Interior Home Décor Trends Inspired by Nature

Nature-inspired home décor trends are a great way to bring warmth and texture into your home. Bringing a touch of the outdoors in gives your home a living, breathing natural element of je ne sais quoi that keeps people talking about your style and elegance. Earthy browns and sandy beiges with a touch of deep greens come together in an intentional layering of fabrics and prints that highlight beautiful wood and stone.

Here are a few examples of how to incorporate nature-inspired home décor trends into every room in your home.



Home Décor Trends Inspired by Nature: Living Room

Your living room is a place for relaxing and enjoying your leisure time, whether watching TV, reading a book, or chatting with friends and family. Its style should reflect this. Using nature-inspired décor, you can achieve a bright and welcoming space, and it all starts with the palette. Keep your base colors neutral, think white, cream, or beige. Then add color and interest with texture and materials inspired by nature.

The Bali Hai Quickship Shoreline Sofa with Fern Leaf Carvings by Tommy Bahama Home is perfect for this aesthetic. The sofa features rolled arms with elegantly curled fern wood accents, traditionally turned legs, and wooden base rail. It creates casual appeal with tropical accents. Add a plush rug with a botanical theme and pops of fresh green botanical print pillows and real plants.


Home Décor Trends Inspired by Nature: Bedroom

Warmer tones work well in a bedroom, but don't stray too far from neutrals. Choose a warm beige or brown-gray as a base shade. Use natural materials whenever possible, whether that be wood paneling, walnut flooring, or refreshing shell white finish on braided banana leaf, as seen on the Ocean Breeze Queen Siesta Key Woven Bed with Rattan and Banana Leaf by Tommy Bahama Home. The leather-wrapped bedposts and low-profile footboard add extra charm to the look.

Keep decorative accessories low-key in this space, since eliminating clutter will create a calming space to get a good night's sleep. Where possible, add fresh flowers or a real plant or two as the perfect accent accessory for your nature interior. A textured, natural rug is the perfect finishing touch in a bedroom.


Home Décor Trends Inspired by Nature: Dining

A great way to add nature-inspired style to your dining room is to freshen up your dining and tableware accessories. Textures are often forgotten on the dining room table. Choose table linen with tactile surfaces such as woven placemats that bring a natural feel to the setting.

The simple, elegant Sandcastle Dining Room Group from Hooker Furniture features clean lines and relaxed styling for a classic, timeless look. Hang a chandelier made of natural materials over the table. Add fresh, green foliage to the space, but not necessarily as a centerpiece. Rather, place a plant in the corner or use greenery in your place settings to bring in more natural elements.

When adding nature-inspired elements to your interior décor, keep it simple and clean. Layer in natural materials and textures and keep the color palettes simple.

Bedroom Makeover Ideas You'll Love

As one of the rooms in your home that you spend a lot of time in, your bedroom is your place to relax and unwind. It needs to be comfortable and calming enough to sleep in, but also functional and stylish. Since it’s a space that is primarily for you, it has to be a space that you love. Whether that means bringing in new furniture, changing or adding color, or adjusting the lighting to be more soothing, you can turn your bedroom into your sanctuary.

If you’re not sure where to start, try these bedroom makeover ideas to turn your bedroom into one of your favorite spaces in the house.


Use Soothing and Calming Colors

Your bedroom should be a retreat where you can feel at ease after a long and tiring day. Or just relax and sleep in on the weekends, if anyone does that anymore. Choosing soothing colors is a great way to turn your bedroom into a sea of tranquility. And since the bed is the centerpiece of your bedroom, this is a great place to start.

The Newport Transitional Queen Upholstered Pane Bed with Metal Ferrules from Hooker Furniture brings simple luxury into the space with its sophisticated and modern look. The simple, clean silhouette goes well with the ornate, channeled headboard and cabriole legs, giving you a look that you’ll love waking up to every day. And even more importantly, it’s a look so soothing, it will be a pleasure to fall asleep.

Keep the bedding colors simple and avoid bright colors or patterns that might be too energetic for sleep. Instead, add tactile elements, like a fringed or furred throw and sumptuous pillows.

Choose a Theme That Expresses Your Style

Need some inspiration? Choosing a theme might be just the thing for getting your bedroom just the way you like it. For bedrooms, one great theme is decorating it like a spa that will make the hustle and bustle outside your bedroom door fade away. A gentle gray or cream on the walls will keep the mood just right. Use some vintage touches, like a pretty chandelier and wooden furniture that melds traditional elements with modern, clean silhouettes.

Kick It Up with Bold Patterns

Neutrals aren’t for everyone, that’s what makes the world interesting. Take inspiration from the Victorian age, when bold patterns were used with wild abandon in every room in the house. If you want something more dramatic in your bedroom, try a wallpaper featuring a bold, botanical print in vibrant greens, blues, reds, yellows, and oranges. Find a duvet cover with a pattern in the same colors to complement the look. This will give your bedroom a look that is as distinctive as you are.


Be Inspired by the Sea

It’s easy to see why people connect the sea with tranquility and relaxation. The pale blue, barely there gray, and sandy beiges are naturally calming to your body and soul. It’s easier to relax when you feel like you are in a room that reflects the essence of the ocean.

Paint your walls a soft gray and layer in natural textures on your bed to recreate the look and feel of the shore. The Ivory Key Queen Bed from Tommy Bahama Home features woven raffia panels on the headboard, footboard, and sides, capturing interest and building character. Keep the floors simple and use classic pieces of furniture to give your bedroom a timeless feel.

If you are looking to spice up your bedroom’s interior décor, try one of these bedroom makeover ideas. You’ll quickly find that your bedroom is your favorite place to be.
