Ecological is an ancient Greek word, composed essentially in two parts, the first one is « science », the second one is « house » which basically means science of the house, since ecology begins at home.

In this article, we are going to write about the best tricks and ideas that will allow you to decorate your house, ecologically, naturally, in a way that will make your salon, or any other piece that you choose, distinguishable, in order to help creating a better environment for us and  for the generations to come.

A study where more than one thousand french citizens were asked has shown that 52% of the french population seem to be more and more interested in the ecological issue that threatens our planet earth and they say that they have changed their behavior following an ecological path, which shows that the majority of the french people are more and more aware of the threats of this ecological issue that we are facing as humans. This means that our everyday actions, our reflexes, our habits and even our decorations will be heavily impacted by the international trend towards ecology, all of it is in order to assure a safer planet and a better future for our kids.

When 69% of French citizens declare feeling pessimistic when it comes to the future of our planet, we are certainly in the obligation of taking a part in this worldwide challenge that concerns all of humanity.

·        The first material that comes to our minds when we speak about an ecological decoration can only be wood, the king of ecologically responsible decoration, durable and insulating, is very appreciated by everyone, as it’s considered to be the pillar of ecological decoration. Wood can dress our walls like it can cover out interior floors, wooden floors made of Chestnuts or Oak can be the perfect solution for you house especially if you are concerned with ecology, creating the visual illusion of having more space than it really is, wood doesn’t require a lot of treatment, it provides warmth and animates the visual field, because wood, very much like marble, is very rich in design and schemes, all painted by nature.

·        Since the prehistoric times, our ancestors have been using natural paint for the purpose of immortalizing their environment in their interior, they essentially painted animals, in relation to their main activities, surviving and hunting, they used paint from plants, lavender gave them purple paint, grass gave them green paint and roses gave them… (Well you know, pink). In 2022, this prehistoric skill is under the light again, natural paint offers you the possibility to colorize your walls using a natural material, using colors that contain near to 0 polluting materials for the environment. This natural paint comes in all colors, just like any other industrial paint, besides, this natural material can be used for interior and exterior walls. The most important thing when it comes to natural paint is to pay attention to the product description written on the back of the product, be sure to read it carefully before you buy the product.·       

·        Upcycling, in addition to DIY ,consists in appreciating and extracting the value that can be found in furniture and materials that are no longer used. This technique is based on waste, which you are supposed to reuse, fix and reintegrate along with your everyday furniture and decorations. Adopting these ecological habits contributes to a circular economy, where we limit the waste of our resources and thus, reduce the environmental impact caused by our modern societies.

·   A 3D agency, just to be sure : If you find that an ecological decoration will make your house change (a lot) and if that change is too much for you, there’s no need to risk ruining the look of your home decoration, you can previsualize the look of your living room (for example) on a screen, all of it can be done thanks to a 3D agency, they will take care of the 3D modelization, 3D conception and everything you need to have before investing in a real life decoration.

. Nowadays, 3D conceptions are very useful when it comes to interior decoration, they are very appreciated by professionals who want to take a look at the future decoration before going on with the decoration.

An ecologically responsible decoration is by default natural: it is mainly made of waste, upcycling and other natural materials such as wood and plants. A natural theme never ceases to amaze us, all of us! The idea is to invite your garden inside the walls of your house, creating an interior space that is truly natural, in your own way! Nature has always been a symbol for calm and serenity, such a decoration can be successful in your home only with the help of flowers, plants, arranged in a tub can be exhibited inside your house, along with wallpaper colored in green, beige or in another sober color.

·        It is recommended, in addition to ecological materials, to pick accessories for your decoration, that go along with the same theme and style, fabrics and materials that cover your sheets, salon, drapes and everything can be made of ecological textile, such as hemp, lin and coton, which all are pesticides free products and that grow very rapidly. These materials will offer you a lot of solutions when it comes to your interior.

A natural decoration can only be improvised : an old stump cut off of a tree or randomly found on the beach can be cleaned up and transformed into a small table, the sand in which it was swimming can be gathered and put in a bottle made of glass, ready to welcome a few stones or seashells , even plants found in the forest can be exposed on your table, don’t be afraid to improvise, because a natural decoration can only be that way. The whole concept rolls around the idea of DIY, appreciating and valorizing nature, starting from our own homes, that’s where everything begins.

If you are aspiring for a natural decoration in your own home, the most important thing is to have the right state of mind, everything else will go right naturally (yes, pun intended) , all you need is curiosity and patience in order to look for the most unique pieces of decoration (in flea markets for example)…That’s it!

In 2022, it is more than necessary for our generation that we become more and more conscious about this environmental issue! Let’s participate, our way, to a green future, an ecological one, natural, where biodiversity is protected and the ecosystem is well balanced.
