Tips from Mokana Furniture on creating a Japandi interior and which furniture fits perfectly with this popular style of living.
Japandi is a mix of the Scandinavian and Japanese styles of living. Geographically, of course, Scandinavia and Japan are far apart. However, in a Japandi living style, they come together perfectly. They share a love of simplicity, nature and sustainability. This is reflected in the choice of natural materials, quiet colors and plenty of storage space.

This living style is all about simplicity, sustainability and naturalness. That's why it's important to go for natural materials. For example, choose mango wood or teak to bring some nature into your space. Natural materials also bring neutral colors, which is also important in a Japandi interior. If you want to go for a raw wood look, check out our Omaha collection. If you still don't want to go for wood, opt for white or cream-colored furniture to bring in the tranquility. Our Alviano collection fits perfectly into this calm living style.
To keep the peace, storage space is key. Choose plenty of storage space with closed cabinets to make decluttering easy! This way, your space will always appear minimalist and calm. When choosing storage space, carefully consider what you need it for. Big things? Small things? Mokana has the solution for everything.
Go for natural materials and dense cabinets to bring Japandi into your home. For example, choose the natural and timeless storage furniture from the Madison collection, which even includes coffee tables with plenty of storage. The cabinets from the RichWood collection also offer plenty of storage with a natural look.
Because Japandi uses a lot of earthy and neutral colors, it is important to add some variety to your interior through texture! It doesn't have to be many, but this is the way to make a Japandi interior a little more exciting.
When choosing fabrics, consider how they will look together. For example, choose a more robust rug in combination with a sofa of sophisticated fabric. Take carpet Fez in taupe, for example. It goes beautifully with a light and refined sofa such as the Bombino sofa.
