Where Nature Meets Neutral
The Art of Japanese-Inspired Living Spaces FROM MEH TO ZEN
If your living room feels more “meh” than “zen,” it might be time to take a page from the Japanese design book. With its sleek lines, contemporary flare, historical elements, and notes from nature, this design style helps create a serene and stylish space. Blur the lines of outdoors and indoors by adding plants into your living room or creating a peaceful backyard garden. Textures like wood, bamboo, and marble continue the nature theme throughout your home. Say “Konnichiwa” to minimalism, as this design aesthetic embraces simple, small furniture in neutral colors. Keep your decorations, art, and other items purposeful to create a tranquil setting. Clutter is the opposite of this design style’s core ethos, so less is more.
Focus on one or two vintage statement pieces, as Japanese design honors history and the past. Keep it simple, stylish and zen-sational !
