Japanese interior design style can be summed up in one word – zen. It relies on modest design and natural elements, connecting thousands of years of tradition with the modern needs.
Japanese love and respect nature. By bringing it to their homes, they make sure they are surrounded by it even when they are not leaving their houses.
Japanese homes tend to be small so a traditional screen called shoji is often needed. They save space by sliding instead of opening as traditional doors.
Adding wooden elements to the home is one of the best ways to become one with nature. Bamboo is among the most popular types of wood Japanese use for decoration.
Though the minimal design is a trend all around the world, it’s much more than that in Japan. Sometimes, homes are nearly completely stripped out of furniture. In other cases, it is clean, modern and, of course, made from natural materials.
