How to Use Earthy Tones in Interior Design

When it comes to decorating your home, you’re probably looking for ways to make it stand out. After all, who wants their home to look like everyone else’s? If you’re ready to get creative with your decor, why not try using earthy tones?

From the warm tones of terracotta to the cool shades of stone, there are a variety of earthy tones that can be used to create a unique and stylish space. Not sure how to get started? We’ve got you covered. In this blog post, we’ll show you how to use earthy tones in your flooring, furniture, and even in modern interior design.

What Are Earth Tones?

Technically speaking, earth-toned colours are any that are found naturally in the world around us. This typically includes colours like brown, green, grey, orange, red, and yellow. These colours are often associated with nature, which is why they’re so popular in earthy home interiors or “green” design schemes.

How to Use Earthy Tones in Flooring

If you’re looking to add a touch of earth-tone interior design to your home, one great way to do it is with your flooring. Rich wood floors are always a classic choice, but you can also go for more modern options like bamboo or cork. For a truly unique look, try using tiles or stone in shades of brown, green, or orange. Just make sure to balance out the earth tones with white or neutral-coloured walls so the overall effect isn’t too overwhelming.

Earthy interiors can also be brought to life with carpet, laying the foundation for earthy home decor with natural materials. Choose sustainable fibres like coir, sisal or seagrass which have naturally golden and soft green shades that welcome nature into your home with ease. Wool carpet is another excellent choice to create a calm and comforting feel underfoot. The beauty of wool carpet is that it’s available in a variety of colours so you can choose your favourite earthy tone. 

How to Use Earthy Tones with Furniture

Another way to incorporate earth tones into your home is with your furniture. If you have wooden furniture in the dining room, try staining it in a shade of brown or red. Or if you prefer upholstered pieces, look for fabrics in hues of green or orange. You can even find artwork or decorations that feature earthy colours like these. Why not introduce earthy tones into your bedroom design with wooden furniture, a patterned rug to add depth and texture or through soft furnishings?

Just be careful not to go overboard—a little bit of earth tone goes a long way!

How to Use Earthy Tones in Modern Interior Design

Contrary to popular belief, earthy modern interior design is a match made in heaven. The key is to pair them with clean lines and sharp angles for a look that is both stylish and sophisticated. For instance, in earth-tone living rooms, try using burnt orange accents against a background of white walls and black furniture so the colours really pop in natural light. 

Or mix and match different shades of chocolate brown and green for an organic feel. Regardless of how you use them, earth tones can embrace natural elements and add just the right amount of warmth and personality to any space. 

As you can see, there are many ways to use earthy tones in your decor. Whether you’re looking for a rustic feel or something more modern, these colours can help you achieve the look you’re going for. Just remember to use them sparingly so they don’t overwhelm the space. With a little bit of creativity, you can easily incorporate earth tones into your home in a way that looks both beautiful and stylish!
