The Art of Calm: Living Japandi in Modern Simplicity
A bright and airy atmosphere radiates throughout this serene sanctuary, bringing forth the characteristics of Japandi design – an emphasis on minimalism and functionality. Embracing the art of simplicity, the fusion of two interior styles revolves around a common theme of understated elegance while cultivating a sense of wellness. Solid tone full-height cabinets streamline the entryway with functionality while showcasing a seamless blend with the rest of the interior. Accentuating a harmonious visual continuity, an amalgamation of light wood and pristine white walls incorporating shoji design details highlights classic Japanese elements. The living room exudes an incredibly cosy setting coupled with soft furnishings and Scandinavian decor pieces, complemented with sheer day curtains. Touches of greenery in the communal area introduce natural elements for a pop of colour, effortlessly elevating the space. Fully embracing an open concept kitchen, subtle marble-grained backsplash adds a layer of sophistication to the minimalist look. Showcasing a clutter-free environment, a sense of tranquility brings one right at home.
Interior Designer’s Thoughts
The homeowner requested for a Japandi design theme with more emphasis on the Japanese elements. The main design consists of ample storage space specifically for their living room, hence, full height cabinetry was built for a clean and seamless appearance. The open-concept kitchen allows sunlight to enter and makes it less restrictive. A play on lighting creates a cosy ambience to the communal area and entrance. With a clean and neutral colour palette, the decor pieces were kept minimal for cohesiveness. Soft textiles and stone grey furnishings were selected as it complements the light wood tones. Marble-grained backsplash of the kitchen creates a timeless appeal in harmony with the white countertop and wood laminate.
