Bohemian style homes are perfect for those wanting to create an eclectic, earthy and interesting space filled with beautiful details. Drawing from Moroccan influences, it’s one of the most unique interior design trends that also gives you the ability to really showcase your personality through the styling of your home.
When it comes to creating a tasteful bohemian home, it all comes down to finding that perfect balance of colour and texture. Bohemian interior design is all about mixing and matching, whilst still keeping the overall looked clean and refined. It can be a tricky style to get just right, so we thought we’d share a few tips and some visual inspiration to help you create the perfect bohemian home below!

Use an earthy colour palette
Bohemian styling is all about warmth and texture. We recommend using an earthy colour palette to really bring the outdoors in - natural timbers, rattan, jute, hessian, leather and fresh greenery all work beautifully for a bohemian style home.
Try to incorporate these earthy tones throughout each area of your home to tie the look together harmoniously and keep the look consistent. Some of our favourite decor pieces for a bohemian style home include natural jute rugs, potted plants in woven baskets, bamboo chairs and Moroccan ottomans. Metallic accents of bronze, gold and silver can also work well as a contrast to these earthy tones, to create a more high end ‘bohemian luxe’ feel.

Mix and match patterns and textiles
An eclectic mix of patterns and textiles is an essential element of any bohemian home! You can introduce different patterns throughout your cushions, bed linen, artwork, rugs and accessories to create an authentic bohemian feel.
Any textiles that feature fringing, tassels, leather, hand-beading or macrame will work perfectly in a bohemian home, like textured cushions or a fringed throw rug. Don’t be afraid to layer the different textiles on top of each other, too - just be sure to work with a consistent colour palette to avoid the materials clashing.

Choose decor with a difference
Decorating your home in a bohemian style is all about choosing unique and individual pieces that you love. Eccentric, artistic decor and accessories will help to make your space interesting and detailed - we love using quirky homewares to really bring this look to life.
When choosing furniture and decor for your bohemian home, try to steer away from generic designs and instead furnish your spaces with pieces that are perhaps a little bit different. This could mean a headboard or sofa upholstered in an interesting fabric, or a side table in a quirky shape or material. Bohemian design is all about your home telling a story, so use your styling to really express your individuality!
