How to achieve the boho luxe look in your home (and keep it on trend)

The boho luxe look is as much a feeling as it is a style.

Interior spaces donning this trend feel relaxed, bright, fashionable, and a touch indulgent. They combine a sense of the global, an ambience of travel, while confidently weaving contemporary luxe pieces into the space for an effortlessly dressy design that excites with its elegance and welcomes with its warmth.

For the fashion-conscious home decorator who isn’t afraid to make a statement, this on-trend style is the next big thing in interior design.

What are the key elements of boho luxe interior design?

Few trends are typified by particular items, but there are certain notable elements that pop up time and time again when it comes to the bohemian luxe look.

It begins with a selection of dazzling hues. Boho luxe home styling is usually grounded in crisp whites, yet can also feature noir tones for that contemporary touch. These sleek colours are accented with injections of emerald green, shining gold, rich rust, or calming teal.

Texture also plays a vital role in this multi-faceted style. Warm timbers are common, as is VJ panelling, the glint of brushed metallic homewares, and the plush look and feel of sheepskin rugs and velvet furniture. These textures are often layered atop one another for a rich and dimensional space that’s as endlessly tactile as it is exquisite.

And floating above it all – the colours, the textures, the eclectic objects and elegant designs – is a feeling of lightness thanks to abundant natural lighting. This airy ambience adds its own sense of space, warmth, and relaxed bohemian living.

Boho luxe styling inspiration for every room in the house

Boho luxe interiors begin with soft, airy light. Consider switching from patterned or dark drapes to gauzy white curtains, and amplify any natural light with crisp white walls and mirrors. This will give you a clean luxe foundation on which you can build your boho look in any room of the house.

Boho luxe is built upon statement pieces. Regardless of the room in the house, it helps to choose a few key pieces to build around.

How to style a boho luxe living room

Opt for vibrant, eclectic furniture. The Draper Velvet 3 Seat Sofa is a must-have for any boho luxe living room: The thick velvet texture, rich emerald green tone, and classic button style are what boho-luxe dreams are made of. Pair with a crisp white sheepskin rug and metallic elements to finish the look.

Decadent boho-luxe items such as a statement sideboard can be artfully balanced by a crisp white coffee table with sleek lines and an elegant leg design.

Once you have your key pieces, furnish the rest of the room with homewares and decorations that incorporate texture, colour, and the dichotomy of eclectic bohemian style and chic contemporary design.

We love the Atrium Polo Rug, an understated and eco-friendly piece made from hand-spun renewable fibres. The natural tones and circular shape will provide the perfect boho touch under any luxe coffee table or couch.

How to style a boho luxe bedroom

In the bedroom, the same rule applies. Start with one or two pieces you love, and build on the layers and textures from there. This could be an extravagant four-poster bed, or perhaps a Pia Bone Inlay chest of drawers for a spectacularly gorgeous hand-crafted piece that sings of far-flung global influences and evokes the boho-luxe look in spades.

Introduce a natural touch with warm timber with elements such as a set of Hansen bedside tables, which offer the added benefit of sculptural texture with their hand-crafted design and distinctive Shesham wood grains. Decorate with travel souvenirs, live plants, and pops of luxe colour to finish the look.

How to style a boho luxe dining room

In the dining area, a warm natural timber table creates an effortless natural feel as the foundation of a boho-luxe dining room. Surround it with something sumptuous such as the Alona Velvet Accent Chair, or pare it back with a breezy Café dining chair for a hand-woven and natural detail.

For an extra touch of personality, add a statement console table with a few items you’ve picked up during your travels.
