Turn a Leaf

Striking and simple is the Japandi way. Exhibit A: beautiful slouchy baskets. These feature original drawings screen-printed onto cotton and linen using solvent-free ink. Pop a Pothos or another leafy friend in them – plants rule in Japandi interiors – or store sundry items. Not that you should have extras hanging around. Curated is the Japandi way! Pepita Basket and Leaves Basket, Bookhou, $18.

Get in The Hot Seat

A squishy seat that manages to be both subtle and splashy is a rarity. In the Japandi arena, it’s exactly what you’re after. The mustard-hued beauty is unassuming, but has enough pizazz to hold up its own in the corner of your bedroom. But let’s be real: the cat’s going to monopolize it anyway. Sylla Modular Armless Chair, Mobilia, $509. Find more Pinterest home trend predictions for 2021.

Lean Into Quiet Art

After a Japandi look? Now is not the time to unleash loud posters. Restrained elegance is key with this trend.

Get Yourself a Patterned Pillow

Don’t be bogged down by details. Japandi decor favours soft patterns and neutral tones. That doesn’t mean going strictly Japanese or Scandinavian. This gorgeous grey and white shell pillow features a batik technique from Zimbabwe. It would look fetching in a Japandi-themed bedroom. Made of barkweave and cotton, each handcrafted pillow is unique. Grey Shell Pattern Pillow, Batiqua, $45.

The Home Depot

Embrace Spindlehood

With its peekaboo headboard and caramel-toned wood, the spindle bed is a classic, whatever Nordic or Far East trend you’re after.

Sip in Style

A traditional bottle water is so passé, and looks really out of place in a Japandi-styled bedroom. Elevate your next glass of orange juice with a sculptural carafe and cup that has a handcrafted wooden lid. With its organic form and beautiful rose punch, it’s a statement piece in the bedroom. Available in various hues. Førs Studio, Carafe & Cup Set, $106.
