Boho

Boho decorating style

Boho style layers texture and warmth until a room feels collected rather than furnished — woven fibre, sun-baked colour, and plants doing the work that ornament does elsewhere. Nothing needs to match; it needs to feel gathered over time, from more than one place. It rewards patience and a willingness to keep adding rather than editing down.
