What is the Japandi style?
Japandi is a harmonious fusion of Japanese and Scandinavian design principles, where simplicity, function and natural materials take centre stage. A Japandi interior feels calming and refined: clean lines and soft shapes in a restrained palette of beige, cream and light brown. It is about the art of leaving out, a few meaningful objects rather than a crowded setup.
Wood, linen and ceramics bring warmth and a connection with nature, while low furniture with organic shapes breaks up the clean lines. It is exactly that combination of minimalism and soft shapes that makes Japandi timeless, and it suits this time, in which conscious living and quality that lasts take centre stage.
Japandi tableware from Mimo
We feel closely connected to the Japandi style. Our Portuguese ceramic is made from natural clay and minerals, and every piece is finished by hand with a reactive glaze, which creates small variations. The matte glazes and organic shapes bring calm to the table. We produce consciously by reusing heat, water and materials. Read more about the material on our ceramic tableware page, and in our guide on choosing japandi tableware.
Bringing Japandi to the table
Start with a calm base in beige tableware or beige plates, the colours closest to the Japandi aesthetic. If you want depth, add a natural tone such as green or a darker piece, without it becoming busy. Feel free to mix and match across lines, because all Mimo collections share the same matte finish.
