Natural Indoor Decor Ideas

Natural indoor decor is one way to bring a little bit of the outdoors inside. Whether you do this with a country motif or a more modern decor style, natural items add to the attractiveness of your home while introducing the peace and calm of nature into your home's atmosphere. There are many different types of natural decor, and you can use one or a combination of a few to achieve the look you desire.
  1. Natural Wall Coverings

    • Wood paneling left to age naturally lends a rustic look.

      The material used to cover your walls makes a statement and can complement or guide the style and decor of the room. Natural wall covers made from wood or stone are two options for bringing the look of nature into your home. Both of these wall coverings work well with a variety of home decor styles, making them versatile and evergreen. If an entire room with wood or stone walls feels like too much to you, you can use the material to create one accent wall instead.

    Natural Indoor Furniture

    • Furniture that lends a natural or nature-inspired look to your room doesn't have to be limited to the material with which it's made. While wicker, rattan and pine furniture all give a room a natural look and feel, the patterns and designs used on upholstery can also lend themselves to a natural decor. Incorporate some of your favorite nature-inspired motifs, such as birds, animals, the forest or the beach into your upholstery. When used in conjunction with wicker or wood furniture, you can achieve that outdoorsy feel inside.

    • A sisal rug provides a natural accent for many decor styles.

      There are many choices when it comes to natural floor materials and decor that it make the floor one of the best places to start with natural indoor decor. Choose from hardwood flooring or laminate flooring with a hardwood look. A variety of natural stone flooring materials can also be used to add color, pattern and natural texture to the decor. If it's not possible to change the flooring material itself, another option is to use a floor covering made with natural materials. A sisal rug or other floor covering woven from natural grasses adds natural appeal, whether used as a small accent rug or the room's main area rug.

    Living Home Decor

    • Living things provide the truest representation of nature inside your home. One of the simplest ways to bring the outdoors inside is to add plant life to your room. A single, large potted plant or grouping of plants adds natural greenery and life to the room. A fish tank with colorful fish adds to the decor, and the water sounds contribute to a calming atmosphere.
