Boho furnishings: a dream home with personality 

Do you fancy an unconventional interior? Then the boho aesthetic is right for you! Boho, short for bohemian, is rooted in the lifestyle of free-spirited artists and intellectuals of the 19th century. They rejected conventions and celebrated a non-conformist lifestyle. And this is exactly what characterizes the boho furnishing style: It is an eclectic mix of different styles, colors and materials. The most diverse cultures and historical eras can and should be combined with one another. This makes the furnishings particularly individual and personal! In today's MöbelFirst magazine, you will find all the information you need about this furnishing trend. Plus: we'll show you how to transform your home into a boho dream.

How to create a boho-style home

The color palette of the boho style consists of warm and natural colors. Earthy tones form the basis of the furnishings: Beige, brown, terracotta are the right choice here! The walls and ceilings in particular should be designed in these colors. Is a simply painted wall too boring for you? Then why not embellish your walls with an alternative? A wipe-clean technique, for example, creates a good basis for the boho flair. The uneven pattern on the wall gives the room a dynamic and structured look. Please note: Large furniture such as sofas or beds should be chosen in earthy tones. Boho style accents are set with bold yet natural colors. You can integrate green, yellow or even black into the room. However, avoid bright colors. These detract from the overall look of boho furnishings.

A connection to nature is essential for the boho look. So be sure to choose furniture made from natural materials! Furniture made of wood, leather and linen is particularly suitable. These bring warmth and texture to the room and can be mixed and matched. To create even more texture, we recommend rattan furniture! In particular armchairs and chairs with wicker elements can be integrated perfectly. Be unconventional here and repurpose outdoor furniture for your indoor area. Do you love vintage pieces? Perfect! Use them to achieve the boho look. Pieces of furniture with history give the room character and individuality.

Decoration as a key element of the boho look

Decency is out of place in the boho furnishing style! Go wild and mix and match to your heart's content. But be sure to stick to the boho color palette to maintain the overall impression. We recommend the following decorative elements:

• Patterned textiles: cushions with floral designs combined with geometric shapes? Yes, absolutely! The wilder the pattern mix, the better.
• Different textures: opt for baskets, cushions with appliqués or fringes and cozy rugs. The different textures create variety and coziness.
• Plants: Houseplants are an absolute must-have in any boho interior! They bring life to the room and emphasize the connection to nature. You can also use hanging plants - these are very typical of the look. Don't have green fingers? Then go for the dried variety! All kinds of dried flowers and dried grasses in floor-to-ceiling vases work well.
• Handmade articles: You are welcome to use handmade decorative items! This brings individuality and personality into your home. A hand-knotted macramé wall hanging, for example, serves as an eye-catcher in the room.
