Wabi-sabi interior design is big on staying true to the natural look of each raw material, with asymmetric tendencies that drive the beauty of imperfection concept home. At first glance, this three-bedder condominium has a wash of a calming earthy salmon-pink, as well as textures from limewash paint that feel as though the space were carved from damp sand. The built-in carpentry features dark chestnut wood, and is complemented beautifully by the hanging lamp at the dining table made to look like a real wooden log—a thoughtful touch of nature to the dining area.
The built-in aquarium within the cabinets creates an illusion of a floating cabinet, and anchors the closeness to nature. This special feature would definitely make every visitor do a double take! Single-colour walls are effective to create the serene ambiance of wabi-sabi, while avoiding visual clutter. The use of faux finish painting techniques to paint the walls and ceilings gives all sides of the home additional texture visually, while not deviating from the original intention of maintaining a calming ambience. The generous usage of wood across furniture and accessories, as well as potted plants (whether real or fake), are intentional elements proven to significantly improve our mood!
Instead of relying heavily on artificial light, intentionally injecting an abundance of natural sunlight is key to creating the serene atmosphere of wabi-sabi. The floor-to-ceiling glass doors of this home allow for this natural light, where the light shines from one direction and casts shadows that create a further dimension to the home.
Nestled in the heart of the Bidadari estate, this four-room HDB flat follows a mixture of wabi-sabi and other trendy home themes. The interior designer uses fluted panels to visually separate the kitchen from the living room.
This wabi-sabi project has a balance of dark and light tones. The rich wood texture brings forth the zen element, while the use of warm cove light further creates a cosy ambience in the areas where natural light is scarce.
Though wabi-sabi is big on roughness, modesty and raw textures, this project injects a sense of sleekness through the choice of all-black seating furniture, which complement the wabi-sabi cream walls. The minimal room decoration obeys the simplicity of wabi-sabi, and gives space for the raw elements of the interior design to shine.
For such a beautiful home, can you believe that this 71m2 renovation project was completed in a month at $20,000?
The neutral palette of this home perfectly complements the plants set at the different corners of the home! This wash of a similar tone palette across the entire space—from the walls, to the floor, to the built-in carpentry, and even the granite table-top, emphasises the wabi-sabi theme.An open-concept kitchen allows for natural light to flow through the house without obstructions, making it a great option for wabi-sabi homes that prioritise natural elements.
The details matter. The lovely plants in the neutral-toned pots and stands intricately resemble the ruggedness of nature, and every chair and table has its own perfect imperfections and personality. The rattan textures tie in cosily with the rough and modest character of wabi-sabi. Asymmetry is also a special feature in wabi-sabi homes, since most natural elements are asymmetrical in nature.
Having the windows face greenery scenery is a bonus of the wabi-sabi interior design. Especially since the homeowners work from home, looking up to such a picturesque view is calming and soothing, and invites a piece of nature into their four walls.
Invented by the homeowners and brought to life by the interior designer, “Rukisyuki” is a modern interpretation of wabi-sabi that infuses their individual personality and character into the design of the home. Instead of following the original rules of wabi sabi rigidly, the homeowners infused their personality and character into the design of their home.
To introduce airiness to the space while keeping things stylish, the homeowners use glass doors to separate the living room from the kitchen—allowing natural light to pass through the house while still keeping spaces separate.
By infusing practicality with aesthetics, the homeowner’s modern interpretation of wabi-sabi is inspiring.
