Style history
Many boho is fairly associated with a hippie flourishing in the 60-70 years. Active, it was during this period the style gained the greatest popularity, but its origins go to the distant past - even at the beginning of the seventeenth century. Bohémiens called the Czech Gypsies, which lived in the territory of the European Region Bohemia. Since Bohemians were nomads, their clothes and household items for the most part were borrowed from different countries and cultures: from Europe to India and China.
At the end of the nineteenth century, fashion for exoticism and especially on all Eastern came to Europe, however, it was originally distributed only on clothes with ethnic motifs. And after, starting from the 50s, Bocho-Chic was rethought by hipsters and hippies.
Today, this style is choosing free creative people who are not alien to artistic mess and light carelessness in detail, but the interior for them is a way of self-expression and a reflection of a bright and chaotic inner world.
How to realize the style of boho in the interior of the house
The main rule is no rules. The whole essence of this direction in the refusal of the canons of design and strict restrictions. That is why you will not find two identical boho interior - they will always be individual and unique. Nevertheless, this area has its own characteristics that can be guided by thinking on the design.We choose the direction
Since this stylistics is very diverse and inhomogeneous, several directions were naturally separated in it:
- Bocho-chic is the same thoughtful alayity and a luxury deposited (including fake). If you like Kitch, then this is the direction for you. Key elements: gold and crystal, animal prints, heavy fabrics, rich decor, furniture with soft upholstery and luxurious dishes.
- Eco - Eco-friendly Bocho is suitable for those who love to travel, is interested in other cultures and takes care of nature. As a rule, the basis of this stylist is calm colors and natural materials.
- East - In this embodiment, the foundation of the interior is the eastern motifs, large ornaments, bright decoration, photo wallpaper with a large print, fringe, carpets with embroidery.
Determine the color
There are no restrictions on color: you can choose any paints, including bright, and combine them in any variations. In this direction, no rule of three main colors do not work, nor the principles of visual perception of space. If you want to paint the walls in a small bedroom into a dark green or black color, it means that you can do it. Like bright, almost acidic shades? Let them be, and more.
At the same time, for eco-friendly boho, which is especially popular today, characteristic of the Scandinavian style of the palette: light background and natural colors (shades of beige, gray and green, terracotta, deep blue, brick).
Combine incompatible
Finally, the main attribute of Bocho-chic in the interior is a combination, it would seem that there would be no inequate textures, ornaments and objects. In one room there may be furniture from different eras; Milmet fabrics (for example, velvet, leather and lace); immediately several finishing materials; strips, polka dots, checkered, floral or geometric pattern; Objects characteristic of different cultures.
Question: How not to overdo it and will such virtuoso combinations work without the help of a professional? The key to success is in sincerity. The very essence of the style is to reflect the personality of the owner, so it is important not to just take a set of random items, but gradually collect those that sealed in the soul, bring trophies from trips or author shops. The collection will grow, the interior is to constantly change as a living organism, and its elements are "to be friends" and "Treaten" to each other.
Design Tips for different rooms
And now we'll figure it out how to create aesthetics of boho style in the interior of the apartment (with a photo for each room).Living room
To arrange the living room you will need a lot of textiles and accessories. Be sure to use the following attributes.
- Bright multicolored plaids with ethnic ornament.
- Pillows with several different patterns.
- One big carpet or a few small, you can sash their brass.
- Curtains and tulle (interesting idea - curtains from fringe).

In Eco and East Bocho, as many indoor plants can be welcomed. They can be located on all planes: from floor to walls and ceiling on suspended porridge. From the furniture, add one or more chairs or eastern puffs to the sofa, as well as a coffee table. If the location allows - a wardrobe, a vintage chest or an open rack.
Unusually and spectacular looks in the living room of the suspension hammock or chair. For it, you can make a separate zone with its light and an additional decor.
Bedroom
In the bedroom it is important to create a comfortable atmosphere, and it does not have to be expressed in pastel colors. If you like bright colors, you can safely use it in the recreation area!
The focus of the bedroom is usually done on the bed. It can be distinguished as the most form (for example, a wooden headboard, a wrought skeleton or a base from pallet), and the design of a pallets look at such a stylist. In addition to bed linen, we decorate the sleeping place in many multicolored pillows and plaid. Support is a soft cozy carpet and curtains on the windows - for the bedroom they choose dense fabrics that do not miss the light.
In the headboard, be sure to hang the decor characteristic of the style: homemade dream catcher or panel. It can be knitted or made in the Macrame technique. As in the living room, in the recreation area you can place several pots and kashpo with green plants.
And the bedroom is not only cozy, but also functional, it can accommodate a mirror full growth in a large frame, a bedside table and a wardrobe.
If in the private zone you want to break a little from bright colors, the room can be arranged in muffled light colors, making an emphasis on textures and original decoration.
Kitchen
Bocho style in the kitchen interior is an excellent opportunity to embody all your long-standing dreams that remained only with dreams from practicality considerations. The walls of a saturated color, open shelves, bright separately worth the refrigerator - all this perfectly fit into the stylistry.
The main chips of bohemian cuisine
- Original diverse dishes, ideally handmade and in a single copy.
- All sorts of jars, baskets and other original storage methods.
- Photos, paintings and fridge magnets as decor.
- Objects from wood, brass, rattan.
You can lay a mat on the floor, put flowers or a pot with microzen, and decorate the ceiling with a lamp with a wicker flange.
Bathroom
The bathroom, made in this style, will be a real place for relax. With the help of the right decor, even on a modest area you can make a real spa. To do this, you will need aromatic candles and essential oils; Alive or artificial plants (in the first case, we prefer the unpretentious species that will survive in the conditions of the bathroom); Natural fabric rug and pleasant towels; Table shelf, if you have a separate bathtub; mirror in an unusual frame; Multi-level lighting.
To finish the bathroom, the tile of natural shades is suitable or with a bright pattern: brooms, patchwork, mosaic. Standard mixers can be replaced with retro-model, and instead of ordinary sinks to put a cup in oriental bowl on the end.
Parishion
For the hallway it is better to choose a neutral color gamut and focus on the original furniture made of wood, plywood, rattan and other similar materials. Unusually in the interior of the entrance area looks homemade items (for example, shelves or shelving), vintage and woven furniture.
Corridor can be decorated with paintings, a large plant in a clay pot, wall-mounted sconce and a mirror in a wooden or fabric frame.
