Japandi Style is all about calmness, minimalism and organised spaces. It's one of our favorite interior design styles, and it's gaining plenty of popularity this year. I believe we all know why by now, but let me just state the obvious: mental health is a priority after the pandemic. A space that fosters that, is a big win for us.
This design style is also very affordable and very cost effective in the long run. Very important piece of advice, if you're going to purchase wooden furnishings and add wooden features, be sure to use sustainable oak wood. Oak is highly sustainable and highly functional for homes filled with kids.
When it comes to this nature inspired design, don't be afraid to go the extra mile with your greenery. Adding plants will complement your natural woods and warm browns, while purifying the air in your homespace. Ensure to research the best indoor plant types before making purchases.
A healthy indoor plant type we highly recommend for an authentic japandi look, is a palm. They flourish indoors and outdoors!
