Basic tips for natural style design
Take advantage of the natural style's good vibrations to completely unwind in your home. Forget about your smartphone for a few hours and immerse yourself in this haven of calm and relaxation. Here are some basic tips for applying the natural design style to your home.
There are design elements that you don't just see, but also feel and touch. That's what we like most about natural materials, because they have personality and their own life. Would you like to design your home like this?
Here are some ideas and design tips so that you can create (even if it's just a little corner) using this spring trend.
Explore the pleasure of natural materials
As we live in such a digitalised world, embracing the physical is essential if we want to reconnect with ourselves and not lose our sense of well-being. In this sense, natural materials help us so much. Sea rattan, cotton and old wood are just some of the many examples of materials that make up the natural or naturalist design style. They are nice to touch, they look great in the home and, if that wasn't enough, they are more sustainable than many other materials.
Natural choices for rugs
A rug can be that detail your home needs to give it a much more natural and cosy style. In this little nook, we have used the LOHALS, a rug made of jute. It's a very durable material that is also recyclable. So if you get tired of it tomorrow or need to change it, you can do it in an environmentally friendly way.
Tip: don't forget to put a non-slip protector underneath your rug to avoid accidents.

Single boxes
As well as being useful, boxes are a perfect complement to any area of your home. Boxes that are made of natural materials, like those shown in the picture (the (FRYKEN) are very special and unique. Sea rattan has natural colour variations, so you'll never find two with the same design. Considering this and the fact that they are handmade, we are certain that they'll be a great option for decorating your home in a natural style.
If you're not convinced by boxes, you can always choose baskets. For example, our FLÄDIS is also handmade using sea rattan. Oh! And if you have a KALLAX, we're sure that our KNIPSA baskets will give them a much more natural touch, as well as being great for storing things and keeping everything tidy.
Natural textiles with a special texture
Natural materials are perfect for textiles. As well as being extremely attractive, they feel totally unique to the touch. The textures of the bed linen, rugs and cushions invite us to enjoy their softness. The ruggedness and freshness that they offer makes them essential for this style of natural design.
From the tough branch to the cotton fabric, these are textiles to surround yourself with, not only for your actual needs but also for your emotions.
