There is plenty of turmoil around the planet right now, so it’s no surprise to find so many of us turning to mother nature for a breath of fresh air – and this includes embracing earthy interior design ideas in our homes. We find out how to introduce earth tones and textures to your space and discover where to buy an extending dining table, stylish modular sofa and more natural home accessories.
What is an earthy interior design style?
An “earthy” interior design is one that fills a space with calmness and comfort through the use of natural materials and soft tones. Here in Hong Kong, Indigo Living’s latest trend, Earthy Elements, embraces precisely these qualities. This new collection of furniture and home accessories is for anyone looking to create a soothing sense of serenity at home.
“With unembellished designs and warm neutral tones, the earthy style is distinctive yet versatile,” says the Indigo team. “Earthy Elements’ interpretation of the style incorporates natural elements and simple forms to achieve the look and feel with timeless furniture designs.”
More specifically, it’s a look highlighted by soft, neutral and earth tones such as browns, beige and off-whites. These core colours are complemented by the organic hues of natural materials that offer a connection with nature. The use of wood, marble and tactile fabrics allows for an enriching combination of luxury and comfort.
Key pieces in the Earthy Elements collection
Flynn modular sofa in earth tones
The elegant-looking Flynn is a new modular sofa with deep seats and plush cushions designed with maximum comfort as a priority. It’s upholstered in Fila Cream bouclé, a soft and texture-rich fabric that adds a luxe tactile element to the earthy look.
The Indigo team suggests pairing the Flynn harmoniously with the Parson coffee table set, which has a durable marble patterned ceramic top and rippled glass that mimics the calmness of water.
Finsbury extending dining table
For the dining area, Finsbury is a new extending dining table that seats up to eight and offers practical flexibility tailored for city living.
Finished in walnut, it has a solid wood base that not only provides a sense of natural stability but also ensures a sliding extension that’s both smooth and sturdy. The reeded details on the legs add a layer of texture, contrasting beautifully with the matching chairs’ slender legs.
Getting started with earth tones
For someone wanting to transform their space into an earthy style, Indigo Living says that decluttering the space is always a good starting point.
“Minimise the use of bold colours and start introducing earthy tones via furnishings and accessories, from neutral rugs to artworks – these can accentuate the natural look and bring warmth into a space.”
Another earthy interior design tip is to always invest in a core piece to start the transition, be it a coffee table or a sofa, and then build the look around it.
