Plus, adding these hues can easily be done with confidence and without much effort or having to change existing interior design plans.

What ARE Earthy Tones?

Before getting started, what are earthy tones and natural hues? They are the colors of the Earth! Beige, terracotta, amber, rust, taupe, and other browns. You could even expand to hues such as stone gray, tinted black, and warm chocolates for more options. These colors offer endless inspiration while promoting well-being, tranquility, and calmness.

Now, let’s explore how to add these tones to your interior design with style and assurance.

Sprinkle in Other Colors

To get more of a natural effect, sprinkle in other colors with earthy tones such as greens. For example, complement natural woods (see below) and earthy tones with darker browns and authentic greenery. This can be accomplished by adding plants to your interior décor, which also purifies the air. We recommend the following:

• Fiddle Leaf Fig Tree: This is a bushy tree that does well in rooms that get plenty of sun. Keep in mind, that this plant does need weekly watering.
• Palm Plant: This is another plant that flourishes in the sun. What makes this plant great is it comes in a variety of sizes ranging from small to big.
• Snake Plant: This is the plant for you if you are looking for a plant that thrives in indirect sunlight and requires infrequent watering. Another plus, the Snake Plant is known to absorb negativity.

Adding green plants to your interior design is also a great way to bring nature indoors with earthy tones.

Bring Nature Indoors

A goal of interior design since the pandemic is to reconnect with nature and develop a bond with the world outside. On top of painting the walls inside your home natural shades and earthy tones, pairing them with components like plants, brings nature into your home. Plants and other aspects of nature are calming to the eye and add productivity to your space. You can also add natural materials to your interior design to achieve this.

Add Natural Materials

Natural material also helps with sustainability. This material consists of linen, cotton, wool, rattan, and stone. All of which come in earthy tones. These materials can be found in furniture, décor, or even natural wood for a more dramatic effect. The best thing about natural materials besides the sustainability part is that they can be added to any room. By incorporating natural materials, plants, and earthy tones, you can really achieve a nature-inspired home with confidence and filled with benefits.
