Weather or Not

It might be bleak outside, but that doesn't mean your home has to feel frigid. I.O. METRO's Natural Decor warms things right up!

We love the 5 Tips for Making Your Home Feel More Natural, from designer Brad Ford, for Lonny Magazine (www.lonnymag.com)!

1. Let the sunshine in. Keep window treatments simple and light and keep them open during the day to let in maximum light.

2. Use natural materials such as linen and wool, rough-hewn woods, leather, suede, sisal and stone. This will add warmth, texture and depth to your space.

3. Experiment with muted earth-tone colors throughout your home to create a soothing and calming environment.

4. Whether it’s fresh flowers, an orchid or a beautiful plant nothing makes a house more alive and “down to earth” than a little bit of greenery.

5. Add in an organic inspired piece of furniture to the room to help soften the lines and create interest.
