What is boho style?

After its triumph in the fashion world, bohemian style is now also conquering the interior design sector and enchanting with its very special flair. But what exactly is boho style?

Everyone associates something different with the bohemian lifestyle: while some immediately think of hippie clothing and unconventional looks, others see boho style as a way of life and a feeling of fun and freedom. In fact, boho is all that and much more: the term comes from the French word bohème and means something like informality. And this is exactly what is reflected in boho style decoration.


The origin of the boho style

In the 19th century, the term "boho" was used to describe intellectuals and artists who were in favour of casual living. Fringe groups consisting of painters, poets and sculptors were able to use the boho style to express their striving for freedom and rebellion against bourgeois norms. Wild patterns, bright colours and creative design elements were used to underline this demarcation.


The basics: These colours, shapes and materials are typical for boho style decoration

Today, boho style creates a combination of creativity and individuality, stands for romantic charm and brings cosiness and harmony into your home. Whether in fashion or in your furnishings: boho style makes your new look something very special. Away from norms and rules, you can give free rein to your ideas and really let off steam. As a free spirit, globetrotter or dreamer, you are sure to fall in love with our boho style decor.

So what exactly is the boho interior design style? Natural materials such as wood, feathers and grasses are used for the bohemian living style. Subtle beige and brown tones form the basis and are mixed with playful accents such as fringes and bold, bright colours. If you are looking for a clearly structured design and straight lines, you are in the wrong place here. Because: the bohemian living style thrives on contradictions. A mix of

  • old and new
  • light and dark
  • discreet and eye-catching

is what makes boho-style decoration so exciting.

But even if you want the boho look to be informal and free, there are a few things to bear in mind: If you want to bring the bohemian style into your home, read the following tips.


Boho chic home decor - you should focus on these colours

The boho style in your home stands and falls with the choice of colours. To ensure that your home radiates harmony and cosiness, you should therefore carefully prepare the choice of the right colours. Light and earthy tones such as beige, brown or khaki are ideal as basic colours. You should mainly use these colours for walls and large furnishings so that your room radiates calm and doesn't overwhelm the viewer.

Bright colours such as a lush green, warm bordeaux or bright yellow can be used wonderfully as colour accents. They bring cheerfulness and fun into your home and can also be combined with each other as desired. Our coral red diamond blanket made from recycled plastic can be the next eye-catcher on your sofa and forms a great contrast to the discreet table runner in dark grey.

You should consider the following tips when choosing your colours:

  • Avoid dark colours: Individual accents in dark colours are fine, but too much can create an unpleasant atmosphere. The room then quickly appears gloomy and oppressive.
  • It shouldn't be too colourful: Play it safe and opt for a maximum of 4 colours. It's better to play with different shades of one colour to create accents. Even if bright colours are always welcome in boho style, too many of them will make your home look restless and disrupt the overall harmony.
  • Monochrome boho style is also possible: Not into bright colours? No problem. Clear furnishings in white, beige and black, complemented by subtle patterns and oriental ornaments, create a complete contrast to the colourful hippie boho and can do without bright colours and eye-catching accents.

The right patterns for your boho style decoration

Certain patterns and colourful prints are also part of the boho concept. Home textiles such as macramé, batik or patchwork are particularly popular with boho home accessories. Boho style decoration without these patterns? Absolutely impossible. Embroidery and fringing are also popular. For the perfect bohemian furnishing style, you shouldn't be afraid of a wild mix of patterns, as this is exactly what embodies the joie de vivre of absolute free spirits. For example, what do you think of our sustainable cuffley runner rug with playful fringing?


These materials bring cosy boho style into your home

Cosy soft blankets, robust rugs and handmade tablecloths: Your boho decor should not only be beautiful to look at, but also durable and cosy. Natural materials such as wood, linen and rattan are very popular.
