The new Japandi style combines influences from Japanese and Scandinavian interior design. The name is a fusion of "Japan" and "Scandi". Although the two styles may initially appear to be opposites, closer inspection reveals many common features:
- Japanese-style bathrooms are characterised by their simplicity and functionality. This is also a feature of Scandinavian style. "Less is more" is the guiding principle.

- The contrasts between the two styles can also be combined to create striking effects. For example, the Scandinavian cosiness of the hygge trend together with Japanese minimalism.
