21 Aesthetic Room Ideas That Are Super Cozy<\/h1>\n

\u201cI love to add disco balls and crystal prisms to play with light,\u201d Spring says. \u201cI have several that I move around, and they make the sunset so beautiful.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Craft an oasis that’s fun and oh-so-aesthetically pleasing.<\/p>\n

\"A<\/p>\n

It may seem strange to call a room aesthetic. After all, isn\u2019t any room that\u2019s aesthetically appealing an aesthetic room?<\/p>\n

But the term aesthetic<\/em> room<\/em> has come to mean something different. Aesthetic rooms are full of striking colors and disco balls. Their walls are lined with unframed prints, and their ceilings are covered in vines. Thanks to its photogenicity and accessibility, this decor scheme has become oh-so-trendy on Instagram and TikTok. And people have adapted it, pulling elements from cottagecore, postmodern design, indie style, and more to create interiors that can really only be described with one word: aesthetic<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Meet the Expert<\/p>\n

Kaitlin Spring is a nurse anesthetist, an interior design expert, and the owner of Yin and Yang Vintage.<\/p>\n

Of course, decoding the style is one thing\u2014and drawing inspiration from it is another. So we\u2019ve rounded up 30 aesthetic rooms worth taking cues from, and we spoke to an interior design expert who has mastered the look.<\/p>\n

Paint Your Walls a Pretty Color<\/h2>\n

\"A<\/p>\n

The quickest way to update your space? Paint your walls a brand new color.<\/p>\n

\u201cPaint is often underutilized, especially when renting,\u201d Kaitlin Spring, interior design expert and owner of Yin and Yang Vintage, says. \u201cMost landlords will allow you to paint as long as you paint it back when you move out.\u201d So, set the scene with a pretty shade, like pale yellow, soft pink, or light blue.<\/p>\n

Stock Up on Objects You Love<\/h2>\n

\"A<\/p>\n

One of the things that makes aesthetic rooms so lovely is that they\u2019re filled with delightful stuff. So instead of taking a one-size-fits-all approach to d\u00e9cor, focus on scoring items you love.<\/p>\n

\u201cI believe in following your gut when it comes to style and surrounding yourself with items that make you happy,\u201d Spring says. \u201cIf you see something at a thrift store or online shop that makes you smile, pick it up and find other pretty items to go along with it.\u201d<\/p>\n

Fill Your Space With Faux Vines<\/h2>\n

\"A<\/p>\n

If you want your room to feel like it belongs in a fairytale, consider hanging faux vines everywhere you can. This romantic accent is a staple of many aesthetic rooms.<\/p>\n

Set the Mood With a Sunset Lamp<\/h2>\n

\"A<\/p>\n

Sunset lamps make any room look more photogenic, so it\u2019s little surprise that they\u2019ve become incredibly trendy. Each lamp projects a sunburst of light onto your wall, casting rings of orange, yellow, pink, or blue over your decor scheme.<\/p>\n

Turn Mementos Into Art<\/h2>\n

\"A<\/p>\n

Aesthetic d\u00e9cor is great at making budget-friendly choices look good. So if your walls are in need of a little art, skip the expensive paintings. Turn your favorite mementos into an art installation, instead.<\/p>\n

Let Your Plants Grow Long<\/h2>\n

\"A<\/p>\n

Faux vines may be a popular pick for aesthetic rooms, but you can get a similar look with live plants. How? Snag a trailing plant\u2014like a pothos, a string of pearls, or even a spider plant\u2014and let it grow incredibly long. Then, show off its length by displaying it on a high shelf or tall cabinet.<\/p>\n

Hang a Disco Ball Where You\u2019d Least Expect It<\/h2>\n

\"A<\/p>\n

Disco balls have become a fan favorite, and it\u2019s not hard to see why. The retro accents look great on their own, and they look even better when casting reflections across a room. So snag your very own disco ball, and display it somewhere surprising\u2014like on top of a stack of books or draped from a floor lamp.<\/p>\n

Mix and Match Different Lamps<\/h2>\n

\"A<\/p>\n

Layered lighting makes a classic addition to any space, allowing you to switch up your ambiance on the fly. \u201cAmbient lighting is so important,\u201d Spring says.<\/p>\n

She recommends stocking up on fun table lamps and floor lamps. And remember that you can liven things up by adding sunset lamps, lava lamps, and salt lamps, too.<\/p>\n

Leave Your Prints Unframed<\/h2>\n

\"A<\/p>\n

Frames may be a classic way to display art. But in an aesthetic room, you can mount your favorite prints directly<\/em> onto your wall. This may be a budget-friendly choice, but it\u2019s also an incredibly striking one: Instead of making your room feel like a formal gallery space, you can turn your walls into a canvas for custom collages.<\/p>\n

Push Your Bed Into a Corner<\/h2>\n

\"A<\/p>\n

There\u2019s no one-size-fits-all layout for an aesthetic bedroom. But there is one particularly popular option: pushing the bed into the corner of the room. By positioning your bed against two walls\u2014and lining those walls with faux vines, pretty prints, and other d\u00e9cor\u2014you can cozy up your space, while making it feel thoroughly decorated.<\/p>\n

Invest in Reflective Pieces<\/h2>\n

\"A<\/p>\n

One no-fail way to make your space more magical? Stock up on reflective accents.<\/p>\n

\u201cI love to add disco balls and crystal prisms to play with light,\u201d Spring says. \u201cI have several that I move around, and they make the sunset so beautiful.\u201d<\/p>\n

These shiny finds will reflect light and color around the room, leaving your space looking almost sparkly.<\/em> <\/p>\n

Make Your Gallery Wall About More Than Art<\/h2>\n

\"A<\/p>\n

Most gallery walls are made up of photos, paintings, and prints. But yours can feature other items you love, too. Instead of covering your walls in images, line them with your favorite records. Or mount a couple shelves fit for showcasing accessories, d\u00e9cor, and more.<\/p>\n

Trim Your Walls With LED Strips<\/h2>\n

\"A<\/p>\n

LED strips are a popular pick for under-cabinet lighting and other tucked-away spaces. But they can also be a great way to bring your aesthetic room together. By lining your corners with LED strips, you can brighten up your space and make it feel more cohesive.<\/p>\n

DIY a Collage Headboard<\/h2>\n

\"A<\/p>\n

Craving an unconventional way to display your favorite images? Piece together a collage headboard. By forgoing the traditional headboard and lining the wall behind your bed with images instead, you can craft a DIY headboard that you can switch up at any time.<\/p>\n

Use String Lights in Surprising Ways<\/h2>\n

\"A<\/p>\n

Budget-friendly, easy to install, and absolutely delightful, string lights are a popular way to dress up a space. And your string light options extend well beyond your ceiling. Instead of draping your string lights over your bed, use them to spotlight those fun items that make your space truly special.<\/p>\n

Make the Most of Your Corners<\/h2>\n

\"A<\/p>\n

Your gallery wall doesn\u2019t have to live on a single wall. By trading your gallery wall for a gallery corner, you can decorate two different walls in a decidedly eye-catching way.<\/p>\n

Cluster Vines in Your Entryway<\/h2>\n

\"An<\/p>\n

When decorating your home, be sure to dress up focal points\u2014like your entryway or the wall just above your bed. These are the spots your eyes will immediately jump to when you step into your space. So they\u2019re perfect candidates for statement-making aesthetic accents, like clusters of pretty vines.<\/p>\n

Commit to a Few Favorite Colors<\/h2>\n

\"A<\/p>\n

Aesthetic rooms can get pretty maximalist, but they certainly don\u2019t have to be. By sticking with a few core colors, you can diversify your accents while keeping your decor scheme clean.<\/p>\n

Snag Shelves to Showcase Your Loveliest Finds<\/h2>\n

\"Mint<\/p>\n

If you\u2019ve decided to fill your space with delightful decorative objects, you need a place to show off your finds. Sure, just about any shelf will get the job done. But why not enhance your decor scheme with a particularly pretty set?<\/p>\n

Give Your Gallery Wall a Theme<\/h2>\n

\"A<\/p>\n

Piecing together a gallery wall can be a tall order. So if you\u2019re feeling overwhelmed, simplify things by picking a theme and sticking with it. If you love botany, dedicate your gallery wall to the subject. You can even sneak in some sculptural pieces, like 3D butterfly stickers or thoughtfully placed faux vines.<\/p>\n

Score a Cute Neon Sign<\/h2>\n

\"A<\/p>\n

Retro accents\u2014like neon signs\u2014are very at home in aesthetic d\u00e9cor. So snag an option that will fill your room with color. Then, pair it with an equally retro disco ball or some oh-so classic taper candles.<\/p>\n

Mount a Shelf Above Your Bed<\/h2>\n

\"A<\/p>\n

An above-the-bed shelf goes a long way in any bedroom. And since it\u2019ll give you a go-to place to display your favorite pieces, it should make a perfect addition to your aesthetic d\u00e9cor scheme.<\/p>\n

Snag a Pack of Pretty Prints<\/h2>\n

\"A<\/p>\n

Amassing art takes time. And if you don\u2019t currently own enough prints to fill out a gallery wall, you\u2019re not out of luck. Spend some time browsing Pinterest or Etsy, and you\u2019ll find bulk packs full of pretty prints. These packs are typically the perfect size for a gallery wall\u2014and since the prints are designed to go together, you shouldn\u2019t have to do too much coordinating.<\/p>\n

Dress Up Your Vines With String Lights<\/h2>\n

\"A<\/p>\n

Vines and string lights are one of the most romantic combinations around. And since both accents play well with aesthetic decor, you can layer them to add a pop of style to any wall, corner, or piece of furniture.<\/p>\n

Invest in Playful Tape<\/h2>\n

\"A<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re mounting unframed prints directly onto your walls, you\u2019re going to need some kind of adhesive. So why not invest in some striking tape? If your tape is pretty enough to display, you can make it part of your d\u00e9cor scheme.<\/p>\n

If you’re leaving tape exposed, just make sure it is wall-friendly enough to stick all over the room.<\/p>\n

Fill Your Space With Greenery<\/h2>\n

\"A<\/p>\n

Not sold on the whole faux vine thing? Fill your space with live plants, instead. These pops of greenery will nod to the trend without mimicking it outright, helping you capture aesthetic style in a way that still feels true to you.<\/p>\n

Hunt for Pieces With History<\/h2>\n

\"A<\/p>\n

Stocking up on items from big box stores can be tempting\u2014and not to mention, convenient<\/em>. But try to resist the urge. By favoring vintage stores, thrift shops, and small businesses, you can find items that are truly special and that you\u2019ll be excited to display.<\/p>\n

\u201cI really try to find unique pieces,\u201d Spring says. \u201cNot trying to diss those that love major brands, but finding furniture gems at thrift stores and vintage shops is just so much more fun and exciting for me. I love how all the items in my home have a story\u2014either from their age or just from how I found them! <\/p>\n

Add Some Cozy Finishing Touches<\/h2>\n

\"A<\/p>\n

No space is complete without a few finishing touches. So once you\u2019ve filled your home with fun furniture, playful d\u00e9cor, and eye-catching art, top things off with some cozier items\u2014like a vase of fresh flowers, or a plush throw you\u2019ll love to snuggle up with. These items can make your space feel homier and more personal, which is key when you\u2019re drawing so much inspiration from one style.<\/p>\n

Make the Room Your Own<\/h2>\n

\"A<\/p>\n

Aesthetic rooms have a clearly defined look. (You know an aesthetic room when you see one). But at the end of the day, you still want your room to feel like yours. So take what you want from the style, and leave what you don\u2019t want behind.<\/p>\n

\u201cDesign yourself a home that you really want to come back to,\u201d Spring says. That means drawing inspiration from the style\u2014not copying and pasting it onto your space.<\/p>\n

Take Your Time<\/h2>\n

\"A<\/p>\n

Remember that it takes time to craft a space that looks incredible. And there\u2019s no shame in outfitting your home, piece by piece. In fact, Spring recommends it.<\/p>\n

\u201cTake your time,\u201d she says. \u201cIf you fill your home with items that have a story\u2014that you took time to find\u2014you really won\u2019t regret it!\u201d<\/p>\n

Aesthetic rooms are having a major moment. Popular especially among TikTok users, aesthetic rooms are characterized by the presence of greenery (think plants or hanging vines, both real or faux); muted colors (neutrals and pinks are most common); and fun light fixtures (like LED strands or string lights).<\/p>\n

What Does “Aesthetic” Mean?<\/h3>\n

The term “aesthetic,” when used in the decor examples featured on TikTok, Instagram, and other image-based websites, refers to any attractive room style that makes use of truly personal touches that are also “on-trend.” Thus, the term means more than just “pleasing in appearance.” For TikTok and Instagram enthusiasts, “aesthetic” can apply to a room of any style, but personal expression and trend-setter timeliness will always be just as important as the classic standards for visual appeal.<\/p>\n

“Personal expression plays a major role in what is deemed aesthetic, as there are so many different design styles to draw from,” TikTok user and design enthusiast Emily Shaw says. Many aesthetic rooms also incorporate personal touches like photo collages, printed photographs, and art prints.<\/p>\n

Looking to bring the trend into your own space? Look no further than the aesthetic bedrooms below.<\/p>\n

Add Calming Pink Tones<\/h2>\n

\"aesthetic<\/p>\n

When in doubt, try an accent wall. This pale pink adds warmth in an otherwise neutral bedroom. Plants are a key component of aesthetic rooms, and what better way to display them than on a floating shelf? Dried pampas grass is also a glam touch and will last much longer than a traditional bouquet of flowers, making it a low-maintenance fave.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
