How to Bring Warmth Into Your Home

How to Bring Warmth Into Your Home

Living in a home with a lot of square footage can often feel vast or even cavernous, especially if it also has an open floor plan, vaulted ceilings and floor-to-ceiling windows.

But, with a few careful design and decor choices, you can make even the largest of homes feel cozy.

If you’re hoping to make your home feel more comfortable before the temperatures drop, read this for five simple ways to do so.

  1. Add indoor greenery. Foliage isn’t just for your landscaping. Installing a green wall or having potted succulents can help make a home feel more lived-in and welcoming. You could even add a small herb garden to your kitchen.

  2. Incorporate more fabrics. Great rugs, thick blankets, soft throw pillows and richly hued window treatments are all excellent ways to give a space an inviting feel with little effort.

  3. Use soft lighting. Skip fluorescent lighting and large overhead fixtures to make a space feel less stark. Instead, focus on warmer options like table lamps, under-cabinet lights, wall sconces and hanging pendant lights.

  4. Play to the senses. Find a way to stimulate the senses in your space. Consider adding pleasant-smelling floral bouquets, the soft trickle of a water wall or fountain, or a buttery-soft chaise lounge.

  5. Decorate with warm color schemes. Bright whites and other monochromatic color schemes only make rooms feel wider (and colder). Picking warmer tones — like yellows, golds and oranges — can make even a large space feel more intimate.
