7 Ways to incorporate the Organic Modern trend in your home
Organic modern design is, as the name suggests, a focus on organic elements and a clutter-free vibe.
An interior like this should have a muted colour pallet, soft shapes and organic materials and accessories that accentuate those soft, organic forms but don’t overwhelm it.
So, how can you get the ‘Organic Modern’ vibe in your home?
The beauty of this style is that you don’t need to go ‘all in’ and get rid of any furniture and decor that doesn’t 100% complement the look. You can make small changes that give a nod to the trend without throwing all your furniture away and breaking the bank.
Here’s 7 ways you can incorporate the Organic Modern trend into your home..
1. Embrace Neutrals
A soft, muted, natural colour palette is a key element of this interior design style. Its easy to add neutral colours to your space, think about painting your walls, adding cushions and throws with light, natural shades.
Adapting your colour palette will immediately make the space feel softer and calmer and will make other elements stand out even more.
2. Accessorise with organic shapes
This is where you can really have some fun! Organic modern encompasses curves and arches, taking from minimalist lines, but also a nod from organic forms found in nature. Look for furniture made in natural and warm woods, like stunning sculptural mango coffee tables or curved armchairs.
3. Add depth and contract with greenery
Plants and other greenery like twigs are the perfect way of accessorising the room. Plants themselves are organic, sculptural forms and inject a bolt of green to break up the neutrals. Go big and add large floor plants to inject some height and help add scale to the space.
4. Accentuate with wood panelling
Warm natural materials are one of the biggest elements of Organic Moderns. You can add warmth to ceilings and walls with faux-wood beams or unpainted wood panelling. Acoustic panelling is a great and cost effective way of getting the look on a budget, plus it's easy to install.
5. Invest in an iconic curved sofa
If you can afford it, a curved sofa will give you immediate organic modern vibes and you’ll be the envy of everyone you know.Go for the lightest colour you can get away with and opt for a Boucle material as its the ultimate natural texture, giving plenty of warmth and is bang on trend, and that trend is set to stay.
6. Add accessories with organic forms
The modern organic look only works if you don’t over-accessories, so hide clutter and just showcase those accessories that add to the look.
Opt for vases with curves, arches, scallops in muted shades either as statements on their own or grouped with other objects like coffee table books to make a natural vignette with organic materials like wood, marble, rattan, leather, paper and ceramics.
7. Create atmosphere with statement lighting
No scheme is complete without statement lighting, so If you want the wow factor choose a pendant light with clean lines that helps anchor the room.
For a muted natural colour palette, black ceiling, table and floor lights in simple and flowing forms all add drama to a room and help elevate it to the next level.
Alternatively you can opt for curvy light wood floor lamps or table lamps with white marble bases to add additional materials and pattern to the scheme.
