Everyone who practices Shibari or bondage in generally wants their own private space. So why not bring the experience into your own living room?
At the same time, it shouldn’t be a place that makes you feel unsafe or insecure – instead, it’s about creating a cozy and safe atmosphere. Because bondage is an intimate hobby based on consent.
So this living room shines in warm and bright accents that are repeated throughout. Contrast is provided by a raw, exposed brick wall.
The design is simple and straightforward with tatami mats, a reference to Japanese interior design elements. This also pays tribute to the origins of Shibari.
At the same time, the bare brick walls provide a modern interpretation in a classic European context.
While the tatami mats and the bamboo roll form the focal point of the room, individual accessories draw the eye to itself.
The color accents in yellow, red and black break up the sharpness of the bare brick walls. The result is a friendly and inviting atmosphere and an engaging room design.
Large, round seating elements invite you to sit together in conversational groups. This allows people to chat during and after the session or watch the tie-up together.
The design of this room can also be easily translated into a studio or loft. The spacious placement of the furniture and accessories allows for many variations.
The color concept was tested beforehand with a material collage and the color accents were chosen in relation to each other.
Designs like this are intended to show that bondage and other elements from the scene are by no means dark or filthy. In fact, quite the opposite. In most cases, it is a place of sharing, trust and being able to let yourself go.
With my company, I not only want to show what the world of BDSM looks like, but also what it could look like. Because nobody should have to hide their kinks these days, and especially no one should have to do so in rooms with the grim red and black design of the 80s.
