comes to interior design, Wabi Sabi is all about embracing the natural world, finding beauty in imperfection, and creating a calm environment. Here are some key elements to keep in mind when designing a Wabi Sabi style interior:

Use of Natural Materials : 
Focus on natural materials such as unfinished woods or bamboo pieces that bring in the feeling of nature and simplistic beauty. 


Cut the Clutter: 
Reducing clutter is also key to achieving the Japandi style. This design aesthetic focuses on clean lines and open spaces. 


Use Lots of Texture: 
To get the best of both worlds, draw on the coziness of Scandi design with warm textures and soft pieces while maintaining the elegance of Japanese decor. 


Keep Color Variation to a Minimum:
The simplicity of a mostly monochromatic palette is key. Stick to one lead color and one accent colour and not expanding beyond those two hues.


Invest in Quality Items: 
Japandi design is focused on craftsmanship. Look for pieces that will stand the test of time and work with your decor for years to come.
