The Ryo Kan Spa Hotel in Mexico City, the Nobu Shoreditch restaurant in London and Tsukimi restaurant in Manhattan, private California villas and villas in southern Europe designed in wabi-sabi style – the so-called Japonisme – are the introduction of Japanese culture globally, and it is one of the top design trends of 2020. Minimalistic from the first point of view, this style is enriched with centuries-old values and is represents a philosophical perception of life.

Wabi-Sabi meaning

A deep awareness of space around you, the desire for visual lightness and simplicity are rooted in the religion and culture of the Land of the Rising Sun, in the lifestyle of the Japanese and their worldview. The Universe as a single space with the absolute harmony of man and the world around him, with the spirituality endowment of every thing and every object. This perception is a base of the modular architecture, which considers the whole space as a set of zones – ordered modules, each of which has its own place and its purpose.

These principles of wabi-sabi philosophy you can find not only in interiors of the eastern style, but also in the most modern premium interiors, whether it is minimalism, hi-tech, contemporary, loft, constructivism or eco-style.

Bathroom or lounge area takes a special place in any interior as it is a place of restoration of strength, calm and harmonization of thoughts. When working on the interior design and decoration, it is important not only to create a composition of necessary objects, but to comprehend it in order to get an organic space, regardless of whether it is a small room with a shower cabin in an apartment or a huge bathroom with a spa area and a pool.

Simple and Conscious

The Japanese aesthetics is a combination of archaism with maximum simplicity and at the same time with a certain “planned” imperfection in the elements of the interior and furniture items. For example, linen tablecloths, a handmade clay pot or a bench from an old board. Things are extremely functional and simple, but reflecting the true beauty of the path of life. Wabi-sabi is a grace of simplicity, a rejection of everything that does not make sense and has no purpose. Many unnecessary trifles and excessive decor violate the philosophical principle of wabi-sabi. Beauty and peace, acquired precisely within the functionality, there is no need to choose between them.

One of the most popular techniques when designing spaces with a bathroom or pool in the new wabi-sabi Japanese style is the use of sliding panels on the windows that separate the space, allow natural light to flow inside and open scenic views, blurring the line between man and nature.

The East is not just a trend in the interior, it is more a philosophy expressing the attitude to the interior as a functional “clean” space.

It seems that you can apply this approach to any modern space, if you take its design as consciously as the Japanese do it.

Living in a modern house designed specifically for you has its own significant advantages. On the other hand, life in a historical building creates a sense of timelessness and a sense of perspective. The interior design by Kingston Lafferty Design surprisingly combines both modern comfort and the charm of the old architecture of the former 18th century carriage house.

Instead of a single aesthetics, the designers decided to create an eclectic appearance of the house, combining brutal industrial style and sophisticated minimalism. With this approach, there is always a risk of creating a certain “mess” from themed interiors, but Kingston Lafferty Design managed to avoid this thanks to an open layout and meticulous selection and use of decorative details.

On the ground floor there is a combined area of the kitchen, dining room and living room. Vaulted brick ceilings transmit the dynamics and fluidity of the space – an original element of the architecture of the XVIII century. The terrace is a natural extension of the interior areas. The fully tiled kitchen table goes out, erasing the border between the interior and the exterior, and thereby further enhances the sense of integrity of the whole space.

In the design of private areas, designers allowed themselves more courage in choosing colors, materials and accessories. In addition to marble, concrete and tile, walnut wood, brass and soft textiles are combined here. Classic mid-century furniture, including the legendary Tulip table by Eero Saarine, is interspersed with contemporary modernism such as red pendants from Maison Dada and custom-made details.

Such a mix of styles testifies to the creative courage of designers who sought inspiration everywhere: in the work of the Memphis group, Milanese vintage, Oriental traditions and modern Moroccan culture. They managed to emphasize the industrial character of the building through the prism of modern trends and vintage chic.
