The Art of Bohemian Home Decor

First things first, what is bohemia aesthetic?

Boho, or bohemian, style is a fusion of unconventional, bold, and laid-back elements used to decorate the space. It often features a combination of diverse natural materials, numerous colours, patterns, and textures.

Achieving this globally appreciated and loved dreamy, cosy aesthetic you see on social media can be tricky. But why feel overwhelmed when our guide to boho decor is here to show you everything to create a stunning and inviting bohemian home with lots and lots of plants?

To make things easy, we've simplified things for you with six different categories, so feel free to follow along or mix and match to your heart's content. We don't mind; let's dive into the world of boho!

Hues to Choose: Selecting a Colour Palette for Your Boho Home Garden

Bohemian aesthetics can be described as free-spirited, artistic, and creative. When choosing a colour palette for your boho-themed space, you can let your creativity run wild and play with colours and patterns as much as you want! The boho style usually goes with neutral, earthy, and subdued tones to complement the plants and greenery in your space rather than neons and pastels.

We have included some galleries of boho-themed interiors with recommended colour options to give you a glimpse into this style.

We suggest looking to Pinterest and Instagram for more inspiration.

Play With Patterns: The World of Boho Patterns

This aesthetic is contrary to the minimal and modern way of styling. Patterns and textures bring life to your boho-themed space, so ideally, it is recommended to play around with patterns and experiment with what goes with your preference and aesthetics. Boho patterns are all about mixing and matching different prints to create a unique and eclectic look. You can play with bold graphic prints, delicate florals, leaf patterns, tribal designs, and so much more. The best part is that there are no rules, so you can have fun experimenting with different patterns until you find the perfect combination!

Now, if you're worried about going overboard with patterns, don't fret. A good rule of thumb is to start with a neutral base and then add patterns gradually. For example, you might start with a neutral sofa and then add patterned throw pillows, a textured rug, a patterned tapestry, or hanging plants. Mixing different patterns is also totally okay, like pairing a floral print with a bold stripe or a geometric pattern with a paisley.

Just remember to have fun with it and let your creativity run wild!
