Japandi Dining Chair | Oak & Bouclé | Industrial Home
Japandi Dining Chair — Serenity, Warm Material & Honest Form
A Japandi dining chair is a conscious choice. No exaggerated shapes, no bright colors - instead, honest materials, warmth, and a silhouette that keeps the space in balance. In the Japandi philosophy, every piece of furniture counts: including the chair at the table. At Industrial Home, our Japandi chairs are fully configurable in frame, seat, and color.
Characteristics of a Japandi dining chair
Oak or bamboo in natural or lightly oiled finishes - that is the Japandi foundation. No dark walnut, no black - warm, light, and organic.
Teddy/bouclé in cream or warm sand, woven fabric in natural or light grey. Sometimes leather in cognac or olive green for a warm contrast.
Soft curves in the backrest, no harsh straight angles. The chair feels like coming home - not like sitting in an office.
No striking embellishments. The beauty lies in the proportions, the texture of the material, and the warmth of the combination.
Material and color combinations
| Frame | Seat | Atmosphere |
|---|---|---|
| Natural oak | Teddy cream | Classic Japandi - warm and light |
| White oiled oak | Bouclé light grey | Scandinavian-Japandi mix |
| Natural oak | Woven fabric olive green | Organic with a color accent |
| Dark oiled oak | Cognac leather | Wabi-sabi - warm and timeless |
| Natural oak | Velvet terra/pink | Modern Japandi with color |
Combine the Japandi chair with the right table
The Japandi chair pairs most beautifully with a natural or lightly oiled oak dining table, a walnut table with warm tones, or a ceramic tabletop in light grey or beige. Avoid sharp contrasts like glossy black steel with natural oak - that breaks the calm Japandi aesthetic.

Buying advice: choosing the right dining chair
- Seat height: standard 43-47 cm for a table of 75-78 cm height. Difference between table and chair: minimum 28 cm, ideal 30-32 cm.
- Seat depth: minimum 40 cm, comfortable 45-48 cm. Knees should hang freely.
- Backrest: 40-50 cm high for dining chairs — higher is more suitable for living room chairs.
- Width per chair: minimum 45 cm table length per chair, comfortable 60-70 cm.
- With armrests: check if the armrests fit under the tabletop (armrest height < table height minus 2 cm).
Tip: when in doubt, go for the larger size chair — a comfortable chair ensures longer and more enjoyable meals.
What is the difference between Japandi and Scandinavian design?+
Both styles are minimalistic and functional. The difference lies in the atmosphere: Scandinavian design is cooler and more functional, Japandi is warmer and more spiritual. Japandi uses more organic shapes, richer textures, and has a more meditative feel - less IKEA, more wabi-sabi.
What colors match the Japandi style?+
Natural, cream, warm grey, olive green, terra, and soft pink are typical Japandi colors. Avoid bright primary colors. White can work if it's a warm off-white, not cold stark white.
Are Japandi chairs also available with armrests?+
Some models in our Japandi assortment have an optional armrest. Check the configurator for options on your chosen model.
How do I maintain a teddy/bouclé seat?+
Brush with a soft brush after use to even out the texture. Dab stains with a damp cloth - do not rub. Avoid aggressive stain removers - always test first on a hidden spot.
Does a Japandi chair go with a dark walnut table?+
Yes, that can work beautifully. Choose a lighter chair color (cream teddy, light grey bouclé) to balance the contrast. An oak frame might be less logical then - consider a leg in warmer dark wood or natural steel.
Can I request a sample?+
Certainly. Send a message via the contact page with the colors you are considering - we will send you free samples.
