Biophilic Design Meets Boho Style: A Tranquil Haven

In 2025, creating a beautiful and restorative home is more important than ever. So why not blend two of the most harmonious design styles—boho and biophilic design? These two trends may seem distinct, but when combined, they create a tranquil haven that nurtures both the body and soul. In this blog, we’ll guide you on how to seamlessly weave both into your space.

The perfect pair: Boho home style and Biophilic Design

1. What is Biophilic Design?

Biophilic design is all about reconnecting with nature—bringing elements of the outdoors into our indoor spaces.

This design philosophy is rooted in the idea that our well-being is deeply connected to the natural world, and by incorporating natural light, plants, and organic materials into our homes, we can improve our mood, creativity, and overall health. Imagine a space that’s as refreshing and peaceful as a walk in the woods.

2. Why does Bohemian complement Biophilic Design?

These styles are like two peas in a pod for a few key reasons:

• Natural materials: Both styles celebrate the beauty of nature. Think wood, rattan, cotton, and wool. These elements ground your space, bringing warmth and texture, and they create a deeper connection to the earth.

• Earthy tones and soothing hues: Boho’s palette of browns, greens, and ochres echoes the calming tones found in nature, helping to foster a serene and restful atmosphere.

• Handcrafted and artisanal touches: The boho love for handcrafted, artisanal pieces fits beautifully with biophilic design’s emphasis on organic and sustainable materials. From woven baskets to clay planters, each piece brings both character and a sense of authenticity to your space.

• Well-being and relaxation: Both biophilic and boho styles are centered around creating spaces that nourish your well-being. By combining natural elements, calming colors, and meaningful decor, you’re transforming your home into a retreat that’s perfect for unwinding, reconnecting, and simply being.

How to merge boho and biophilic design in 2025

Now that you know why these styles go hand in hand, let’s dive into how you can bring this beautiful fusion to life in your home.

1. Incorporate natural materials in your decor

From rattan wall art to jute rugs and wicker planters, natural materials are the building blocks of both boho and biophilic design. 

At Artera Home, we offer a curated selection of boho handcrafted pieces made from seagrass, bamboo, and water hyacinth materials. Think about adding a woven basket for storage or a boho wicker planter to house your favorite indoor plant—each piece will enhance the natural vibe you’re going for.

2. Embrace organic shapes and curves

Nature is full of soft, organic shapes—rounded stones, flowing water, and curved branches. Boho design naturally incorporates these shapes through rounded cushions, curved furniture. Adding these types of pieces to your space creates a calm, welcoming atmosphere that invites relaxation and ease.

3. Maximize natural light and add greenery

Let the sunlight pour in! Both boho and biophilic design thrive in well-lit spaces. Open up your curtains and let the sun brighten your room. And don’t forget the greenery! Indoor plants are essential in both styles, adding color, life, and vibrancy to your space.

3 essential tips for combining Boho and Biophilic Design

1. Find the right balance

While it’s tempting to fill your space with plants and natural materials, balance is key. Boho style often includes a mix of textures and patterns, so you want to avoid overwhelming your space. Aim for a harmonious blend where natural elements don’t compete with your boho decor but rather enhance it.

2. Consider sustainability

As you mix boho with biophilic design, keep sustainability at the forefront. Choose pieces made from eco-friendly, ethically sourced materials. At Artera Home, we prioritize sustainability by offering products that are both beautiful and responsibly made, supporting artisans who share our commitment to ethical practices.
