Best Tips to Achieve a Boho Style at Home

Layered patterns, a mix of colours and a combination of different furniture styles make the boho design style a great interior design option for a rich space, full of visual interest and a relaxed spirit.

The key design principles of the Boho style

#1 Simple warm & earthy tones

Start with a simple warm base colour to create a solid foundation for your boho canvas, it will make it easier to add bright colours and patterns, later.

Combining and layering colours, motifs and textures is what makes this style unique. Think dyed textiles and patterns from all over the world, in the forms of throws, cushions, hanging tapestries and rugs.

#2 More is more

The key to boho style is to master the mix and match. Natural materials like rattan and sisal are combined with silk, crochet, and macramé for a cosy, and globally inspired hangout.

Vintage and second-hand furniture that seem to have been collected over time, are a must. Even better if they bring together bits and pieces from a persons’ life journey.

#3 Add some greenery!

You can’t think about Boho without thinking about greenery, and plenty of it! It’s also a very affordable way to create a relaxed vibe while adding dimension to your room. Think hanging rattan baskets, sculptural planters, and plants in all shades and shapes. The more, the better!
