Cherry blossom: Japanese beauty in a minimalist interior

The cherry blossom, or ‘sakura’ as it is called in Japan, is one of the country's most iconic symbols. Every year, thousands of people flock to Japan to admire the beautiful pink and white blossoms in full bloom. In recent years, we increasingly see the (artificial) cherry blossom (or cherry blossom) in modern interior styles such as Japandi and atmospheric lounges, shops and spas.

The meaning of cherry blossom

In Japan, cherry blossom symbolises impermanence and the beauty of the moment. Flowering often lasts only a few weeks, after which the blossoms slowly swirl to the ground (not with our cherry blossoms, of course!). This is seen in Japanese culture as a reminder to appreciate the present and live consciously. The appearance of the blossoms brings a sense of calm and serenity, exactly the elements that are also central to a Japandi or minimalist interior.

Japandi is the perfect match with cherry blossom

Japandi is an interior design style that combines the warmth and simplicity of Scandinavian design with the serene and functional aesthetic of Japanese interiors. This style revolves around neutral tones, natural materials and minimalist shapes. The subtle pink tones of cherry blossom add a soft, organic touch to a Japandi-style interior without disturbing its serenity. Consider an artificial branch cherry blossom in a ceramic vase on a wooden table or artificial tree in a pot made of natural materials.

Cherry blossom in your interior

You can incorporate the cherry blossom into your interior in various ways:

In a vase: place a large artificial branch in a sleek vase on a sideboard or coffee table for a subtle but impressive eye-catcher.
In a corner: An elegant artificial tree can fill an empty corner and create a calming atmosphere.
With artificial cherry blossom, you bring the timeless elegance of Japan into your home. Unlike a real cherry blossom, the leaves of our artificial branches and artificial plants do not fall out after just a few weeks. Whether you are a fan of Japandi or minimalism, this graceful blossom in pink or white is a wonderful addition to your interior!
