Here is how you can incorporate Japandi in your house. 

1- Start with a high-contrast colour scheme that includes saturated neutrals and small hints of colour. 

2- The Japandi style is mostly about minimalism, so your space should be decluttered and airy. Try not to include too many accessories. Also, it is all about quality when it comes to this style. 

3- This trend embraces natural beauty. So, bring greenery and plants indoors in a simple way. Don’t overdo it and try to stick to single stems and foliage. 

4- When it comes to accessories, Japandi style is about prioritizing functionality over decoration. You can go for contrasting cushions ad throws. 

5- Both styles include functional furniture, but there are some differences that you need to keep in mind. Scandinavian furniture is light in colour, whereas Japanese décor is all about darker tones and elegant forms. Don’t be afraid to mix and match different shades of wood and mix curved and straight lines.
