The appeal of natural elements makes us feel calm, at peace and offers a unique warmth to our spaces. In recent years, growing awareness of the Earth’s dwindling resources has made it even more evident that bringing nature into our homes is essential. If you have been trying to think how to get it. We leave you five ideas.
1. Choose natural materials that make you feel at peace
One of the reasons we love nature so much is our connection with natural elements such as wood, cotton or linen, to name a few. Choosing materials consistent with your personal style is the first step. One homeowner may enjoy the rugged nature of natural rock walls, while another may prefer the more sophisticated style of mahogany floors. Likewise, some will prefer the delicate softness of the linen from our Alba collection made with 100% linen of natural origin, while others will be better off opting for the resistance and warmth of Tasos GRS, made with recycled cotton. In any case, it is important to choose materials according to your own personality and your lifestyle.
2. Incorporate natural sunlight as a design element
One of the easiest, cheapest and most beautiful natural elements that many forget about is sunlight. Natural lighting can make any room come alive, makes colors pop in furniture and wall decor, and makes people feel healthy and inspired. Whether you use windows, borrowed light from solar tubes extending from your ceiling into closets, or dark bathrooms, natural light can have an effect like no other on your home’s interiors.
3. Natural wood furniture reveals craftsmanship at its finest
Wooden furniture is one of the most popular as it is durable, beautiful and the wood can be finished in any way imaginable. Look for handcrafted furniture if you prefer a rustic, country appeal to your interiors, or look for antique wooden furniture for the bedroom and living room to recapture the nostalgia of turn-of-the-century home life. If you are going for a contemporary style, wooden furniture with minimal lines and free of ornamentation can create a dramatic appeal.
