- Absolute Naturalness
Boho style is all about natural and raw materials like wood and leather. Choose them whenever possible, then add metal or glass accents for a fun touch. Natural materials like jute and hemp also help add a boho touch to your living room!
- Macrame Wall Decoration
Macrame is one of the hallmarks of bohemian style, whether it's a knotted wall hanging or a plant basket. It can be created in a variety of patterns and styles, so you'll always find something to suit your space.
- Multiple layers of color and material
Using a variety of materials and textures is key to achieving bohemian style. Think jute rugs, wicker chairs, chunky throws or patterned floor pillows. Use fabrics like suede, velvet and corduroy for throws and pillows, adding depth to the space.
- Hanging Chair
What would a classic boho living room be without a hanging chair? The perfect place to relax, with its cozy and quirky feel, it can serve as a reading nook, a meditation area, or just a place to unwind. Add pillows and a blanket, and you won’t want to leave it behind.
- String Lights
Try adding boho lighting to your space for a more relaxing atmosphere. String lights are great for this. You can also choose warm lighting fixtures like lanterns or wall sconces to create ambiance. They will create the perfect backdrop for your boho furniture to shine.
- Boho Coffee Table
Boho tables are often made from wood, and they come in a variety of textures and colors. The table above is inspired by African ceremonial stools and is hand-carved from solid mango wood. Its design evokes a sense of calm and relaxation, giving this living space a particularly natural feel.
- Big Mirror
Whether you have a boho style or not, a mirror instantly brightens up a space, making it appear larger and airier. Add a large round mirror to your boho living room for an airy, bright feel. If you’re going for a classic boho design, choose a mirror with a straw tassel or rattan border.
- Patterned Carpets
A tried and tested way to warm up a boho living room is with rugs. Consider shag patterns, tribal and oriental prints, tie-dye, and bright colors when choosing a boho rug. Don’t worry if you can’t decide on just one; layering rugs is a welcome element in boho style!
- Vintage
In a boho living room, the most popular pieces of furniture are those with history, such as an antique wall cabinet, an old coffee table or a vintage rug. So if you have any of these items, why not give them a new life by using them in your decor?
If you’re looking for inspiration to decorate your space with boho style furniture and accessories, try out as many different ideas as you can. For example, you can create a very unique boho living room with lots of different patterns and colors. You can also just add a few boho pieces to your existing decor for a bohemian look.
