Japan Picture Frames Market Drivers and Opportunities

Increase in Home Décor and Interior Designing Activities Favors Market Growth

According to the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism in Japan, ~US$ 0.17 million pre-owned residential real estate transactions occurred in Japan in 2022. As people get these houses at affordable rates, they pay more attention to renovating them to meet their requirements. The rising residential infrastructure in the country also triggers the demand for home décor products such as picture frames.

Picture frames displaying family photographs, travel snaps, or art are used to decorate homes, especially on undecorated walls. Pictures and artworks are used to decorate the walls of bedrooms, kitchens, bathrooms, hallways, offices, and restaurants. With the increasing emphasis on personalized interior design and home decoration, the demand for unique and aesthetically pleasing photo frames has surged in Japan. The “Japandi” home and interior decor style—a combination of traditional Japanese and Scandinavian (or Scandi) architectural elements used in interior design—is trending in Japan. Japandi symbolizes a harmonious "east meets west" style by emphasizing utility, minimalism, and comfort, along with promoting a calm and uncluttered approach to decoration. Moreover, with its deep appreciation for nature and craftsmanship, the trend has the potential to bolster the demand for picture frames in the country.
