Bringing the Outdoors In: Nature-Inspired Interior Design

There's something innately soothing and rejuvenating about nature. The sun's warm glow, the diverse textures of foliage, the rich, earthy scent of soil—these elements bring us comfort and tranquility, grounding us in the here and now.

In a world where we spend much of our time indoors, especially in recent years, bringing the outdoors in through our interior design choices can offer a welcome touch of nature's restorative qualities.

At Emberr, we are strong advocates for nature-inspired design, understanding its potential to create spaces that not only look good but also feel good.

Nature-Inspired Colors

Colors have a significant impact on the ambiance of a space and our mood within it. For a nature-inspired palette, draw from the shades found outdoors. Soft greens can evoke a sense of growth and renewal, while blues can bring a calming, water-inspired touch. Earthy browns, beiges, and tans can lend a grounded, comforting feel.

Natural Light

Few things can beat the restorative power of natural light. It can lift our spirits, boost our productivity, and help regulate our body's natural rhythms. Make the most of natural light by using sheer curtains or installing skylights. Mirrors can also help reflect light into darker corners of a room.

Organic Materials

Incorporate natural materials like wood, stone, bamboo, wool, and rattan into your furniture and decor. These materials not only bring a piece of the outdoors inside but also add rich textures that can make a space feel more dynamic and inviting.

Plants

Indoor plants are perhaps the easiest way to bring a touch of nature into your home. They add color, purify the air, and can even boost mood and productivity. From large leafy plants to small succulents, there are options to suit every space and level of gardening expertise.

Biophilic Design

Biophilic design is a concept in interior design that seeks to connect building occupants more closely to nature. Elements of biophilic design include visual connections with nature, like having a window with a garden view, and direct physical contact with nature, such as an indoor water feature.

At Emberr, our team of experienced architects and interior designers are ready to help you incorporate elements of nature into your space, creating a peaceful, revitalizing environment that meets your unique aesthetic and functional needs.
