Not only can the colors evoke different emotions, but the details of the furniture can influence the tranquility or, on the contrary, the preoccupation of the mind.

Described as the Japanese equivalent of feng shui, this decorative art consists of creating harmony between a space and the beings that fill it by getting rid of what is bulky and superfluous. More than going to the simplest, it is a question of adopting a minimalist decor where almost all the objects would necessarily have a use.
