Incorporating colors of nature in your sanctuary will promote thoughtful contemplation and stir up peaceful thoughts. Adding wall art in cool tones depicting nature promotes a serene feeling of tranquility. Pairing accent pieces with more neutral elements in the space will make your Zen space just the thing you need to quiet a busy mind at the end of a hectic day.

Keep Furniture Simple and Natural

Nothing says Zen-like cohesive furnishing. Furniture characterized by clean lines, solid silhouettes, earthy muted colors made from natural materials brings a sense of warmth and relaxation to space. The goal is to choose functional furniture with a minimalistic feel to add some peace and tranquility to your space.
