Japandi or Japanordic is a combination of Japanese and Scandinavian modern interior design styles. Despite Scandinavia and Japan varying distinctly in cultures (not to mention geographically so distant!), they share the same core design principles: an appreciation for functionality and simplicity, and a profound respect for nature and craftsmanship. They are based on minimalist design principals focused on warm, natural elements and muted color palettes. Japandi style does not entertain ornate or gaudy details in your living room as interior design trends, only shiny shapes and lines.
