Hot Décor Trend: Jungalow

A combination of jungle and bungalow, jungalow is about incorporating an exotic, island design into your home, and it’s just perfect for spring. Here are tips on how to achieve it.

Dare To Do More

The jungalow trend is a good fit for you if you want to incorporate different patterns and colours into your décor. Basically, it’s about being bold!

Pair Brights With Bolds

You might think that you need to combine bright or bold colours with neutrals, but jungalow changes all that. You can work your brightest and boldest shades with each other! Think teaming up a leaf-patterned wallpaper with red throws or yellow cushions. It’s all about the contrast and loads of colour you’d find in a beautiful jungle.

Mix Different Prints

Don’t think that one print in the room is enough – if you’ve got a wallpaper print, for instance, don’t be afraid to use others prints on the bed or table. As long as they look good together, they work.

To prevent the prints from making your décor too busy, however, you might want to bring a bit of a neutral background to keep things smooth and to highlight your prints. But remember, neutral doesn’t mean beige by default – it can be pale yellow, grey, or navy.

Bring in Nature

Wooden furniture and plants create a nice touch to your vibrant prints and colours, finishing off the jungalow look. When adding some greenery to your room, make sure that it feels island-like. Opt for plants that are dramatic or with large leaves and bright flowers.

Mix Materials

You want to be adventurous with the Jungalow trend, so choose different metals for the same space, like copper and brass. These also look great against greenery. You could also combine glass with wood or stone, which will look earthy against different fabrics. It’s all about playing around with different textures, metals, and looks to see the ones that create a bohemian yet chic style.
