The indigenous people of the Navajo tribe hand-crafted many of their textiles, baskets, and blankets in colors inspired by desert hues and geometric patterns. When Spanish colonialists arrived in the American Southwest, elements of their architectural style — white stucco walls, wooden beams, and red clay rooftops — fit in well with their new climate. Hopi and Pueblo tribes added their influence through adobe homes. Intricate Talavera tiles that are iconic to this decor come from the rich volcanic soils around Puebla, Mexico. Finally, American ranchers contribute all things animal — hides, leather, cow skulls, and taxidermy.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Ch3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\u003Cstrong>Who Does Southwestern Decor Appeal To?\u003C/strong>\u003C/h3>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Especially unique to the United States, Southwestern Decor is most prevalent where it all began — in Arizona, Utah, Nevada, Texas, and New Mexico.

For a traditional ambience, crisp white walls and neutral furnishings provide the perfect backdrop for a Navajo-patterned rug and throw pillows. Create a focal point with a molded stucco fireplace. Sofa and chairs should be comfortable above all else. Accessorize with handmade pottery and functional woven baskets. Natural or painted wood floors set an organic foundation for the scene. To update the look, go with sleek tile flooring the color of desert sand, kaleidoscopic artwork, matching leather furniture, a glass coffee table, and floor-to-ceiling windows. Deep-green desert vegetation adds beauty and a general feeling of well-being to the room you “live” in.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cdiv aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\">\u003C/div>\n\n\n\n\u003Cfigure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\">\u003Cimg data-public-id=\"blog/FD-BlogIMG_Kitchen2/FD-BlogIMG_Kitchen2.jpg\" src=\"https://res.cloudinary.com/frame-destination/images/w_1024,h_536,c_scale/f_auto,q_auto/v1702493058/blog/FD-BlogIMG_Kitchen2/FD-BlogIMG_Kitchen2.jpg?_i=AA\" alt=\"southwestern kitchen wood beams\" class=\"wp-post-7998 wp-image-8003\" data-format=\"jpg\" data-transformations=\"f_auto,q_auto\" data-version=\"1702493058\" data-seo=\"1\">\u003C/figure>\n\n\n\n\u003Cfigure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\">\u003Cimg data-public-id=\"blog/FD-BlogIMG_Kitchen1/FD-BlogIMG_Kitchen1.jpg\" src=\"https://res.cloudinary.com/frame-destination/images/w_1024,h_536,c_scale/f_auto,q_auto/v1702493055/blog/FD-BlogIMG_Kitchen1/FD-BlogIMG_Kitchen1.jpg?_i=AA\" alt=\"Blue and yellow tile kitchen\" class=\"wp-post-7998 wp-image-8004\" data-format=\"jpg\" data-transformations=\"f_auto,q_auto\" data-version=\"1702493055\" data-seo=\"1\">\u003C/figure>\n\n\n\n\u003Cdiv aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\">\u003C/div>\n\n\n\n\u003Ch3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\u003Cstrong>In Your Kitchen\u003C/strong>\u003C/h3>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Here, we see two takes on a Southwestern Decor kitchen.

The next kitchen ventures into the super-saturated end of the Southwestern spectrum, with brightly colored walls, handmade figurines, and intricate tiles. The possibilities of Talavera tile are endless, offering as much or as little color as you like.

In both these Southwestern boudoirs, we see plush fabrics and modern lines. The first example features natural woods and woven accessories against white-washed walls. A deer head appears on a whimsical pillow rather than in 3D taxidermy. Colors are neutrals in varying values to add small punches of contrast. The second bedroom is awash in sunset, desert and mountain colors, with a bench that undulates like the landscape. Since the Southwest is known for its sunny climate, infusing natural light into your space through oversized windows, sliders, or French doors makes perfect sense.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cdiv aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\">\u003C/div>\n\n\n\n\u003Cfigure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\">\u003Cimg data-public-id=\"blog/FD-BlogIMG_Bathroom/FD-BlogIMG_Bathroom.jpg\" src=\"https://res.cloudinary.com/frame-destination/images/w_1024,h_536,c_scale/f_auto,q_auto/v1702493047/blog/FD-BlogIMG_Bathroom/FD-BlogIMG_Bathroom.jpg?_i=AA\" alt=\"southwestern bathroom tub\" class=\"wp-post-7998 wp-image-8008\" data-format=\"jpg\" data-transformations=\"f_auto,q_auto\" data-version=\"1702493047\" data-seo=\"1\">\u003C/figure>\n\n\n\n\u003Cdiv aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\">\u003C/div>\n\n\n\n\u003Ch3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">In Your Bathroom\u003C/h3>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Natural wood, especially knotty pine, is popular in Southwestern-style bathrooms, lending a rustic energy to the space. Painted wood floors add to the cohesion, but Terracotta tile is also an excellent option given that it stays cool underfoot even when the bathroom steams up. An elaborate wall hanging gives subtle drama — or bold drama if brightly colored — while green plants liven up the room organically. Of course, you could spice up the space with hand-painted tiles in large or small doses or even a vibrant multi-colored sink. Whether neutral or daring, the overall aim is a refreshing space to get ready for the day or wind down from it.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Ch3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Go Get the Look\u003C/h3>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>We hope you’re inspired to translate Southwestern Decor into your own personal style.

As movies became the go-to form of entertainment, Hollywood celebrities became icons of style and refinement, and designers were inspired to bring silver screen elegance into the home. William Haines, considered by many to be the father of Glam Decor’s predecessor, Hollywood Regency, embellished the homes of his Hollywood actress friends using neoclassical elements, rich textiles, tufted seating, and oversized sculptures. Dorothy Draper also contributed to this movement with her bold, feminine color palettes, large botanical prints, and twists on old classics.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cdiv aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\">\u003C/div>\n\n\n\n\u003Ch3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\u003Cstrong>Who Does Glam Decor Appeal To?\u003C/strong>\u003C/h3>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Glam Decor skews feminine, but anyone who enjoys making a statement will appreciate the possibilities of this style.

Wainscoting painted a soft ivory visually opens a room; statement art can be oil paintings in metallic-finish wood frames or bold wallpaper on a feature wall.

Choose bedside tables in marble, glass, or mirrored surfaces. Other sophisticated furnishings can include a tufted settee, velvet bench, and sculptural vanity table with oversized mirror.

If so, you can picture the scene in your mind. Simple or grand, your surroundings may have included rugged furnishings, thick plaid blankets, wood-paneled or log walls, a stone fireplace crackling with flames, and glorious views of nature just outside the door.

The construction involved no nails and consisted of just one room measuring 10 feet wide by 12 to 20 feet long. There was one window and a loft for sleeping. From the late 1800s through the early 1900s, America's pioneers built similar structures, stacking notched logs cut from timber they chopped down. Believe it or not, these log cabins were sturdy and even rainproof. This style gained traction in the early 1900s when America's national parks built grand lodges, treating visitors to unforgettable mountain, geyser, and wildlife vistas. In fact, these lodges became an American architectural style called \"parkitecture.\" \u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cdiv aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\">\u003C/div>\n\n\n\n\u003Cfigure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\">\u003Cimg data-public-id=\"blog/FD-BlogIMG_Lodge-Modern2/FD-BlogIMG_Lodge-Modern2.jpg\" src=\"https://res.cloudinary.com/frame-destination/images/w_1200,h_628,c_scale/f_auto,q_auto/v1697212268/blog/FD-BlogIMG_Lodge-Modern2/FD-BlogIMG_Lodge-Modern2.jpg?_i=AA\" alt=\"lodge decor living room\" class=\"wp-post-7820 wp-image-7853\" data-format=\"jpg\" data-transformations=\"f_auto,q_auto\" data-version=\"1697212268\" data-seo=\"1\">\u003C/figure>\n\n\n\n\u003Cdiv aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\">\u003C/div>\n\n\n\n\u003Ch3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\u003Cstrong>Who Does Lodge Decor Appeal To?\u003C/strong>\u003C/h3>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>The earliest Lodge Decor Style fulfilled only the most basic needs — no hot tubs, balconies, or skylights in sight.

You can also whitewash the wood to lighten the space, conveying a Scandinavian feel (a nod to those early Swedish settlers). This can apply to any room, actually. If you're lucky enough to have soaring ceilings, hand-hewn beams will emphasize the height. Hides and antlers are totally appropriate with this design style, strongly imparting a cabin-in-the-woods look. A sleek leather, suede, or two-tone sofa can add a contemporary spin, especially if it's low-profile and not overly tufted. Stone or exposed brick fireplaces are quintessentially Lodge Decor. A wooden coffee table fits right in, but to make it less predictable, top it with modern accessories like a sleek black bowl or a polished vase; go with two or three smaller wood tables of various heights; or choose a contrasting material like metal. Add a soft glow to your Lodge Decor living room with oversized pendant lights. \u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cdiv aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\">\u003C/div>\n\n\n\n\u003Cfigure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\">\u003Cimg data-public-id=\"blog/FD-BlogIMG_Lodge-Kitchen/FD-BlogIMG_Lodge-Kitchen.jpg\" src=\"https://res.cloudinary.com/frame-destination/images/w_1200,h_628,c_scale/f_auto,q_auto/v1697036715/blog/FD-BlogIMG_Lodge-Kitchen/FD-BlogIMG_Lodge-Kitchen.jpg?_i=AA\" alt=\"kitchen lodge decor\" class=\"wp-post-7820 wp-image-7835\" data-format=\"jpg\" data-transformations=\"f_auto,q_auto\" data-version=\"1697036715\" data-seo=\"1\">\u003C/figure>\n\n\n\n\u003Cdiv aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\">\u003C/div>\n\n\n\n\u003Ch3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\u003Cstrong>In Your Kitchen\u003C/strong>\u003C/h3>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>You'll achieve a more organic overtone for a Lodge Decor kitchen if you play loose with the space and steer away from symmetry. Painted cabinetry in a deep rust or another earth tone brings warmth to the heart of your home. You could even select modern cabinetry to energize other less refined elements like a stone floor; stone flooring gives you a timeless look and the durability you need in a kitchen. A reclaimed wooden table — as large as your space allows — begs to be surrounded by family and friends. Hang cast-iron or copper cookware from a wall-mounted pot rack. Showcase stoneware or treasured dishes in a vintage China cabinet. Opt for open shelving above counter space for glass storage jars filled with flour, sugar, and oats. Cover lower open shelves with fabric curtains for softness and an authentic \"Little House on the Prairie\" look. \u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cdiv aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\">\u003C/div>\n\n\n\n\u003Cfigure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\">\u003Cimg data-public-id=\"blog/FD-BlogIMG_Lodge-Bedroom/FD-BlogIMG_Lodge-Bedroom.jpg\" src=\"https://res.cloudinary.com/frame-destination/images/w_1200,h_628,c_scale/f_auto,q_auto/v1696951480/blog/FD-BlogIMG_Lodge-Bedroom/FD-BlogIMG_Lodge-Bedroom.jpg?_i=AA\" alt=\"bedroom lodge decor\" class=\"wp-post-7820 wp-image-7825\" data-format=\"jpg\" data-transformations=\"f_auto,q_auto\" data-version=\"1696951480\" data-seo=\"1\">\u003C/figure>\n\n\n\n\u003Cdiv aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\">\u003C/div>\n\n\n\n\u003Cfigure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\">\u003Cimg data-public-id=\"blog/FD-BlogIMG_Lodge-Aztec/FD-BlogIMG_Lodge-Aztec.jpg\" src=\"https://res.cloudinary.com/frame-destination/images/w_1200,h_628,c_scale/f_auto,q_auto/v1696951500/blog/FD-BlogIMG_Lodge-Aztec/FD-BlogIMG_Lodge-Aztec.jpg?_i=AA\" alt=\"cozy lodge decor\" class=\"wp-post-7820 wp-image-7826\" data-format=\"jpg\" data-transformations=\"f_auto,q_auto\" data-version=\"1696951500\" data-seo=\"1\">\u003C/figure>\n\n\n\n\u003Cdiv aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\">\u003C/div>\n\n\n\n\u003Ch3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\u003Cstrong>In Your Bedroom\u003C/strong>\u003C/h3>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>One key to a Lodge Decor bedroom feeling calm and cozy is to avoid pattern overload. For example, you may prefer simple, neutral bedding paired with a thick cream wool rug. The pop of pattern can come from a camp-style blanket draped across the end of the bed. A deep-green velvet headboard can provide a burst of color. Of course, if you want to go all-in with plaid or a modern Aztec pattern, choose one significant element: the bedding or the rug. If wood dressers and nightstands lend to a cohesive appearance, great. But if you feel they add too much wood, paint them a light color. The same goes for the walls; painting them a soft shade lets you keep a tranquil feel without being overly woodsy. Metal lamps, sconces, and a chandelier will brighten the space in an understated way. \u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cdiv aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\">\u003C/div>\n\n\n\n\u003Cfigure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\">\u003Cimg data-public-id=\"blog/FD-BlogIMG_Lodge-Bathroom/FD-BlogIMG_Lodge-Bathroom.jpg\" src=\"https://res.cloudinary.com/frame-destination/images/w_1200,h_628,c_scale/f_auto,q_auto/v1696951542/blog/FD-BlogIMG_Lodge-Bathroom/FD-BlogIMG_Lodge-Bathroom.jpg?_i=AA\" alt=\"bathroom lodge decor\" class=\"wp-post-7820 wp-image-7827\" data-format=\"jpg\" data-transformations=\"f_auto,q_auto\" data-version=\"1696951542\" data-seo=\"1\">\u003C/figure>\n\n\n\n\u003Cdiv aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\">\u003C/div>\n\n\n\n\u003Ch3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\u003Cstrong>In Your Bathroom\u003C/strong>\u003C/h3>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>For the bathroom, shiplap works well in natural wood, a whitewash stain, or painted a soft earth tone. You can repurpose weathered furniture into a DIY wet sink. Just as functional as the modern version, it would contribute beautifully to the Lodge Decor look. Hang a wrought-iron mirror over the sink. Consider a claw-foot tub, either pure white or painted pale green. Vintage brass is an excellent choice for fixtures, pulls, and sconces. Accessorize with dried flowers, plants, wicker baskets, and floral-patterned linens, which add whimsy without going overboard. \u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Ch3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\u003Cstrong>Into the Wild You Go\u003C/strong>\u003C/h3>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>We hope these tips give you the confidence to create your own slice of cozy chic at home.

It was during this program that I started dipping my toe into the digital art world by editing my hand-drawn illustrations for class in Photoshop.

Rather than using pencil, ink, or paint on paper or canvas, the artist uses a variety of tools like a mouse, stylus, or other digital devices.

To wit: She came up with user interface illustrations such as the “happy” and “sad” Mac icons, the trash can, and the bomb symbol. Even \u003Cstrong>Andy Warhol \u003C/strong>was among the cutting-edge digital illustrators of his day, innovating digital art for computer company Commodore International, for which Warhol was a “brand ambassador.” You can view his digital art at the \u003Ca href=\"https://www.warhol.org/exhibition/warhol-and-the-amiga/\">Andy Warhol Museum\u003C/a> in Pittsburgh.

But three historical phases seem to be dominant contributors to Bohemian Decor. First up: the nomadic Romani people. They originated in India and traveled through multiple countries before settling in Central Europe in the 1200s, bringing various global elements to today’s Boho style. Then we have Bohemianism from post-revolutionary France, which imparts the artistic, countercultural mood to the decor. Finally, the 1960s American Hippie movement lends a retro, carefree, and eco-friendly energy to the style.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Ch3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Who Does Bohemian Decor Appeal To?\u003C/h3>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Typically, this decor style appeals to those who live a nontraditional life, like travelers, writers, and artists. But really anyone who appreciates mixing and layering textures, patterns, colors, and natural elements could be easily drawn to Bohemian Decor. These are people who ascribe to a “more is more” design mindset but in a way that feels crafted and meaningful.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cdiv aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\">\u003C/div>\n\n\n\n\u003Cfigure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\">\u003Cimg data-public-id=\"blog/FD-BlogHero_Bohemian_inline3/FD-BlogHero_Bohemian_inline3.jpg\" src=\"https://res.cloudinary.com/frame-destination/images/w_1024,h_536,c_scale/f_auto,q_auto/v1693424275/blog/FD-BlogHero_Bohemian_inline3/FD-BlogHero_Bohemian_inline3.jpg?_i=AA\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-post-7544 wp-image-7564\" data-format=\"jpg\" data-transformations=\"f_auto,q_auto\" data-version=\"1693424275\" data-seo=\"1\">\u003C/figure>\n\n\n\n\u003Cdiv aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\">\u003C/div>\n\n\n\n\u003Ch3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Worldly, Yet Lived In\u003C/h3>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Here are some specific elements of Bohemian Decor.

As an anchor piece, consider a velvet loveseat or sectional in burnt orange or emerald green — or go softer with cream or gray. Don’t be afraid to pile up the colorful, heavily patterned throw pillows. Since this decor style is unconventional, the seating can be, too: like a papasan chair or a rattan swinging chair if you’re feeling spicy. Plush cushions for floor seating can be stored in a wicker basket in the corner. The rug? Colorful Moroccan or simple sisal will do; feel free to layer. Other furnishings could include a simple, natural wood coffee table, preferably distressed; a bookshelf laden with novels, poetry, and travel guides; and a patina copper side table. Drape a chenille woven blanket across the back of a couch or loveseat. Adorn the walls with abstract or botanical art, or anything you’ve collected while traveling. Of course, plants in the living room will lend a verdant appeal to this space.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cdiv aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\">\u003C/div>\n\n\n\n\u003Cfigure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\">\u003Cimg data-public-id=\"blog/FD-BlogHero_Bohemian_Kitchen_75525cf1f/FD-BlogHero_Bohemian_Kitchen_75525cf1f.jpg\" src=\"https://res.cloudinary.com/frame-destination/images/w_1200,h_628,c_scale/f_auto,q_auto/v1693412788/blog/FD-BlogHero_Bohemian_Kitchen_75525cf1f/FD-BlogHero_Bohemian_Kitchen_75525cf1f.jpg?_i=AA\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-post-7544 wp-image-7552\" data-format=\"jpg\" data-transformations=\"f_auto,q_auto\" data-version=\"1693412788\" data-seo=\"1\">\u003C/figure>\n\n\n\n\u003Cdiv aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\">\u003C/div>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>\u003Cstrong>In Your Kitchen\u003C/strong>\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Since every culture in the world seems to value eating together as a social event, your kitchen is a natural place to infuse Bohemian Decor. Warm shades on the wall — whether a deep orange or a neutral shade with warm undertones — will say “welcome” with no words. An exposed plaster finish adds a rustic dimension. Consider cabinetry in natural wood, or in a color that’s either bolder or softer than the walls for contrast. Terracotta tile flooring and a colorful Mexican or Moroccan backsplash can transport you to an exotic locale. A chunky wood dining table and chairs add to the warmth and casual feel. Exposed shelving is the perfect showcase for colorful vintage glassware and foodie items collected from travels, like hand-made wine bottles, vases, or baskets. Add rattan pendant lights and a Moroccan rug, bright or faded, to complete your Boho kitchen.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cdiv aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\">\u003C/div>\n\n\n\n\u003Cfigure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\">\u003Cimg data-public-id=\"blog/FD-BlogHero_Bohemian_Bedroom/FD-BlogHero_Bohemian_Bedroom.jpg\" src=\"https://res.cloudinary.com/frame-destination/images/w_1200,h_628,c_scale/f_auto,q_auto/v1693412795/blog/FD-BlogHero_Bohemian_Bedroom/FD-BlogHero_Bohemian_Bedroom.jpg?_i=AA\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-post-7544 wp-image-7553\" data-format=\"jpg\" data-transformations=\"f_auto,q_auto\" data-version=\"1693412795\" data-seo=\"1\">\u003C/figure>\n\n\n\n\u003Cdiv aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\">\u003C/div>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>\u003Cstrong>In Your Bedroom\u003C/strong>\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>The bedroom is your home sweet haven. So, perhaps most of all, this room should reflect your personal style preferences. For example, a Bohemian Decor bedroom palette could be bright and playful, soft and tranquil, or anything in between. A variety of looks can be accomplished simply through a thoughtful blend of colors, textures, patterns, and materials. For example, the headboard of your bed could be shiny brass, cozy rattan, live-edge wood, or an upscale upholstered velvet number. Bedding can start with a thick, cream-colored comforter and go from there with equally neutral yet textured pillows — or pillows in assorted hues and interesting shapes. Alternatively, pick a color, like blue, and display every variation of it in pillows and blankets, varying the patterns. A throw blanket with heavy fringe or tassels is unmistakably Boho. Layer in a textured wool rug in vivid or muted shades. A simple wooden dresser and nightstands will fit right in, or painted if you prefer. A gallery wall of abstract art framed in assorted colors of \u003Ca href=\"https://www.framedestination.com/blog/picture-frames/distress-a-picture-frame-to-shabby-chic-perfection\">distressed wood frames\u003C/a> would work well here, as would a grouping of distressed straw sun hats. You can even create a corner for reading or writing, piled high with vibrant pillows and blankets for optimal comfort. A rattan chandelier will light up the space with a cozy flair.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cdiv aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\">\u003C/div>\n\n\n\n\u003Cfigure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\">\u003Cimg data-public-id=\"blog/FD-BlogHero_Bohemian_Bathroom/FD-BlogHero_Bohemian_Bathroom.jpg\" src=\"https://res.cloudinary.com/frame-destination/images/w_1200,h_628,c_scale/f_auto,q_auto/v1693412804/blog/FD-BlogHero_Bohemian_Bathroom/FD-BlogHero_Bohemian_Bathroom.jpg?_i=AA\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-post-7544 wp-image-7554\" data-format=\"jpg\" data-transformations=\"f_auto,q_auto\" data-version=\"1693412804\" data-seo=\"1\">\u003C/figure>\n\n\n\n\u003Cdiv aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\">\u003C/div>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>\u003Cstrong>In Your Bathroom\u003C/strong>\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Mind if we mention plants again? Because (a) plants love humidity and (b) plants add an organic element where normally we see a lot of hard, flat surfaces. Speaking of which, tile options are so fun and practically limitless at home improvement stores and online. However, if you happen to have a collection of colorful handmade tiles that you haggled for at a Guatemalan marketplace, your bathroom (or kitchen) would be ideal showcases. For the vanity, natural or brightly painted wood are great choices. You could also hang Turkish bath towels — all the rage for their lightweight absorbency — on a bamboo towel rack.

While the idea is minimalism here, don’t be afraid to adorn the walls with large-scale graphic prints or abstract art. Exposed lighting in a chandelier or runner lights in the ceiling would be perfect in the living room. A low-profile sofa in durable upholstery, like brown (or even white) leather, helps create a less-is-more look. Showcase any pre-existing fixtures that can become statement pieces, such as high ceilings, vents, brick walls, and fireplaces. Cement or dark hardwood floors stay true to the Industrial Decor style. For finishing touches — and to add in the comfy factor — layer plush rugs and toss a throw blanket across a leather chaise lounge.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cdiv aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\">\u003C/div>\n\n\n\n\u003Cfigure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\">\u003Cimg data-public-id=\"blog/FD-BlogHero_Industrial_Kitchen2/FD-BlogHero_Industrial_Kitchen2.jpg\" src=\"https://res.cloudinary.com/frame-destination/images/w_1200,h_628,c_scale/f_auto,q_auto/v1692804204/blog/FD-BlogHero_Industrial_Kitchen2/FD-BlogHero_Industrial_Kitchen2.jpg?_i=AA\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-post-7523 wp-image-7525\" data-format=\"jpg\" data-transformations=\"f_auto,q_auto\" data-version=\"1692804204\" data-seo=\"1\">\u003C/figure>\n\n\n\n\u003Cdiv aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\">\u003C/div>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>\u003Cstrong>In Your Kitchen\u003C/strong>\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>The kitchen is ultimately a place of functionality, making Industrial Decor a natural fit in this space. Think unfinished wood or concrete tops for counters or the island. Stainless steel or SMEG appliances invoke industrial energy, as do black faucets and light fixtures, while copper accents soften the ambience. Wooden cabinetry brings warmth, but you could also opt for exposed storage via open shelving; light travels more fluidly with open storage, making your kitchen feel larger. Brown leather counter chairs add softness, while metal stools have industrial written all over them. Capitalize on an exposed brick wall’s texture and let any exposed wood or metal beams draw the eye upward.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cdiv aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\">\u003C/div>\n\n\n\n\u003Cfigure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\">\u003Cimg data-public-id=\"blog/FD-BlogHero_Industrial_Bedroom2/FD-BlogHero_Industrial_Bedroom2.jpg\" src=\"https://res.cloudinary.com/frame-destination/images/w_1200,h_628,c_scale/f_auto,q_auto/v1692804248/blog/FD-BlogHero_Industrial_Bedroom2/FD-BlogHero_Industrial_Bedroom2.jpg?_i=AA\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-post-7523 wp-image-7526\" data-format=\"jpg\" data-transformations=\"f_auto,q_auto\" data-version=\"1692804248\" data-seo=\"1\">\u003C/figure>\n\n\n\n\u003Cdiv aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\">\u003C/div>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>\u003Cstrong>In Your Bedroom\u003C/strong>\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Speaking of brick walls, you can absolutely paint them to subdue the space, especially a bedroom. It makes sense to want a few extra nods to coziness in your nocturnal oasis — an area rug, a fabric accent chair in the corner, sheer white curtains, plush bedding, lush green plants. Take advantage of high ceilings with a hanging chandelier. Since your bed is likely the largest object in the room, flaunt it as a focal point; for example, place it in the center of the room or hang it from ropes or heavy chains. Combine wood and metal to mix and match textures. Furniture on wheels not only adds to the industrial mood but makes rearranging furniture easy.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cdiv aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\">\u003C/div>\n\n\n\n\u003Cfigure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\">\u003Cimg data-public-id=\"blog/FD-BlogHero_Industrial_Bathroom/FD-BlogHero_Industrial_Bathroom.jpg\" src=\"https://res.cloudinary.com/frame-destination/images/w_1200,h_628,c_scale/f_auto,q_auto/v1692804292/blog/FD-BlogHero_Industrial_Bathroom/FD-BlogHero_Industrial_Bathroom.jpg?_i=AA\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-post-7523 wp-image-7527\" data-format=\"jpg\" data-transformations=\"f_auto,q_auto\" data-version=\"1692804292\" data-seo=\"1\">\u003C/figure>\n\n\n\n\u003Cdiv aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\">\u003C/div>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>\u003Cstrong>In Your Bathroom\u003C/strong>\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Imagine standing at a rustic wood vanity with a metal-frame mirror, perhaps one that pivots to give it an extra boost of function. Caged lighting is also a cool industrial touch. Again, don’t feel you need to cover up exposed piping, especially in the shower or under the vanity. We’re picturing a glass shower framed in matte black metal, with black fixtures for the shower/tub and sink. What about a concrete bathtub? They make them! Leave exposed brick walls untouched for texture, or paint them white for a cleaner look — and easier cleanup. Bathrooms will always be a wonderful place for live plants so long as there is sunlight filtering in. Sliding doors (commonly found on loading docks) are a nice choice for a bathroom entry, especially if you need the space that a swing door would interrupt.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cdiv aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\">\u003C/div>\n\n\n\n\u003Ch3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Storied Past, Stylish Present\u003C/h3>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>What began as an unrefined, sparse look becomes a finished and lived-in home with the appropriate decor.

However, you could argue that Cottagecore’s roots go back at least as far as the 1700s, when French aristocrats like Marie Antoinette escaped the formalities of royalty to a no-frills, village retreat. No matter the era, Cottagecore embraces a simpler, slower, homespun approach.\u003Cbr> \u003Cbr>\u003Cstrong>Who it appeals to:\u003C/strong> Young adults are typically attracted to Cottagecore, but anyone who loves romance and nature may find it appealing.

Cottagecore tends to be more cozy and casual, while Grandmillennial is more formal and traditional.

Candles, specifically candlesticks, are very appropriate to add throughout the home. \u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Consider the allure that living plants and flowers bring to a space. Rich, wooden antique furniture pieces really feed into the vintage feel that this decor style aims to present. Play with texture and patterns on throw pillows.

We recommend appointing a larger piece of furniture as your visual anchor. Think large, distressed wooden bookshelf filled with your favorite reads and accented with vining plants. \u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>From there, multiple patterns and textures can really come into play. For example, find a beautiful vintage-style striped couch and layer it with vivid floral throw pillows. When mixing patterns, make sure you mix up the size; large-scale patterns can be dominant, while smaller-scale patterns work well as accents. \u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Texture can be added through rugs, window treatments, and furnishings in leather, velvet, or wicker. Incorporate some of this year’s popular colors, which include magenta, deep mossy green, raspberry blush, buttery yellow, and watery blue. You can even find rustic textures and enchanting colors in the \u003Ca href=\"https://www.framedestination.com/blog/picture-frames/great-frame-styles-for-cottagecore-interior-design\">cottage frames\u003C/a> you choose. (Hint: When it comes to combining colors, keep in mind the 60-30-10 rule. That is, 60% of the room should be the prevailing color; 30% a secondary hue; and 10% your accent.)\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cdiv aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\">\u003C/div>\n\n\n\n\u003Cfigure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\">\u003Cimg data-public-id=\"blog/FD-BlogIMG_Cottagecore_IMG2/FD-BlogIMG_Cottagecore_IMG2.jpg\" src=\"https://res.cloudinary.com/frame-destination/images/w_1200,h_628,c_scale/f_auto,q_auto/v1687458987/blog/FD-BlogIMG_Cottagecore_IMG2/FD-BlogIMG_Cottagecore_IMG2.jpg?_i=AA\" alt=\"Open lighting kitchen\" class=\"wp-post-7396 wp-image-7418\" data-format=\"jpg\" data-transformations=\"f_auto,q_auto\" data-version=\"1687458987\" data-seo=\"1\">\u003C/figure>\n\n\n\n\u003Cdiv aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\">\u003C/div>\n\n\n\n\u003Ch3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Cottagecore Ideas for Your Kitchen\u003C/h3>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>A simple large wooden table with mixed chairs for dining sets the scene.

(More on that later.) Coastal decor is comfortable, easy, airy, and light. It blurs the lines between what you’d serendipitously find on the shores of your favorite beach with what you’d traditionally find indoors. This look beautifully incorporates elements of nature, such as various woods, crisp linens, glass, ceramic, jute, grasscloth, and cotton with coastal colors like blue, green, yellow, and coral. These complementing components are what make up Coastal design. (NOTE: Be careful not to confuse Coastal decor with Nautical decor, which is more the realm of anchors, sailboats, knotted ropes, etc., and can tend to be a bit kitschy.)\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>\u003Cstrong>Where it originated: \u003C/strong>Coastal decor is by no means new. It emerged based on what was available to coastal populations centuries ago. Of course, adaptations have been made, but something interesting about this style is that you can vary the details depending on which coast you live on. For example, on the northeastern U.S. coastline, the type of wood used for interior design is often darker, while on southern coastlines, woods are lighter due to exposure of elements like sun and seawater. Driftwood is particularly big along the North Carolina coast. This is not a hard and fast rule, but displaying local elements can lend an authentic vibe to your space.\u003Cbr> \u003Cbr>\u003Cstrong>Who it appeals to:\u003C/strong> This look obviously appeals to those who love the coast. And to be clear, you don’t have to live on the waterfront to enjoy this style of decorating. Many homeowners in suburban areas are incorporating Coastal decor into their space. It’s for anyone desiring a peaceful, breezy home oasis that’s comfortably casual or even more formal, if you prefer.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Ch3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A Breeze of Fresh Style\u003C/h3>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Coastal decor is all about the conversation between elements: mixing natural textures and introducing pops of color against a neutral, airy backdrop of whites, rustic woods, and smooth marble or glass.

For example — here comes the sand reference — if you happen to visit Bermuda on your honeymoon and scoop some pink sand as a souvenir, find a pretty little clear vase to display it in. That driftwood that drifted up during your beach camping trip can adorn your mantel or be DIY’d into a macrame wall piece. You get the idea.

Furnishings can include a slipcovered, neutral couch and natural wood accents, while a hand-knotted rug — perhaps jute or another natural fiber — can create a cozy backdrop for accents like marble and glass. Bursts of color via throw pillows, art work, or a blanket are a nice finishing touch\u003Cstrong>.\u003C/strong>\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>\u003Cstrong>Kitchen:\u003C/strong> In the kitchen, we love seeing textures like natural wood tables and linen placemats. Look for serving ware like white-washed wood bowls and ceramic platters. Even more fun, adding a bowl of summer citrus fruits like lemons, limes, or tangerines brings fresh and natural color to your space. Consider a wicker pendant light or wooden bead chandelier over a breakfast nook. Speaking of breakfast nooks, don’t be afraid to further accessorize that area with some textured or colorful cushions.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>\u003Cstrong>Bedroom:\u003C/strong> This is the space where comfort truly matters. Go with natural fibers like linen or cotton bedding and curtains, along with furniture in soft neutrals. Stoneware in the form of vases and little dishes for jewelry are the perfect accessories for a dresser or bedside table. In one corner of the room, set out a woven basket to hold pillows or blankets from the bed after turndown. White oak hardwood floors, paired with a cotton rug underneath the bed, is a nice way to keep the room feeling tranquil and cozy.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>\u003Cstrong>Bathroom:\u003C/strong> Think simplicity; don’t overcrowd the space. Light colors in a bathroom are lovely and convey a sense of cleanliness. Consider sea glass hues of greens and blues, mixed with natural wood tones. Speaking of wood, teak is known not only for its smooth-grain look, but also its durability thanks to naturally occurring oils that repel water, preventing the wood from cracking and warping over time. The bathroom would also be an appropriate and fun space to bring in stone or pebbles for added texture. A shower with a smooth stone floor can be a winsome tribute to Coastal decor as you bring a completely natural element indoors.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Ch3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Sea the Possibilities\u003C/h3>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Coastal decor evokes the feeling of peace and relaxation you experience on a beach vacation, without leaving home … or cleaning up all that sand! It can be a timeless style for any location, no matter how far inland you live. And remember, displaying treasures of your own from special memories you’ve made along the coast is not only acceptable, but strongly encouraged. A sweet little reminder of a small slice of paradise in your home oasis.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cdiv aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\">\u003C/div>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>\u003Cstrong>Last Updated October 12, 2023\u003C/strong>\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\n","\u003Cp>Shoring Up Style at Home Defining the Style: Coastal decor style is everything you love about the coastal outdoors, minus the sand — unless, of course, that’s your thing and you want to include a nod to the one beach element people either love or hate.

It’s a mouthful! But what do we mean? Some describe this style as the best of two worlds: traditional decor and modern design. The aim is to create a delightfully dimensional and comfortably nostalgic aesthetic. \u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>\u003Cstrong>\u003Cem>WHERE IT ORIGINATED\u003C/em>\u003C/strong>\u003Cstrong>\u003Cem>: \u003C/em>\u003C/strong>Sometimes dubbed “Granny Chic,” Grandmillennial style came  from the desire for the warmth and comfort of Grandma’s house, while harnessing the modern interior design styles of CB2 or AllModern and eliminating clutter. Though Grandmillennial design has been around for decades, a refreshed comeback is in the making. In fact, if you’re an HGTV fan, “\u003Cem>Home Town” \u003C/em>host Erin Napier is a pioneer for the style. \u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>\u003Cstrong>\u003Cem>WHO IT APPEALS TO:\u003C/em>\u003C/strong> You guessed it, millennials! People in their late 20s and 30s are adopting this decorating approach and making it their own. It’s almost as if there’s a new claim being staked on the rights to the decor that millennials grew up with. Yet, anyone at any age can easily adapt their space to this charismatic way of decorating. That’s the beauty of Grandmillennial style. It’s broad, yet niche, owing to the fact that many “Grandma” decor pieces are unique, passed down through generations.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Ch3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\u003Cstrong>A Breath of Fresh Style\u003C/strong>\u003C/h3>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Grandmillennial design is layered and fulfilling, allowing for more than one story to be told. It’s the past that shaped you entwined with the future you’re creating. Offering a breath of fresh air in the design world, this approach liberates us from the neutral, muted color palettes and clean minimalistic furniture lines that have dominated home decor the last few years. Vivid color is important in Grandmillennial decorating, and we are seeing an emergence of them all — shades of blue, green, yellow, pink, even purple. Tastefully applied, of course.\u003C/p>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Think texture, as well. It’s important to note that in the world of interior design, there are both\u003Cem> tactile textures\u003C/em> (those which can be physically felt) and \u003Cem>visual textures\u003C/em> (those that can be seen by use of color or patterns, such as wallpaper that looks textured, but is actually smooth to the touch). Velvet, linen, cotton, fringe, pleats, contrasting colors, etc. would all fall under the general umbrella of texture.
