Last updated on · ⓘ How we make our designs
A fireplace in Japandi style living room has a way of making the whole space exhale before you do. Check out these looks!
This collection explores that calm, sculptural look from every angle, from suspended black fireplaces and tadelakt hearths to stone, plaster, concrete, and slate surrounds that quietly steal the show. Each room balances clean lines with just enough drama to keep minimalism from feeling sleepy.
You’ll see how pale wood, soft boucle, woven textures, low seating, and paper lighting work together to create warmth without clutter. Some spaces lean airy and gallery-like, others moodier and more cocooning, but they all keep that signature Japandi mix of restraint and comfort.
There’s also plenty of inspiration in the details, including shoji-style screens, built-ins, sunken lounges, courtyard views, and layered natural materials that blur the line between serene and seriously stylish. Products used in the designs are provided too, so bringing the look home is a little easier and a lot less guesswork.

A suspended matte black fireplace anchors the room with quiet drama, hovering above a bed of smooth stones like it knows it looks good. The low wood platform, simple tea table, and floor cushions keep the layout grounded and calm, while the curved boucle chair softens all that clean geometry.
Raw concrete walls and oversized windows give the space its loft-like edge, but the mood stays serene thanks to the shoji-style screen, pampas stems, and the mossy garden just outside. It’s a beautiful mix of Japanese restraint and Scandinavian warmth—minimal, soulful, and very hard to leave.
