How to adopt a bohemian decoration for your interior?
The bohemian style is becoming more and more trendy these days. We find this warm, colorful and natural side. What could be better than a bohemian spirit inside to feel relaxed on returning home? 🍂
Bohemian, what is it?
The bohemian style appeared at the beginning of the 19th century in France, when travellers, writers and artists settled in less bourgeois districts of Paris in order to find less expensive possibilities for their dwellings. Their culture has given rise to another decoration trend that shows their wandering, creative and warm lifestyle. This style has become over time "chic" thanks to its original beauty. The Bohemian style owes its name to these artists and travelers and aims to change the "norms" by rejecting the rules of the time.
This style of decoration is characterized by furniture and decorations made of natural materials (rattan, straw, etc.) and a natural side with plants. There are also a large number of warm colors (often orange) or on the contrary a fairly neutral decoration with white, wood color, and greenery. The mind must be relaxed, so we can add hammocks, hanging chairs, Buddha statuettes...
