Japandi Sideboard — Simple, Natural & Functional
Japandi Sideboard — Clear Design, Warm Material
A Japandi sideboard is more than just storage — it's a piece of furniture that defines a room. The Japandi philosophy of "less, but better" translates into a sideboard with clean lines, natural materials, and hidden details like soft-close drawers, invisible handles, and a solid wood top. The result is a piece of furniture that looks calm and thoughtful in any home.
Our Japandi sideboards are available in light oak, walnut, and combinations of wood with black metal. The clean fronts without handles give a serene look. Soft-close drawers and doors prevent noise and contribute to the peaceful atmosphere that Japandi demands. The solid wood surface is suitable for decoration: a ceramic vase, a book, and a few stones — nothing more is needed.
A Japandi sideboard looks beautiful in the living room as a TV unit with a top, but also in the bedroom as a dresser or an addition to the wardrobe. Combine it with a Japandi dining table in the same wood type for a consistent look throughout your home.

Buying guide: choosing the right sideboard
- Standard height: 75-90 cm — practical as a side table and for a mirror above it. Lower (60-70 cm) provides a calmer effect in the room.
- Depth: 35-45 cm is standard. Deeper than 45 cm is difficult to fit into a narrow hallway or bedroom.
- Width vs. wall space: leave at least 40 cm on both sides for visual breathing room. A sideboard that fills the entire wall appears heavier.
- Mirror above the sideboard: bottom edge of the mirror about 10-15 cm above the top. Mirror width = 50-75% of the sideboard width for good proportions.
- Storage space: combine drawers (for small items) with doors (for larger storage). At least 2 drawers for daily use.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a Japandi sideboard?
A Japandi sideboard combines the Japanese Wabi-Sabi philosophy (natural materials, authentic textures) with Scandinavian functionalism (clean lines, clever storage). Typical features: light wood, hidden handles, soft-close mechanism.
Which wood is best suited for a Japandi sideboard?
Light oak is the most typical choice for Japandi: warm, neutral, and timeless. Walnut adds a warmer, luxurious tone. Avoid wood that is too dark — this creates more of an industrial than a Japandi feel.
Can a Japandi sideboard also serve as a TV unit?
Yes — a low Japandi sideboard with a height of 50-60 cm is ideal as a TV unit in a Japandi living room. The low silhouette matches the close-to-the-ground aesthetic of Japandi design.
How do I combine a Japandi sideboard with the rest of the room?
Choose the same wood type as your floor or dining table. Keep the top bare or minimally decorated: a vase, a plant, an object. Use muted colors for textiles.
Are the drawers soft-close?
Our Japandi sideboards come standard with soft-close drawers and doors. This aligns with the calm, noiseless atmosphere of a Japandi interior.
