Japanese
Japanese wall art in long, narrow formats - framed canvas prints inspired by traditional Japanese aesthetics, from cherry blossoms and misty mountains to torii gates, koi and flowing brushstrokes. Tall vertical pieces echo the proportions of traditional hanging scrolls, bringing quiet elegance to hallways, bedrooms and calm, minimalist spaces.
The collection spans Japandi and minimalist styles alongside classic Japanese art prints.
Japanese wall art - frequently asked questions
Sizing, hanging height and the questions we are asked most.
Why is Japanese art often tall and narrow?
Because it descends from the kakemono - the hanging scroll, mounted on silk and hung in an alcove, designed to be tall and slim so it could be rolled and stored. That proportion is still the natural shape for the tradition, which is why a vertical canvas suits Japanese subjects more readily than a square frame does.
What is Japandi style?
Japandi combines Japanese restraint with Scandinavian warmth - natural materials, muted palettes, simple forms and generous empty space. In wall art it means quiet compositions in soft neutrals rather than bright colour, which is why Japandi and traditional Japanese prints sit so comfortably in the same collection.
What subjects are in Japanese wall art?
Cherry blossom, misty mountains, torii gates, koi, cranes and flowing brushwork, alongside more contemporary pieces in the Japandi and minimalist vein. Blossom and mountain scenes are the easiest to place in a bedroom or living room; torii gates and bold brushwork make more of a statement and suit a hallway or study.
Do you sell polka dot or contemporary Japanese wall art?
Yes - the collection includes dot-pattern and organic-form compositions alongside traditional Japanese subjects like blossom, mountains and brushwork. The dotted pieces are bold and graphic, and suit a plain wall where the repetition has room to read. Every design is original, made to order in long horizontal and vertical formats.
What rooms suit Japanese wall art?
Bedrooms and hallways take it most naturally - the vertical scroll proportion suits a narrow wall, and the muted palettes suit a room meant for rest. It also works well in a study or a meditation space. Living rooms suit the wider horizontal mountain and blossom scenes better than the tall scroll formats.
