The hottest trend to date is incorporating Japanese Minimalism, with the Scandinavian and Biophilic design with a Murphy Bed; exemplifying the sleek and uncluttered aesthetic this movement is all about.


What is Japanese Minimalism and the Scandinavian Aesthetic?


One of the most up and coming trends of 2021 is Japanese Minimalism; also termed Japandi. With its rustic and simplistic composition, Japanese minimalism follows the concept of less is more.

Similar to Japandi, the Scandinavian aesthetic exhibits neutral palettes, minimalist décor and modern furnishings. Both interior styles boast, natural textures such and wood to bring the outdoors in and create an element ambience inside. As well as this, these themes tend to follow white walls, with pops of colors and a sense of warmth in any living space.


Creating a Timeless and Harmonious Aesthetic for your Murphy Bed


Creating the timeless and harmonious aesthetic that the Japandi and Scandinavian style promote can be hard to do. Using your spare room as a home office during the ongoing pandemic is currently very popular. Following the concept of less is more, a great idea would be to place a Murphy Bed into your spare room so it can be doubled up as both a bedroom and your daily office space; therefore, nothing is compromised and the Japandi approach is in full force. Thus, adhering to an uncluttered environment, with a contemporary and clean overall finish. Not only have you got a peaceful place to work, you have an extra bed when guests come and stay.


Textured furniture is becoming more popular in 2021, bringing surface detail to otherwise simple MDF - particularly the style of tongue and groove. This decorative joinery would match nicely with the Scandinavian approach of simple, white and rustic design. With many murphy beds being completely customizable to fit the aesthetic of your room; the textured furniture can be placed within the design to match this trendy style giving you your own individual murphy bed.
