This decor trend combines the best of *all* the worlds.
The world of interior design can be hard to navigate. Specific aesthetic categories like rustic, midcentury, or modern can compartmentalize and limit creativity. In real life (and with real budgets), interior design is a hodge-podge of several styles.
Japandi, the latest interior design trend, beautifully blends different inspirations, colors, lines, and techniques. It combines the warm, cozy simplicity of Scandinavian Hygge with the natural cleanliness of Japanese minimalism.
This versatile look can also translate into contemporary, rustic, French country, coastal, bohemian, and industrial styles. So, whether you’re buying a few new pieces or doing a complete decor overhaul, Japandi has the perfect design element to add to your home.
Japandi style equally prioritizes form and function. Woven baskets, paper lanterns, and handcrafted materials marry aesthetics and utility. (Because you’re decorating a house, not a museum display—why shouldn’t your decor do double-duty?)
Store your belongings in plain sight with these seagrass baskets with lids. These bins are long-lasting despite their delicate appearance thanks to their inner iron wireframe. This set embodies Japandi in more ways than one: neutral colors, natural material, and functional.
No one will ever know that these decorative boxes store your junk mail, kids’ doo-dads, or other bits and bobs with no real “home.”

Changing a prominent light fixture can shift the look or feel of a whole room. If you’re not looking to redecorate the entire space, adding this paper origami lampshade is enough to steer your look toward Japandi. The unique lampshade is available in two shapes, so you can mix and match or keep it ultra-simple.
The white lampshade glows a soft, warm yellow when illuminated from within, highlighting the distinct angles and shadows. Additionally, you can use this artsy lampshade on ceiling, table, or floor fixtures.
Japandi uses natural materials and colors to evoke a sense of calm and closeness to the environment. Natural textiles like jute, fur, leather, and linen are great fabric picks. Warm, earthy colors like rust, beige, brown, and sage greens are excellent additions to a Japandi aesthetic.

Pouf ottomans just make sense. Footrest? Yes, please. Extra end table? Why thank you! Need some more seating for casual get-togethers? Plop down on the pouf. Moreover, they act as inviting, unique decorations for the room while not in use.
This braided pouf from BIRDROCK HOME comes in nine versatile colors. While the most Japandi-esque poufs would be black, charcoal, ivory, and natural, there are also colorful options like dusty pink and soft blue.
Japanese minimalism and Scandinavian hygge both incorporate similar elements of clean, simple lines. By keeping furniture simple and low profile, you create lighter, airier spaces that appear larger and more open.
