Style (E)scapes: Bohemian Patio Palettes

A few days ago I showed you some inspired color palettes for modern patio spaces – well, today I bring you some palettes for my favorite style patio – bohemian! To me, the modern bohemia look laid back, worldly, comfortable, and eclectic. It is influenced by many cultures and surroundings – everything from the tropics and jungles to the beach! There aren’t a lot of rules here, and the color inspirations range from bright and bold to neutral and warm. Enjoy!
A colorful mix of blues and oranges is perfect for creating a festive space! Shades of red, pink and orange make for a very different palette than you’ll see in most gardens.
Neutrals get a boost from bright oranges and vibrant greens creating a gorgeous two-tone palette.
Bohemian doesn’t have to mean bright. Sometimes the best palette is a base of warm neutrals and fresh white.
While indoors, this palette may seem a bit masculine or dull, in the outdoors, surrounded by lush greens, it’s perfectly simple and soothing.
For something right in between netural and bright, select muted natural colors like eggplant, mustard, olive green, terra cotta, and clay.

    Being a girl who naturally gravitates towards muted colors and tone, I absolutely love the four one down! The neutrals are so classy, inviting, and warm. These patios look so airy, breezy, and a great place to cool off!

    I ADORE the #1 – something about the bright colors reminds me of a hot moroccan summer. Excellent work!
