Japandi Style: Steps to Ensure Consistent Material Quality

Source all wood from the same supplier and batch, and request samples to approve the finish before installation. This helps maintain a uniform look.

Inspect the weave density, feel the texture for smoothness, and check for any irregularities. Opt for fabrics with certifications like Oeko-Tex to ensure they are free from harmful substances.

Explore local artisan markets, design stores specializing in Japanese or Scandinavian imports, or online platforms that feature Singaporean ceramic artists.

Look for tatami mats made from high-quality Igusa rush with a tightly woven construction. Consider adding a dehumidifier to your space to help prevent mold and mildew.

Check the materials used (metal, glass, etc.), the quality of the wiring and electrical components, and ensure the fixtures meet Singapores safety standards. Look for certifications like PSB or CE.
