Japandi Interior Design Style
The Japandi interior design style is a harmonious blend of the characteristics of two styles: the rustic and pure Japanese style and the elegant and sophisticated Scandinavian style. This wonderful combination creates a warm and comfortable Japandi style.
Characteristics of the Japandi Style
- Natural spatial lines, rustic interior
The lines in the Japandi style are based on durable engineered wood panels, embodying a rustic, authentic, and natural aesthetic.
The Japandi style emphasizes naturalness and pure tones in most design spaces. From the wood grain on the surface to the curved lines, everything follows nature, giving us a sense of authenticity.
- The layout is streamlined and aesthetically pleasing.
Design spaces in the Japandi style mostly aim for minimalism and neatness. To achieve the desired perfect space, homeowners need to pay attention to the “essence” of the space, creating a clean and visually appealing layout.
Some ways to create a spacious feel in a Japanese-style design include arranging furniture neatly, prioritizing light background colors to create a sense of openness, and simplifying and optimizing the use of space.
- Warm, gentle colors
The Japanese interior design style primarily provides homeowners with a cozy space through neutral colors. A special feature of this style is the harmony between dark and light colors, creating contrast and making the space more unique.
- Smart, minimalist furniture
The Japandi style always emphasizes minimalism in design across many criteria. Therefore, typical furniture in this style is usually simple and lightweight. And they don’t take up too much space in the room.
Despite its simplicity, Japandi interior design always offers certain benefits, allowing homeowners to make the most of their space.
- Embracing natural light is a key element that enhances the style.
The most distinctive feature of this style lies in its use of natural light, creating a pleasant and airy atmosphere in the room.
Natural light fills the room with life. When combined with decorative items like plants, it makes the room even more vibrant.

Characterized by its distinctive materials, colors, and layout, Scandinavian design is favored by many clients for its harmonious and comfortable living spaces.
Characteristics of the Style
- Characteristic Interior Decoration Materials
This style is most clearly identified by its characteristic gray walls and dark brown wooden furniture. The design concept is based on main color tones such as brown, white, and off-white.
In terms of design, this style creates a luxurious, modern, and sophisticated look for the entire room. This allows the house to embrace the essence of Scandinavian design in every room.
- Neutral colors in the design style
The dominant color in Scandinavian design comes from the white of the walls. Common furniture colors include gray, off-white, pastel, and black. All are designed with color coordination around the wall color, creating a striking contrast with darker furniture. Therefore, the style always gives the room a warm and relaxing feeling at any time of day.
- Embracing Natural Light Enhances the Style
This style is designed to embrace natural light, drawing inspiration from the temperate climate of Northern Europe. Natural light is the key element that makes the space vibrant and airy, highlighting the interior design elements.
- Unique Decorative Space
Because it’s a style that maximizes natural light, when designing a room in the Scandinavian style, homeowners will always focus on large windows. The purpose is to direct natural light towards an open space, reflecting the characteristics of Nordic interior design.
Minimalist Interior Design Style
Minimalism interior design is considered one of the most popular styles chosen by homeowners today. Originating from the West, Minimalism is known for its unique characteristic: simplicity. This style has brought a sense of peace and tranquility to many Vietnamese family homes through its minimalist and streamlined beauty.
Key Characteristics of Minimalism Style
- Minimalism Makes a Difference – Less is More
“Less is more” is the motto that defines the Minimalist interior design style. The principle is to eliminate unnecessary details to create a more spacious and airy environment. The space then becomes tranquil and peaceful, reflecting the lifestyle and daily activities of the family.
- Monochromatic Color Scheme
This style is designed with a narrow color palette and a single, harmonious color scheme. Homeowners typically choose only a few colors such as white, brown, and gray. The background colors always adhere to the principle of being neutral and gentle. The color palette usually prevents the interior space from becoming overly striking, thus creating a peaceful and slow-paced atmosphere.
Monochromatic colors, when combined with furniture, create a sophisticated and elegant space.
- Natural light remains a key element in enhancing the design.
Natural light is always one of the decisive factors in the enduring beauty of minimalist interior design in particular, and other styles in general. Appropriate lighting will highlight the objects in the space, making the room feel warm and airy.
- Simple furniture is particularly appealing, intimate, and maximizes benefits.
When choosing this type of furniture, the number of items is minimized, creating a more spacious and airy feel in the room. The more minimalist you are, the more comfortable you will feel, allowing you to enjoy moments of gentle, peaceful relaxation.
In such a tranquil space, the optimal placement of furniture is always prioritized.
- Simplifying complex details and lines
The minimalist style almost completely eliminates elaborate and complex details in a room. Everything is minimized and streamlined to the maximum to create a peaceful and comfortable space, from lighting to lines. Everything is idealized at a minimalist level to enhance other benefits such as rest and relaxation for the homeowner.
