The Beauty of Japanese Furniture Design

Posted by HaikuDesigns on June 29th, 2017

Zen philosophy places a lot of emphasis on the concepts of simplicity and minimalism, which had a big influence on Japanese architecture, landscaping and furniture design. Feng Shui embodies these two principles with an emphasis on open space and the incorporation of natural elements such as water and stone and light. Nature has a lot to teach us about how to find a healthy balance between chaos and order, and the Japanese approach to interior and exterior design strives to achieve this balance. If you’re interested in creating a Japanese or Asian theme in your bedroom, then a minimalist approach is a great way to accomplish that.

Not only is the Japanese style of furniture durable but it is also aesthetically pleasing to gaze upon. Combining renewable resources like bamboo and latex with the unique designs of platform beds and orthopedic mattresses, the Japanese approach to the production of furniture is progressive in a world that needs a more alternative approach to commerce. Today’s Japanese furniture fuses traditional concepts like simplicity with modern values such as sophisticated craftsmanship, allowing us to enjoy the best of the past and the present, if not the future.

Originally, many centuries ago, Japanese beds were mats made of straw and they were covered by either blankets or cotton pads. Since then, Japanese beds have evolved considerably, and the platform bed is a perfect example. One significant improvement is that they often come with newly improved futons or natural latex mattresses. However, Japanese platform beds also incorporate time-honored construction methods like joinery, dovetailing and reinforced blocking. Creating harmony in your bedroom begins with a clean and clutter-free space, and then you chose a platform bed design that supports that approach. One’s bedroom should be a safe haven by creating an atmosphere of serenity and relaxation, and this article has shared some of the ways that you can fulfill that goal.
