What defines Boheme Living? Probably the exact opposite of “clean” or “styled.” Here lies a colorful Kilim under an old leather sofa from a flea market, next to it stands a ceramic vase that is a little crooked, but charming for that very reason. You can tell: Someone lives here who is not afraid of edges, corners, and character.
Maybe there’s a dreamcatcher hanging above the bed, maybe a self-painted picture, maybe an old poster from a favorite concert. It’s not about what “matches,” but what moves you. Every object tells a story – about travels, memories, people.
And what if you haven’t been able to collect stories? Then you go on a treasure hunt: thrift stores, antique markets, secondhand – here you can find pieces that are different. That aren’t found everywhere. That surprise you.
Boho means diversity. And this is reflected not least in the colors. Curry can sit next to petrol, pink next to rust red, and gold threads in the cushion cover shine brightly. Those who embrace this style love playing with contrasts. And you can feel it.
Patterns? Absolutely. Ethnic, oriental, floral, or simply a wild mix – as long as they tell a story. Together with structured materials like linen, wool, or raffia, a cozy, warm overall picture emerges. Sometimes a bit overloaded, yes – but always full of life.
Especially beautiful: When light falls through the window and fabrics or rugs glow vibrantly. In those moments, you can feel how much the room communicates with you.
A Boho-style room without a rug? Hard to imagine. These handcrafted rugs are expressions of centuries-old craftsmanship and add a unique touch to any space. Whether it's a traditional Persian rug in vibrant red, a Moroccan Beni Ourain with geometric black and white patterns, or a colorful kilim – they all make a statement and create connection.
And honestly: Is there anything more beautiful than walking barefoot on a real rug while the rain drums against the windows outside?
What’s particularly charming is that no two rugs are alike. Each has its own pattern, its little irregularities, its origin – and that makes it so valuable in a bohemian context. By choosing handmade options, you not only support a beautiful home but also traditional craftsmanship from regions like Iran, Morocco, or Afghanistan.
Boheme Living is always a bit retro. Furniture with signs of use, treasures from travels, the old enamel pot from Grandma – all of this has a place. At the same time, nature plays a big role: plants, rattan, cotton, linen, untreated wood. Things that breathe.
Often, there are more houseplants in Boho homes than one can count – and that's a good thing. They bring life, color, air – and sometimes a bit of a jungle feel. Dried flowers, small succulents, or lush Monstera plants join in.
Light is also important: warm tones, soft light bulbs, fairy lights instead of floor lamps. This creates a space that feels like a hug.
