IKEA Ideas - 5 tips for a relaxing setting

1. Muffle sound with a mix of materials.

Know your neighbor’s favorite tune by heart? Shut out noise and enhance your acoustic comfort with a mix of different soft textiles. Upholstered furniture, cushions and rugs all combat noise pollution and envelop you with a sense of calm.

2. Personalize with your favorite scents.

Place your favorite flowers in a vase and some scented candles on a dish. These ones have a burn time of 25 hours. Whatever your thing, a touch of your favorite scent will add to your general feeling of well-being.

3. Coordinate colors.

Don’t be afraid to use unique pieces such as a handwoven rug or a contrasting cushion cover. Just stick to a harmonious palette. We went for a mix of blue and natural hues with accents in mustard yellow and metallics.

4. Create a welcoming atmosphere with varied lighting.

Candle light helps reduce stress so light some tea lights. Want to sit back with your favorite book? Fix a cozy reading corner with a floor lamp that has a strong flow of light.
