How to make a Zen room

Zen style offers us a return to balance, seeking to reflect harmony, order and relaxation throughout the space. Oriental philosophy is present in the Zen style, prioritizing the natural elements and almost unaltered by nature. In this sense, the room is the perfect place to start decorating with Zen style because it is the space of rest and everyday relaxation. Decorating a room with Zen style should take into account:
