Japanese wallpaper designs are known for their beautiful, intricate patterns. Often featuring nature scenes such as mountains, rivers, and flowers, these wallpapers can bring a touch of the outdoors inside your home. Japanese wallpaper designs are also often very delicate, with thin lines and light colours. This makes them perfect for adding a bit of elegance to any room.
How to achieve Japanese interior style with Japanese-inspired wallpapers
1. Use light colors
The use of light colors is one of the most important aspects of achieving a Japanese interior style. Light colors create a feeling of spaciousness and tranquility, which are two key elements of Japanese design. If your home is small or you want to create a more calming atmosphere, consider using light-colored Japanese wallpapers.2. Use nature-inspired patterns
Another important element of Japanese interior design is the use of nature-inspired patterns. Japanese wallpapers often feature delicate floral or geometric patterns that are meant to evoke images of the natural world. Using these types of patterns in your own home can help to create a more serene and peaceful atmosphere.3. Keep the design simple
Japanese design is all about simplicity and minimalism, so it’s important to keep your wallpaper designs simple as well. Avoid using busy patterns or loud colors, and instead opt for subtlety and elegance. Japanese wallpapers are often very understated, so they can be easily incorporated into any type of home décor.4. Consider using shoji screens
Shoji screens are another key element of Japanese interior design. These screens are typically made from wood or paper, and they’re used to divide up space or provide privacy. Shoji screens can be used in conjunction with Japanese wallpapers to create a truly authentic Japanese look in your home.5. Use traditional Japanese motifs
If you really want to achieve a traditional Japanese look in your home, consider using some traditional Japanese motifs in your wallpaper designs. Motifs such as cherry blossoms, cranes, and samurai warriors are all commonly used in Japanese art and architecture, and they can add a touch of authenticity to your décor.

Muted greens, blush tones, and warm browns reflect traditional Japanese interiors and pair beautifully with wood accents. For a bolder look, incorporate indigo, black, or deep navy, often used in traditional prints. The key is to keep the palette harmonious and understated to reflect the elegance and simplicity of Japanese design.
Should I choose Japanese pattern or mural wallpaper?
It depends on the mood and style you're aiming for.
Japanese pattern wallpapers feature repeating motifs like waves, florals, or geometrics. They offer a subtle, timeless look that works well across entire rooms and pairs easily with modern or minimalist décor.
Japanese mural wallpapers depict scenic elements such as mountains, gardens, or traditional artwork, making them ideal for feature walls or creating a dramatic, immersive experience.
If you prefer a refined, layered backdrop, go with a pattern. If you want to tell a story or set a striking visual tone, a mural is the way to go.
