Japandi Shower Ideas: How to Create a Serene Shower with a Spa-Like Vibe

A Japandi shower exudes simplicity, tranquility , and warmth . The shapes are rounded, the controls are concealed , and all metal parts are the same color. Aquanello Eterna is designed for this style: rain showers, built-in thermostats, shower rods , and complete shower sets— all featuring the same sleek design and available in four colors.

A Japandi shower is all about tranquility and simplicity: a round rain showerhead, a built-in thermostat , and a single metal color. Below ,you’ll discover how to chooseeach component .

What makes a shower Japandi?

Japandi combines Japanese simplicity with Scandinavian warmth. In the shower ,this means a few carefully chosen components, soft colors, and natural materials. Everything serves a purpose, without unnecessary details that drawattention .

The rain showerhead: choose the right size

The rain shower is the centerpiece of a Japandi shower. Aquanello Eterna offers round showerheads in three sizes:

Bigger isn’t always better. In a small shower ,a showerhead that’s too large can look overwhelming and cause more splashing . That’s why you should choose a size that fits the available space, not simply the largest size.

Wall-mounted or ceiling-mounted?

A wall-mounted arm extends the showerhead from the wall and creates a classic look. With a ceiling-mounted arm , the showerhead hangs straight down from above, leaving the wall completely unobstructed .

For a Japandi bathroom , a ceiling-mounted arm offers the most minimalist look. A wall-mounted arm is often more practical when the ceiling is high or ceiling installation isdifficult .

Hidethe mechanics

The most serene showers are those where the technical components remain out of sight . With a built-in thermostat ,the mixing mechanism is housed in the wall, and only a compact control panel is visible.

The thermostat maintains a constant water temperature , providing extra comfort and ease of use for the whole family.

Aquanello Eterna offers complete built-in shower sets in which all components fittogether perfectly :

• Concealed thermostat sets with a rain showerhead measuring 20, 25, or 30 cm

• Sets with or without a hand shower

• Sets with a ceiling arm for the cleanest possible wallappearance

• Built-in thermostats with one or two valves, for showers with a hand shower

• Shower columns for those who prefer a surface-mounted solution without built-in components

Built-in components must be planned before the walls are tiled. Therefore ,involve your installer in the designearly on .

If you can’t install the components in the wall , a surface-mounted thermostat is a simple alternative, also available in all four colors.

The handheld showerhead: keep it sleek

A handheld showerhead is practical and should blendseamlessly into the overall design of a Japandi shower .

A slim slide bar with a round hand shower and a smooth shower hose creates a clean, streamlined look. With a matching holder , the hand shower stays neatly in place without any extra loose fasteners.

All components are available in the same colors as the rain showerhead, so the entire shower set forms a cohesive whole .

Choose one color for the entire shower

The four colors of Aquanello Eterna are available for the entire shower range: showerheads, shower arms, shower rods, hand showers, hoses, and complete sets.

This allows you to choose a single color and perfectly coordinateall components .

Water spots and fingerprints are often less noticeable on matte and brushed surfaces than on high-gloss metal. This helps the shower maintaina well-maintained appearance for longer .

The walls and floor surrounding the shower

Japandi showers look their best with soft, natural materials. Think matte stone-look tiles , ceramic tiles, warm white , and sand tones.

You might also add a wooden accent , such as a teak bench or a wooden shelf outside the wet area.

Keep patterns subtle and choose colors that are close to each other . This way , the shower fixtures become a calm part of the design, rather than the most eye-catching elements in the space.

How to Create a Japandi Shower in 6 Steps

1. Choose a soft color for the walls and floor.

2. Select a single metal color for all shower fixtures.

3. Choose a rain showerhead that fits the dimensions of the shower space.

4. Decide between a wall-mounted or ceiling-mounted showerarm.

5. Choose a built-in thermostat or a complete built-in shower set and plan the installation before tiling.

6. Add a slim shower rod and a round hand shower in thesame color.

Mistakes that disruptthe serene look

• Choosing a rain shower that’s too large for the shower space

• Combiningdifferent metal colors

• Leaving pipes and faucets exposed when a built-in solution ispossible

• Ordering built-in components only after the walls have been tiled

• Choosing glossy shower fixtures with lots of decorative details

How to Keep Your Shower Looking Its Best

A matte or brushed shower requires little maintenance . Wipe down the showerhead, shower rod , and controls regularly with a soft cloth. Use mild soap and warm water , and avoid scouring pads and harsh cleaning products.

Dry the surfaces after use to prevent water spots , especially on matte black finishes.

Is the water flow becoming uneven? The spray holes may be clogged with limescale. Clean them carefully according to the manufacturer’smaintenance instructions .
