25 Serene Japandi Bedroom Ideas

Are you a fan of the peaceful beauty of Japanese design or the simple coziness of Scandinavian style?

Get ready to fall for Japandi, it’s a mix between those two if they ever have a child.

Let’s explore what makes Japandi bedroom so appealing, and you can tell me which bedroom helps you sleep the best.

1. Stay Simple

If you’re all about that clean, simple Japandi vibe, this bedroom is for you!

What I love most is how it proves you don’t need fancy decor to make a statement, it still feels so put-together thanks to those matching wood elements.

To bring a personal touch to this place, hanging some paintings about something that inspires you can be a great idea.

2. Bring In the Plants

Ever notice how plants can transform a room in the blink of an eye?

I mean, they bring in a burst of life and a refreshing vibe that just makes me happy.

And if you’re anything like me – no green thumb in sight – don’t worry!

Faux plants are the perfect solution.

They (might) look just as good as the real thing, minus the whole keeping them alive hassle.

3. Get a Nature Painting

Nothing is more relaxing and healing than bringing nature into your room.

But if you worry that real indoor plants might require high maintenance then opt for a painting.

The beauty of greenery will remain and it adds up to the aesthetic of the Japandi bedroom with the Japanese touch as well.

4. Give Jute Rugs a Try

Okay, I believe you know using organic materials is a big thing in Japandi style, and jute rugs are a top choice because of their natural textures and colors.

What’s more, the texture and color of these rugs blend well with various room layouts, providing the perfect backdrop to make other furniture pieces stand out.

5. Customize the Walls

If you want to add a little bit of spice to your clean and minimalist bedroom, I think you’ll love this idea!

Why not add a touch of personality and warmth with a unique headboard wall?

This one takes inspiration from traditional Japanese doors and also the painting features a nature scene that brings calmness into the room.

It’s a simple touch that completely transforms the space, adding depth and a sense of peaceful escape.

6.Embrace Nature

This design, nestled among the trees, looks like a hidden retreat and blends seamlessly with its surroundings.

The main theme here is the use of wood—a natural material that perfectly speaks the Japandi style’s hallmark of incorporating organic elements.

A low coffee table just makes me want to sit there sipping tea while enjoying nature.

7. Go for Blue

This Japandi bedroom is a total vibe!

While the soft blue carpet and matching bedding create a peaceful look, the dark wood slat adds a touch of drama and acts as a statement wall.

The combination of dark wood and blue feels so modern and chic, especially with those pendant lights.

This is the kind of bedroom I could relax and recharge in!

8. Add Japanese Art

If a zen-like bedroom is your dream, look no further!

This space gives tranquility, with its simple wooden bed, and those beautiful ink paintings of Japanese bridges on the walls add a touch of tradition.

The minimalist furniture and bare floor keep things feeling calm and clean which is perfect for unwinding after a long day.

9. Mix In the Work Space

To my friends who don’t have that extra space, this one is for you.

This is THE layout for small bedrooms that need to double as a workspace.

The design cleverly includes hidden storage beneath the bed, beige and black bedding, and a computer table attached to one side wall.

It’s perfect for those who appreciate a clean and organized space for both working and sleeping.

10. Choose Linen Bedding

If you’re after the ultimate cozy sleeping experience, linen is the way to go.

It’s highly absorbent and breathable, so you won’t have to worry about waking up feeling overheated after a long nap, as can happen with other types of sheets.

And I’ve been told that with proper care, linen sheets can last for decades.

Want to give linen a try?

11. Let the Light In

It’s hard to feel relaxing and inviting coming home to a bedroom with no natural lights, I’ve stayed in a room like that and was traumatized for months.

 

If you can’t have the light shine directly into your rooms, try some tips like placing a mirror to bounce lights back or painting the walls white to make your place brighter.

12. Consider a Built-In Wardrobe

I’ve tried many sorts of wardrobes, from cheap plastic ones to custom wooden models, but let me tell you, the built-in wardrobe is a game changer.

It offers tremendous capacity since it’s usually built to reach the ceiling, and its design seamlessly fits with the overall theme of the room.

So, if you’re aiming for a stylish and organized Japandi bedroom space, a built-in wardrobe is the way to go.

13. Greenify Your Bedroom’s View

This bedroom truly embraces the surrounding nature with glass windows looking over the garden outside.

It’s just amazing to enjoy a view of nature from your bedroom.

While a garden might require a lot of space, there are also options for smaller areas.

I’ve tried adding small plants to the tiny space beside my bedroom, and it works perfectly.

Isn’t it just best to cozy up under the blankets on a rainy day and watch the rain fall?

14. Say Yes to Platform Beds

One thing that spots on with the platform bed is that I wouldn’t have to vacuum under the bed if I ever got one.

And you can utilize that space to install a cabinet for storing bedding sheets and things that you need but rarely use.

15. Choose Soft Lighting

For Japandi-inspired bedroom designs, I recommend choosing lights that cast a warm glow.

Harsh lights just don’t cut it.

This simple switch will instantly transform your room into a tranquil haven where you can truly relax and recharge.

16. Use Muted Colors

These colors don’t provide vibrant shades, so they won’t energize you like bright red or yellow; instead, they offer peace of mind.

Take olive green, a muted color, and match it with this white bedsheet for example—it perfectly matches the serene feeling of this place.

You can match other muted colors, they work well for Japandi-inspired design.

17. Add Color Accents

If you ever get bored with the sea of muted colors, try throwing in some contrasting colors to add a pop—without the eye-popping vibrancy, of course.

Here, come and take a look at this setup with brown and blue bedding with green throw pillows.

Just enough contrast to keep things interesting, don’t you think?

18. Shop Natural Materials

When you decide to decorate your bedroom in Japandi style, get ready to use plenty of natural materials. Think bamboo, wood, rattan, and jute—sustainable materials.

And one more thing, to make your space complete, adding some handmade pottery as a finishing touch is perfect, as the Japandi style also values craftsmanship.

19. Go for Black and Gray

Are any of you as obsessed with black as I am?

It’s tough to focus on any other colors, right?

This isn’t just an all-black bedroom; it features a palette of black and 50 shades of gray.

With a focus on sleek design and functionality, it lacks fancy decor but still feels cozy, thanks to the lights’ warm cast.

20. Add Round Window

Round windows hit different, right?

They’re a unique touch that adds a touch of magic to any space.

In this case, they’re bringing a touch of Japanese charm to the bedroom.

This bedroom captures the essence of Japandi style with its bright and airy ambiance, featuring a harmonious blend of green accents, natural light, and earthy textures.

The minimalistic wooden furniture complements the woven pendant lamp, while the large window allows sunlight to flood the space.

I love how the botanical art and potted plants bring a sense of life and calmness, making this a serene retreat.

This serene space emphasizes the Japandi philosophy with its soft lighting and organic textures.

The hanging lantern, paired with simple wooden furniture and neutral linens, creates a calming atmosphere.

The delicate branches in ceramic vases add a touch of Wabi-Sabi elegance, while the natural jute rug grounds the room beautifully.

I think this setup is perfect for creating a minimalist and zen-like bedroom retreat.
