Decorating your yurt may be challenging because of its round shape. You’re not used to adding decor or furniture to a space without corners. Don’t worry; this blog will explore a few creative design ideas to help you decorate your yurt. You’ll have the perfect yurt in no time!
Add a Loft
A loft provides additional privacy and space. It’s the perfect place for kids to hang out or you to get some much needed sleep. It’s nice to have a designated sleeping space in a yurt. The lack of interior walls doesn’t provide much privacy, but building a loft will create the best hideaway.
Add Modern Decor
A modernly decorated yurt will have a light and airy feel. Grey and white tones will create a cozy, open feel that you and guests will find inviting. Remember to pick simple furniture fabrics, as loud or busy prints will disrupt the simplistic vibe of the space. If you want a pattern, opt for clean lines and minimalistic designs.
Ensure the floor plan maintains an open feel. Closing off areas will interrupt the yurt’s flow. Choose furniture that has multiple purposes. Look for dining room tables that can extend to accommodate guests. Using a murphy bed is another excellent idea. Fold it away during the day to keep the open flow.
Add a Wraparound Deck
Building a wraparound deck will add a wonderful, aesthetic touch to your yurt while providing additional space for everyone to gather. If you live in a warm, tropical climate, you can add an outdoor kitchen or shower to the deck. Creating more indoor/outdoor spaces will maximize your square footage and help you feel closer to nature—which is what owning a yurt is all about.
Add a Beachy Theme
A coastal or beachy-themed yurt should prioritize light. There’s an abundance of sunshine found in many coastal locations. Delegate rooms in the yurt using whitewashed chests and wardrobes. This beachy theme idea will help keep the yurt bright while creating designated spaces.
Simple, clean fabrics pair best with a beachy theme. Add nautical print throw pillows or beachy trinkets from your coastal travels. These decor items will drive home the theme. Look for natural fiber rugs to create a true beach-like setting.
So, what are you waiting for? Use these design ideas and get started decorating your yurt today! If you’re still picking out a yurt, choose a yurt-cabin for optimum space and efficiency. You’ll enjoy the yurt feel with a modern twist.
