When it comes to decorating, imagination is always the best ally. Our home should reflect who we are and the energy we radiate. Although it does not seem so, all the elements that we include in it have a certain function; And no, I’m not just talking about the practical side.
There are decorations that convey one or another sensation. For example, bright colors give rooms more joy and movement, while popular minimalism seeks to make us relax when we enter them.
Every detail is important, and it is no different with curtains. Traditionally, we have always chosen to provide privacy rooms with classic curtains or blinds, but this season there is a trend that recommends something else – Japanese curtains.

Japanese curtain trend
The Japandi style has been in development for several years, but this 2025 tops the list of favorites. Its reasons are clear: by combining two great design schools – Nordic and Japanese – it can bring peace, relaxation and elegance.
The aim of this movement is to bring the balance of nature into the home. “The Japandi style seeks to inspire a healthy and meaningful lifestyle,” explains Shanty Wijaya to Architectural Digest Spain AD magazine. “He teaches us to discover beauty in imperfection; to establish deep connections with the earth and nature and enjoy the simple pleasures of life,” she reveals.
We can apply it in several ways. One of the simplest is to use neutral colors and straight lines that match the balance that brings so much. Another way is to choose natural materials without synthetic finishes, such as wood with knots and fibers.

Say goodbye to curtains
Although, if we are talking about methods, we could not miss one of the most defining elements of the Japanese tradition, the shields. To bring them into your home, one of the most popular ways is to replace boring curtains and put panels in their place.
We can choose wider or narrower shields, of course, always in neutral colors, it is important to create different layers between them that convey movement and perfection – two terms that describe nature.
Best of all, they fit into every room, as they combine the interior space with the exterior and create a special atmosphere. You can add other elements related to nature to this style, such as candles, incense or even ancient objects with a history.
