Celebrate the raw beauty of the natural world in your interior with these down-to-earth trends

The biophilic design trend is all about using the natural materials around us to create exciting interiors with an enticingly rustic feel, combining natural forms, organic textures and greenery.

Here are our hand-picked ideas for how you can celebrate the beauty and rawness of the natural world in your home.

Cosy materials

There's something comfortingly rugged about these curtains in Boheme Hemp. In this reading nook, they help to create a neutral setting, balancing out the creamy tones and playing up to the texture.

Combine with heavy natural materials, like coir, sisal and hessian from floor coverings to plant pots to complete the naturally cosy look.

Eco-friendly fabrics

The need for sustainable design has never been more important and we're proud to offer our range of recycled Roller blind fabrics manufactured from 100% recycled polyester yarn, originating from recycled PET polyester plastic bottles.

By choosing sustainable fabrics, we're able to deliver the same high-quality performance blinds with a smaller impact on our natural environment. Not only are you creating a look that will help bring calm and serenity to you and your home, you're also creating a more sustainable living space.

The warmth of wood

For a bolder look that’s still warm and inviting, introduce shades of soft amber into your palette. These Vivado Russet Roman blinds bring a boho style to this living space with red-brown, charcoal and pale grey hues blurring and blending for a really soft finish.

Natural jute rugs, wicker belly baskets and macramé dreamcatchers celebrate all things artisan, while animal skin throws lend an almost primitive, tribal feel.

Rare qualities

This look is all about taking raw ingredients and mixing them together to create innovative and exciting interiors that truly embrace biophilic design. The juxtaposition of natural fabrics, worn-down and painted wood tones with the rigid plastic panelling transforms this dining room into a futuristic and visionary space.

Tropical greenery breathes life into the room, while a wave header style allows the curtains to drape in soft, rippling folds, enhancing the natural, laid-back feel.

Natural light

In our Calm collection we have an exciting range of Pure Hemp fabrics.

Hemp is really a valuable fabric when it comes to sustainability. It’s easy and fast to grow with minimal chemicals and minimal waste, which is great news for the environment.

Beautifully soft, tactile hemp curtains are perfect in this living space, with the soothing colour palette making the room feel warm and relaxed.

Leafy patterns

The lush, vibrant blooms and natural shapes of our Greenery Tropical Roller blinds can thrive in any home environment.

For these patio doors, we've chosen a Perfect Fit frame, which simply clips onto the uPVC windows with the Roller blinds fitting snugly inside for a  sleek and streamlined look.
