In general, large furniture with simple lines is used. You can also opt for the recovery of refurbished antique furniture that give the environment a very special contrast.<\/p>\n<h3>Dark woods<\/h3>\n<p>In addition to the typical Scandinavian style woods that are usually light, you can use dark wood pieces, either for furniture, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fiaka.es\/en\/mesas-4\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><br \/>\n  <strong>tables<\/strong><br \/>\n<\/a>, <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fiaka.es\/sillas\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">chairs<\/a> <\/strong>or shelves.

A great option to highlight the Japanese decoration is to divide spaces with sliding doors, preferably with glass or translucent methacrylate panels that allow natural light to enter.<\/p>\n<h3>Shibori<\/h3>\n<p>This is a technique of Japanese origin, also known as tie-dye, which includes neutral tones such as dark blue, traditional indigo and simple patterns. An excellent technique that can inspire you to incorporate into your bedding or cushions. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fiaka.es\/en\/cojines-3\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><br \/>\n  <strong>cushions<\/strong><br \/>\n<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h3>Low furniture<\/h3>\n<p>Generally, low furniture is used.

You can place a Japanese ceramic vase on a Scandinavian table and thus maintain the balance between the two styles.<\/p>\n<h3>Dry trees or branches<\/h3>\n<p>Include a small bonsai, a tall floral arrangement or create your own composition with some dried branches by placing them in a ceramic vase.<\/p>\n<h3>Don&#8217;t forget the floor<\/h3>\n<p>You can also dress up the floor by using rugs with natural textures and patterns. One option for the floor is to recreate the textures of traditional Japanese tatami mats.<\/p>\n<p>For this you can use a rustic rug made of jute, rattan or wicker that simulates the appearance of these tatamis. Remember that natural fibers are the ones that stand out the most in this style.<\/p>\n<h3>Conclusion<\/h3>\n<p>We hope that all these features and ideas can help you achieve the harmonious Japandi style.
