Design Report & Material List
## Design Concept
This design centers your existing tapestry as the room's soul, building a calmer, more cohesive bohemian story around it through warm terracotta walls, layered natural textures, and intentional negative space. The result feels collected rather than cluttered—a personal retreat that breathes.
## Key Decisions
- **Simplified wall arrangement**: Removed competing visual elements; kept only the macramé hangings in a vertical stack to frame the tapestry without fighting it, creating clear hierarchy and rest for the eye.
- **Upgraded bedside symmetry**: Replaced mismatched nightstands with matching woven rattan pieces and warm globe lamps, establishing rhythm and functional balance for both sides of the bed.
- **Layered bedding system**: Added a patterned coverlet in terracotta-olive tones, a cream knit throw, and mixed pillows to create depth and seasonal flexibility without buying new furniture.
- **Softened lighting layers**: String lights around the tapestry plus warm bedside lamps replace harsh overhead reliance; the existing ceiling fan stays but becomes secondary.
