2. WHAT IS INTERIOR DESIGN?
Designing a space means shaping the experience that a
person will have inside it. An experience that will also
affect their life and, of course, their mood.
Interior design is a project that defines how a space will
function, how it will look, and how it will appeal to the
senses. It should fit the needs, cultures and lifestyle of
those that inhabit it.
Interior design, planning and design of man-made spaces,
closely related to architecture. Although the desire to
create a pleasant environment is as old as civilization
itself, the field of interior design is relatively new.

WHAT ARE DIFFERENT DESIGN STYLES?

4. CONTEMPORARY BOHEMIAN STYLE
INTERIOR DESIGN STYLE
Contemporary style The art of today, globally influenced and culturally
diverse. lack of uniform organizing, principle, ideology or -ism No single
style is dominant
Bohemianism its a practice of unconventional lifestyle expressed as free
love or free spirit. from french word bohemia meaning tribe gypsy
Contemporary style emerged in late 20th century. Bohemianism is practice
of living from late 19th century. The fusion of these two styles is
contemporary bohemianism lately trending in interior decor.

5. CONTEMPORARY
BOHEMIAN
Looking at Bohemian interiors, you see a vast range of styles from
beautiful Moroccan inspired schemes that are bursting with colour
and pattern, interiors that are inspired by the gorgeous rich and
colourful textiles of the Sub Continent. There is a Mexican flavour
too, depending upon the part of the world you happen to be in.I have
noticed lately though that Boho style is getting a makeover and
although the beautiful flashes of colour are still apparent, the look is
a little more pared back. we call this Contemporary Bohemian Style.
When furnishing, look for pieces that possess ethnic or nomadic
vibes. Moroccan, Southwestern, or tribal-inspired designs are
currently trending. Composition-wise, boho chic loves textile, wood,
animal hide, and metallic accents.

6. A Bohemian style interior is not complete without a statement piece of Mid-Century style furniture.
This could be a sideboard, dining table and chairs or even just some accent pieces – a coffee and side
table. I partner these with comfortable contemporary sofas and non-matching occasional chairs and
incorporate relaxed style items like floor cushions, rattan stools and foot rests.
FURNITURE
The thing about contemporary Bohemian interiors is that you introduce colour from cushions, rugs,
kilims and artworks but you pare it back slightly. Rather than the full on jumble of colour that a
traditional Boho style commands, a modern version relies more on varying levels of white. In fact
pretty similar to Scandi style. These two really do crossover and I often find that people like both and
often start with a Scandi look but add interesting pieces to make it more of a Bohemian look.
THE RIGHT COLOURS
The finishing touch though really brings this all together and a contemporary Bohemian style would
not be complete without some greenery, preferably in large rattan baskets or in braided macramé
ceiling hangers. You should include some interesting artefacts collected from your travels, beautiful
vintage colourful porcelain and pottery and of course, the ubiquitous guitar.

9. CONCLUSION
it’s a bright, patterned, multi-cultural melange of memorable layers and elements one simply can’t miss or
forget for its uniqueness. This style refers to socially unconventional and often involved in the arts,
making it a great interior design option for a rich and heady space full of visual interest and a relaxed
spirit. This is what makes CONTEMPORARY BOHEMIAN style so distinctive and viable
