A Home Interior That Blends Japandi And Australian Design Inspiration

NAKO Design has designed a home in Edmonton, Alberta, that's influenced by both Japandi and Australian design styles.

NAKO Design has designed a home in Edmonton, Canada, that’s influenced by both Japandi and Australian design styles.

With a modern palette of black and white warmed with soft silver elm wood accents and texture, the home shows sophistication with a continuity of texture and tone throughout.

In the living room, there’s an accent wall of wood slats, a fireplace, and black cabinets, while a section of interior windows provides a view of the home office.

The living room shares an open floor plan with the dining area and kitchen. A wine rack with shelves angled in a chevron pattern creates an interesting focal point, while a round table is positioned below the minimalist pendant light.

The design of the kitchen has a highly contrasting black and white look. To soften the starkness, a curve in the super white dolomite countertop on the island is replicated onto a base with painted wood slats.

Absolute black granite is leathered on the back counter and splashback, which match the stained black wood cabinets and drawers. The kitchen also includes surface-mounted light fixtures and a wrap-around butler pantry.

Windows with thick black frames and a pivoting door enclose the home office, and at the same time, complement the black in the kitchen.

In the primary bathroom, grey and white tiles contrast with a black-on-black vanity, while curves are added with arched mirrors. A walk-in shower with a bench and a freestanding bathtub add a sense of elegance to this spa-inspired space.
