JAPANESE: THE STYLE THAT IS ALREADY SUCCESS IN DÉCOR 2021

Nordic and cozy minimalism in its essence, combined with the elegance of oriental style that uses natural materials, rustic and light colors, punctuates Japandi aesthetics - name given to the mixture of Scandinavian and Japanese styles. Japandi has been an inspiration for some professionals when it comes to ensuring comfort and delicacy, as the architect Bruno Gap points out, a Japandi enthusiast. “It is a style that I identify with a lot and on both sides, both Scandinavian and Japanese. These are readings that add up, I even find it complicated to say where one starts and where the other ends, because I believe that they complement each other in such a subtle way, but, inspiring and striking, at the same time".

Some coatings that make up the collection 2021 from Eliane perfectly exemplify what Scandinavian Europeans have used in their decorations. Classified as Hygge - not yet translated into Portuguese, but that comes down to everything that can bring peace, happiness and well-being, style is present in the concept of pieces such as Doric, Fossil, Pisano e Zeus. They insert the resident in this atmosphere of tranquility and coziness since they have characteristics turned to the natural, either by tone, by the texture or even by the shapes that create subtle nuances achieved by the movement of the gaze.

The Japanese ‘mood’, based on Wabi-Sabi - an ancient philosophy opposed to ostentation and opulence, but that represents the beauty, the aesthetics of the imperfect and the contact with nature - has pillars in the simplicity of the lines and shapes and the light tones, mostly pastel. “I really like the absence of objects, especially where only a few pieces stand out and shine in space, but I also really like the lightness and rusticity of the Scandinavian style ”, highlights Bruno, and leave a tip for those who want to add style to the decor: “Neutral tones, always! Black and dark grayish brown go very well to create contrast points. Bet on a neutral color, lighten or darken that color, this creates depth, focal points and makes the environment much more interesting, because nobody wants a stoned or washed environment. Shapes and light also guarantee that impression: mix cleaner and straighter shapes and, suddenly, put a more organic piece. The unexpected creates that famous ‘wow’ effect!”
