Wabi-Sabi Interior Design that is rooted in Wabi-Sabi Architectural Aesthetics: Bringing Inner-Inspiration to the Architecture of Singapore.

Singapore is a busy city and most of the time requires calming interiors that allow one to breath away from the chaos. One of the most adaptable if not the most poignant interior design philosophies is wabi-sabi and it aims to satisfy that need. It is arguably derived from Japanese aesthetics which center around the appreciation of simplicity, imperfection and naturalism. Singaporean homes which have these attributes feel alive with history and nature. And Local INN. has made it their mission to introduce Singaporean homes and offices to this soulful style. They strive to make spaces blends effortlessly into nature and create relaxing turmoil-free.

What Sabai Design is all about?

Wabi-sabi goes far beyond design as an aesthetic. It is an appreciation philosophy that goes out and studies the things that are impermanent, incomplete or imperfect. In contrast to modern architectural styles, which often prioritize elegance and balance, wabi-sabi interiors do not conceal flaws because they are in favor of natural textures and asymmetry.

The key ceramic features go:

• Wood and other raw materials: Unfinished stone, wooden elements, linen fabrics, and clay accents.

• Collage Panels Horizontally Stretched: Colors are chosen specifically to keep the atmosphere tranquil and prevent distracting.

• Items with Utterly Visible Flaws: Handcrafted items that are meant to have imperfections in them.

• Module For Bright Texture: The items are arranged in a way, allowing the area to be free from clutter while also being warm and welcoming.

Local INN.terior translates all these to contemporary Singaporean spaces that are efficient, beautiful, and mindfulness-inclined, for their designs are soulful.
