Boho Style Decor

 

If you want to decorate your home in a boho style, you can't do it without wall decor. Natural posters are an original decoration idea. Posterton has a wide range of pictures of green potted plants and exotic plants, so you can find the perfect design for your aesthetic. In this blog post, you'll find out if the boho style is for you and how to choose the right posters for you and your home. 

What is Boho Wall Decor?

 

Boho wall decor is all about creating a cozy and inviting room. The style is named after the bohemian lifestyle that values free expression and creativity. Boho wall decor is therefore characterized by colorful, eclectic details. Patterned fabrics, vintage finds, and natural materials are typical elements of this style. Boho style, also known as hippie style, is a popular interior design style characterized by bright colors, patterns, and natural materials. The boho style is often associated with a carefree, bohemian lifestyle. This interior style works particularly well in homes with open floor plans and plenty of natural light. The goal of decorating in a boho style is to create a relaxed and laid-back atmosphere. Therefore, the decor is usually very informal. Common elements of boho decor include rugs, wallpapers, pillows, throws, and lamps made of natural materials like wood, stone, and ceramics. Boho design is often used to create a warm and inviting room that feels like a retreat from the world. When it comes to colors, think earth and jewel tones for a rich and inviting room.

Is this exactly the style you want or do you already have a boho decor? If so, wall murals with nature motifs in boho style are perfect.

Which Boho Type Are You?


And more importantly: which poster motifs suit your boho style? To help you find out, we have compiled a short guide with the five different boho types.


1. The Hippies

Hippies are all about peace, love, and living out their individuality. They are often creative types who decorate their homes in bright colors and with eccentric furniture. Therefore, they are drawn to colorful posters that reflect their free spirit. Our "Tropical" gallery wall combines just that. 

 

2. The Poets

Poets are romantic souls who appreciate the beauty of life. They often have a weakness for vintage and like to surround themselves with art and literature. A mix of typographic posters and our vintage motifs, such as our "Retro Love" gallery wall, may therefore be perfect for poet types. 

 

3. The Yogis

Yogis are all about balance and well-being. They tend to decorate their homes comfortably and with flowing, light materials. Yogis also like to surround themselves with nature. If you are a yogi, you may like the posters on our "Soft Bedroom" gallery wall. 

 

4. The Vagabonds

Vagabonds are free spirits who live for adventure. They appreciate the nomadic lifestyle and van life and enjoy exploring the world with just a backpack. Due to their wanderlust, they have interesting stories to tell. When they are home, their home should reflect just that. As a vagabond, you are perfectly equipped with sayings like "every day is a new adventure", exotic plant pictures, and fantastic views like Padar Island in Indonesia! Check out our "Harmonic Ochra" gallery wall for inspiration. 

 

5. The Moderns

The moderns have a boho style, but with a cleaner, simpler look. Think neutral, light tones and minimalist decor. Therefore, the moderns' decor often seems well thought out - there are no crazy patterns and color mixes like the hippies have. A combination of nature motifs and architectural posters, like our "Wild World" gallery wall, might suit you as a modern. 

How to Complement Your Boho-Style Posters?


Here are three tips on how to make your boho wall decor perfectly match your other decor:

 

  1. Stick to one color palette. Natural posters are a great way to add color to your room, but when it comes to boho style, less can be more (depending on your type, of course). For example, choose muted colors and earthy tones to create a calming atmosphere.
  2. Incorporate natural materials. Boho style is generally about bringing nature indoors, so you should incorporate natural elements into your decor. Woven baskets, wooden details, and plants are great ways to do this.
  3. Create layers. One of the hallmarks of boho style is a sense of layering. To achieve this look, you can prop up your natural posters instead of hanging them, and let them overlap a bit.
