This first trend is inspired by the Japanese love of nature. This is an attempt caused by an increase in environmental awareness and a general preference for clean, organic choices in all parts of life, be it personal care and lifestyle products or revamped home and work designs. Due to the overpopulation of Japan most urban homes, especially in the capital of Tokyo, are on a smaller scale and do not possess their own gardens.

As well as the natural, the classic Japanese design encourages minimalism (the approach that encourages the idea that “less is more”), which is believed to have deep roots within ancient Zen philosophy. Sliding paper screens are commonly used in Japanese homes to divide rooms instil privacy while embracing the simplistic ideal, whilst creating a flexible space at the same time. With these style conventions, the interior décor inspires a feeling of tranquillity.
