Embracing a Love for Travel in Your Home

Do you have a passion for travel? If you consider yourself to be a globetrotter who has a passion for experiencing new places and cultures, you will want to incorporate this love of travel into your home decor. There are all kinds of ways that you can do this to create a space that will reflect your personality and lifestyle and help you feel at home (when you aren’t out seeing the world!).

Showcasing Collectables

The best way to show your love of travel is to showcase the souvenirs you brought back from your various adventures. These can be a great way to introduce different cultures into your home and will always be excellent conversation starters! You will want to enhance the aesthetics of the room and avoid clutter, so showcasing collectables in your fitted wardrobe in the bedroom could be a good option. You could also group relevant items to avoid a mismatch of styles.

Artwork

Displaying artwork throughout the home that depicts your travel adventures or places you want to visit is another effective way to show your love of global adventures. This could be photos that you have taken yourself, paintings of natural landscapes, or prints of iconic destinations around the world. Make sure that you use a high-quality frame that complements the artwork and hang the artwork at eye level to create a gallery wall and balanced look.

Textures & Fabrics

Another way to showcase your love of travel and create an interesting interior is with textures and fabrics from different countries and cultures around the world. Rugs, cushions, throws, and curtains from various places around the world can add a sense of depth and interest to your home. Of course, you want to avoid too many colours and textures to maintain a sense of harmony, but wool, silk, and cotton can all work well together.

Mixing Styles & Cultures

Following this, it can be difficult to mix styles and cultures while creating a balanced look. A mix-and-match style allows you to incorporate designs and styles from around the world, but you do not want to create an incohesive and cluttered look. To achieve this, you should start with a neutral base in terms of wall colour and furniture. You can then add standpoint pieces and make sure that all items are balanced in terms of size to create a cohesive look.

Hopefully, this post will help you create a space that reflects your love and passion for travel. Travel can change your life in many ways, so it is understandable if you want to incorporate this into your home design. This can be challenging, though, especially when it comes to introducing items from different cultures and areas of the world. With a careful approach, you can create a harmonious look that demonstrates your love of global adventures.

I know what it's like to go from being a crazy backpacker without a care in the world, via being a vaguely sensible parent to being an adventurer once more. In other words, evolving into a Grown-up Traveller.

Like everyone else, I love to travel, have visited a lot of countries and all that but my big thing is Africa.

I also own and run The Grown-up Travel Company as a travel designer creating personalised African itineraries for experienced adventurers
