Fill your home and your heart with the calming effects of the tranquil Japandi aesthetic, a look that is elegantly understated, yet carries a confident undercurrent. These four inspirational Japandi style interiors demonstrate how to craft calming Japandi decor schemes into modern living rooms, stylish kitchens, relaxing bedroom designs, and chic bathrooms. The mellow mix of Scandinavian meets Japanese decor shapes a warm welcome without any jarring colours, and simple layouts that quietly serve everyday routines. Home design number one revels in natural wood tone and botanics, home interior two cuts a little sharper with bolder outlines and contrast. The third home tour is minimalist and mild, whilst our final design focuses on sophisticated wow factor.
Abstract artwork draws focus above the small sofa in our first Japandi living space. The rich neutral colourway of the wall art inspires dark beige scatter cushions upon the white couch, and draws visual links with natural wood tone around the room.
A monochrome Scandinavian rug spreads bold pattern across the small lounge area, and cosily defines it from the rest of the open plan space.
The modern wooden bookshelf is lightly accessorised with small and elegant decorative items, which neither demand attention nor clutter the airy interior.
An oversized dining room pendant light remains understated in its solid white colourway. The white lightshade blends quietly with a row of solid white kitchen wall units behind, whilst the wood dining table visually merges with the natural wood base units.
A lounge chair, small side table, and a mature indoor plant slot into the transition space between areas, forming a pretty reading nook.
The white walls of the living room not only paint peaceful surroundings, but create a clean backdrop that can serve as a fuss-free projector screen whenever required.

We begin our second home tour in a stylish living space design, where the lofty ceiling height is accentuated by tall bespoke cabinetry. A jute rug complements the honey wood tone of the double-banked untis.
A modern sofa threads a cool grey accent against the large area rug and a wall of warm wood tone.

The small kitchen appears much larger than its restricted dimensions thanks to ice white unit finishes and worktops.

Eye-catching wall lights illuminate an all-white hallway that leads to the bedrooms and bathroom.
Inside the first minimalist bedroom, a custom-made platform bed with storage has been crafted to perfectly match the length of the wall. White wardrobes march toward a height-matched wall mirror, where the resulting optical illusion doubles the length of the storage run.
A home workspace wraps around the opposite side of the bedroom. A white swivel chair contrasts with the natural wood desk.
The second bedroom is almost an exact mirror image to the first. In here, the swivel chair pulls up to a custom desk with a bookcase fashioned underneath it.
The bathroom follows a laconic colour palette of white and beige.
A similar decor scheme shapes the powder room. Bold matt black accents sharply punctuate the creamy walls, a mini bathroom sink, and a simple bathroom mirror.

A modern lounge chair crisply matches the cream upholstery of the couch, and ties in with the soothing wood grain of the living room wall panels.
A decorative vase supports a branch that stretches aptly across the landscape vignette.
