JAKARTA - The term "Japandi" is a combination of the words "Japan" and "Scandi," and refers to the fusion of Japanese and Scandinavian interior design aesthetics. The merging of these two designs was formed due to the similar appreciation of the two designs towards nature, minimalist aspects, simplicity, and functionality, for that they both look mutually sustainable.

Launching High End, Friday, July 29, there are several elements that stand out from the combination of these two interior designs. Japandi combines the greatest elements of both highly iconic designs. The combination produces something harmonious, flexible, and charming.

For the right color selection, choose 5 prominent colors from Scandinavian designs. Choose a soft Scandi color such as pastel pink, blue, green, or gray, for an added touch, you can also choose a darker accent color such as black or gray to give the impression of contrast.

Japanese design is characterized by simple, rustic, and artistic aspects, which symbolizes the anti-consumerism of the nation. Japanese designs tend to favor bare surfaces, wood furniture that looks stained or painted, and furniture that is curved in shape, all accompanied by a clear and minimalistic function.

The Japanese are known for their beautiful furniture designs. Usually they choose pillows, curtains, rugs, and glassware whose quality is already visible.
