Styling tips

  • Keep the wall calm. Plain white, warm grey or soft beige works best.
  • Pick one accent color. Echo the red or gold in a cushion, vase or lamp.
  • Use natural materials. Wood, ceramic and linen support the quiet feeling.
  • Leave space around it. Negative space is part of the Japanese aesthetic. Our poster size guide helps with the size.
