Beauty of Imperfection: The Wabi Sabi Style

Even though Wabi Sabi is trending in interiors, this approach is not new.

Essential Guide: How to Choose Furniture for a Wabi Sabi Project?

And how about the furniture to create this sense of perfect imperfection? As seen, Wabi Sabi in interior design is all about embracing beauty in meaningful things – from the asymmetry and weathered textures to the natural materials. The furniture choices help set the tone for a Wabi Sabi style and play an essential role in its interiors.

In a Wabi Sabi interior Style project, opt for pieces that carry a story, materials associated with nature, and organic forms that remind the beauty of imperfection and life. It is also important to highlight that quality is essential; for that, invest in high-end and craftsmanship furniture pieces to reflect the essence of the style in your project. Check out this essential guide before selecting the piece that will complete your Wabi Sabi interior:

1. Welcome Natural Materials: Opt for natural wood, stone, and metal furniture. Look for pieces that showcase these materials’ raw, unprocessed textures and grains, which will help embrace imperfection’s beauty in your design and elevate your Wabi Sabi aesthetic;

2. Prioritize Authenticity: Remember that the story is also beautiful; select furniture with signs of wear, patina, or even slight damage; imperfections that tell a story and will contribute to the overall Wabi Sabi narrative;

3. Focus on Minimalism: Keep the design simple and clean. Select furniture with clean lines and straightforward designs, and avoid overly ornate or elaborate pieces;

4. Embrace Asymmetry: Celebrate the beauty of asymmetry and irregularity as the Wabi Sabi. Look for furniture with curvy forms or designs that break the traditional symmetry to create a sense of organic harmony.

5. Seek Handcrafted Pieces: Handmade furniture pieces showcase the artisan’s touch and embody human imperfection. Opt for handcrafted pieces that share an artistic touch while embracing quality and history.

6. Prefer Earthy and Muted Tones: Embrace earthy and neutral tones in your furniture selection; this will help create a harmonious space with a sense of comfort and natural connection.
