Japandi Dining Table Styling Ideas
1: japandi farmhouse
The first Japandi dining table design I have for you is perfect if you want to add some rustic charm to your space while keeping the overall feel light and airy.
Any well-designed Japandi dining setup starts with the table. Your table acts as the focal point of your design and is usually the largest and most eye-catching element!
For this design, I chose a table with a gorgeous “chunky” build and distressed wood finish, along with a matching dining bench. I’ve been loving the trend of dining benches and the warm, communal feel they bring to a table setup.
You can style your Japandi dining table with benches on either side, or on one side and normal dining chairs opposite it for a gorgeous asymmetrical look. To brighten up this space, I added some off-white dining chairs and minimalist accent pieces.
2: sleek & minimal
My next design is for anyone who loves the sleek and simple aesthetic that Japandi design does so well. This setup features a slim and angular wood table with black dining chairs to add a sleek and modern feel.
To tie in with the black, I’ve added some simple wall art with a dark frame and decorative branches as a centerpiece. To cozy things up a little bit, you can also add some throw pillows to your dining chairs. For this design, I’ve chosen white ones to contrast nicely with the chairs.

3: warm & textured
Here’s a Japandi dining table ideal for small spaces or seating just a few people. This setup features an absolutely gorgeous pedestal-shaped table with a textured base to add some dimension to the space.
To match its sleek design, I’ve added some simple yet versatile black dining chairs. For my table centerpiece, I chose a small textured bowl and filled it with rattan balls. And to finish it off, I added a beautiful rattan light fixture for a warm and elegant table setup.

4: minimal elegance
This next one beautifully encapsulates the simplicity of Japanese design with the warmth and airiness of Scandinavian interiors.
We have a geometric racetrack table with a light wood finish which I’ve paired with white dining chairs to keep that feeling of openness flowing throughout the space.
To match the chairs, I’ve added a gorgeous Japanese style hanging lantern. For some coziness and texture, I’ve placed an oval woven rug beneath the table. I love adding a rug beneath a dining setup because it makes the area feel like its own contained, cozy little corner.
And to finish things off, I’ve added a beautiful neutral floral centerpiece in a dark vase for some contrast.

5: rattan lovers’ dream
If you love textured pieces and a cozy, inviting atmosphere, this next Japandi dining table is for you. This one features a warm, neutral color palette with different shades of tan and off-white that blend harmoniously to create a comforting and peaceful feel.
I kept this design simple to really let the texture on the chairs and light fixture shine through. As for a centerpiece, I chose a simple table runner and placed a long planter on top to bring a hint of nature to this setup.
6: modern & geometric
I’m loving the clean and contemporary feel of this next space! I wanted to give the rustic charm of Japandi style decor a modern touch.
So, I looked for pieces that had geometric elements like the cone shape of the table, black light fixture, the cylindrical bases of the chairs, and artwork featuring abstract shapes.
Another great tip to replicate this style in your space is to use lots of contrast. In this design, you’ll notice I have both very dark and very light pieces that balance each other out. This creates a sleekness ideal for modern and contemporary style interiors.

Anyone else absolutely in love with that chandelier? This design features gentle colors and curvatures that blend harmoniously into one beautiful dining table setup. For a lively touch, I’ve added some potted greenery along with elegant taper candles.

This design is perfect for lovers of light neutrals, curves, and textures.

For a centerpiece, I’ve chosen some some vases in varying neutral tones to add dimension to the space, along with some greenery.
11: light wood tones
Simplicity reigns supreme with this next setup. In Japandi, less is usually more! Warm, light wood tones create a welcoming and airy ambiance complemented by subtle accents of texture in the cherry blossom vase and hanging woven light fixture.
