Remodelista armchair-traveled to the Southwest this past week for design inspiration, specifically to New Mexico, southern California, and other hot and dry (and chic) locales.
The Desert Dreaming trend is a design aesthetic inspired by the natural beauty of desert landscapes. It incorporates earthy tones, minimalist décor, and sustainable materials.
To bring the Desert Dreaming trend into your home, opt for natural materials like rattan, jute, and clay. Choose a neutral color palette with shades of sand, beige, and dusty pink. Incorporate desert plants, such as cacti and succulents, for a touch of greenery.
Yes, some furniture and decor pieces associated with Desert Dreaming include rattan chairs, clay pots, woven wall hangings, and layered textiles in natural fibers. Other elements like terracotta tiles and wooden accents also complement this trend.
Key characteristics of the Desert Dreaming style include simplicity, minimalism, natural textures, and a focus on sustainability. It embraces the beauty of imperfections and the use of raw materials found in the desert landscape.
To create a Desert Dreaming outdoor space, use natural materials like stone, gravel, and teak wood. Incorporate comfortable seating with cushions in earthy tones. Add desert plants and succulents in planters and create a cozy atmosphere with string lights or lanterns.
