5 Ways to Turn Your Home Into A Natural Retreat
Decorating your space with nature-inspired décor that evokes a soothing, tranquil feeling can have a huge impact on your happiness at home. From the colours you choose to the materials of your furniture and accents, our tips will help you create a calming yet stylish retreat that celebrates the beauty of the great outdoors.
Colour Palette: Nature’s Neutrals
Creating a homey haven begins with a colour palette inspired by nature’s neutrals – think ivory, cream, caramel, amber and gold. These rich and earthy tones are associated with nurturing and dependability, making them the perfect choice for adding warmth and coziness to your living space.
The Return of Rattan
Once thought of as just for the backyard, natural materials like rattan and wicker have earned their rightful places in our homes. From dining chairs to wall mirrors, lamps and more, this trending material is taking over, and we’re all about it. Naturally textured and pleasing to the eye, rattan and wicker cozies up your space with a subtle nod to the outdoors. For a touch of trend on a smaller scale, rattan baskets, trays and lanterns will be right at home in your nature-inspired retreat.
Go all-in on Texture
With a palette of neutrals, you have full permission to go all-in on texture. From thick embroidery on toss pillows and rugs to woven poufs and throws, eye-catching texture adds depth and interest to your nature-inspired home.
Reflect Sun-Kissed Style
Strategically hanging mirrors will allow more light to bounce around the room and make the most of the natural sunlight streaming in. Hang a mirror opposite south-facing windows or on the wall next to east-facing windows to give your retreat a sunny boost!
Pampas Makes Perfect
Feathery and undeniably gorgeous, faux pampas grass is our favourite botanical to complete your natural retreat. Bringing all the style with none of the shedding, faux pampas grass makes a bohemian statement in any room and pairs perfectly with a textured vase.
