Japandi: A Blend of Softness and Refinement
Japandi is an interior design style built on essential principles and noble natural materials: the simplicity of Scandinavian furniture blends with the symbolism of Japanese tradition.
Japandi is a harmonious combination of subtle colours and materials. Delicate tones and meticulous attention to the selection and placement of decorative elements define this refined aesthetic.
The ultimate expression of style, look no further, this is it!
“At Gerflor, creativity is not an occasional, intuitive or spontaneous phenomenon, but a plant that is carefully cultivated and nourished every day, patiently and methodically. We travel the world to identify global trends in design, architecture and fashion. At the end of these journeys come our mood boards: condensed expressions of styles, colours and materials that serve as an endless source of inspiration for creating new products. The raw material for our future collections lies there, a vital sap that continuously feeds the identity of the Gerflor brand, inspiring ever more unique and innovative products.”
Gino Venturelli, Artistic Director at Gerflor
Japandi is defined by volumes shaped with geometric lines, crafted from pure, unpainted solid wood, stones carved from massive blocks, blown glass and forged metal. Quality and comfort are treated as absolute values, standing in contrast to fleeting trends. With this style, original materials and the craftsmanship behind each object are deeply respected.
A soft and relaxing atmosphere, never forced or artificial, is the essence of this trend, which blends, through a single name, two styles and two regions of the world that may seem far apart at first glance. Yet both share the same attention to detail and the same appreciation for high-quality materials.
Because in both Japan and Scandinavia, everything is about order and beauty and that is clearly understood.
