Bohemian-style bedrooms are fun, free-spirited and laid-back. Their chic, eclectic vibe makes them unique and full of character. From ornately carved bed frames and dressers to macrame wall hangings, it’s relatively easy to create your dream bedroom once you’re familiar with the boho style.

Bohemian, or “boho” style originated in Paris, France, largely inspired by the Romani nomadic way of life (the French word ‘bohémien’ meaning Romani). The Romani of Central Europe were known for their dress style and richly colored textiles that stood out against the styles of the time. The movement represented nonconformity and self-expression in the 19th century, and this spirit continues in bohemian design.
Bohemian furniture and decor mix different colors, patterns and textures — think the exact opposite of minimalism. Intricately carved wood, handwoven jute and rattan materials are popular for this style. Botanical elements are classic for boho decor, including floral, plant and animal imagery. With nature being a prevalent theme, faux or real plants will also complement the space.
Bohemian style aligns closely with spirituality, featuring Buddhist themes and symbolism, such as the mandala. Brightly colored Moroccan, Turkish and Persian pieces work well with boho decor. Macrame and embellishments such as beading and tassels are in style, as well. Hanging planters and chairs, along with low-to-the-ground furniture, also create the casual aesthetic you want for a boho bedroom.
