Earthy Living trend continues to influence furniture, décor
Organic aesthetic creates balance between home, nature
September 19, 2024
The Earthy Living trend has continued to see a significant rise in popularity – especially in home décor and furniture. Rooted in sustainability, natural materials, and a soothing, organic aesthetic, this design philosophy resonates with consumers who seek harmony between their homes and the natural world.
Here at Darvin Furniture & Mattress, we’ve noticed this growing trend in how our customers make purchasing decisions, choosing items that reflect a more grounded, nature-inspired lifestyle. We have also noticed it shows no signs of slowing down.
Materials/Colors
At the core of Earthy Living is the use of natural materials. Think of warm woods like oak, walnut, or pine, which bring both texture and authenticity to any room. Paired with these woods are neutral color palettes, predominantly featuring shades of brown, beige, terracotta, and soft greens. These colors evoke a sense of calm and comfort, creating an inviting, serene environment that allows homeowners to feel more connected to nature.
Sustainability
In addition to natural materials and colors, sustainability is a key factor driving the popularity of Earthy Living. As people become more eco-conscious, they look for furniture and décor made from sustainable or recycled materials.
Whether it’s a coffee table made from reclaimed wood or upholstery woven from organic fibers, shoppers are prioritizing pieces that not only look good but are also good for the environment.
Biophilic Design
Another key component of the Earthy Living trend is biophilic design, which integrates natural elements into the home. This can mean indoor plants, raw stone accents, or water features that blur the lines between indoor and outdoor living spaces.
The goal of biophilic design is to bring the tranquility of the outdoors into the comfort of home, creating a refreshing escape from urban life (even if the home is located in the middle of a metro area).
With its emphasis on sustainability, simplicity, and natural beauty, Earthy Living is more than just a trend, it’s a lifestyle choice that aligns with growing environmental awareness and a desire for balance in our fast-paced world.
At Darvin Furniture & Mattress, we are proud to offer a wide range of products that reflect these modern values. Our Orland Park, Illinois, showroom has an extensive selection of accent items to create your very own Earthy Living space while featuring brand names that offer entire lines dedicated to bringing nature indoors.
