What is slow living in your home?

Sometimes all we need to do is slow down, take care of ourselves, enjoy life and relax.

Create a soothing and balanced living environment

Would you like a house where you would like to come home? A home that radiates an oasis of peace and tranquility? Do you want to integrate slow living into your interior? I'm going to give you tips and ideas to transform your space into a harmonious place where you escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life.

What is slow living?

Slow living is a lifestyle that revolves around awareness, calmness and enjoying the moment. Leave the hustle and bustle of modern life behind and focus on what really matters. Now that sounds very flat and easy to say. What inspires Roeloffs about this is the philosophy behind it. How do we function without being swallowed up by the hustle and bustle of everything around us and how do we stay in touch with ourselves? Slow living can also be applied to the interior of your home, creating a feeling of well-being and serenity.

Minimalist base

An important aspect of a slow living interior is minimalism. Get rid of unnecessary items and only keep what really adds value. (Of course no one does this!) What you can do is clean up and store your things, but not everything in plain sight. Give important things a place and keep your home tidy. You do not have to decorate your entire interior minimalistically. Our handmade home decoration also gives you this vibe. In a household with children, for example, your home is certainly not always tidy and minimalist. By adding stylish slow-living home decoration, you can still create peace and harmony in your space.

Natural materials

Bring nature into your home. Use materials that radiate warmth and authenticity. This is reflected in your interior. Choose sustainable and environmentally friendly materials to strengthen the slow living concept.

Plants in your interior

Plants are indispensable, they purify the air, provide a feeling of connection with nature and have a soothing effect. Did you know that our handmade candle pots can be reused as plant pots?

Space for reflection

A slow living interior offers space for reflection and introspection. Create a corner where you can relax. Provide a comfortable sitting/lying area with soft cushions and plaids. Add elements such as home decoration, photos or scented candles that help you relax and unwind.

A tidy feeling

A tidy house is a tidy mind. Do you have children like us with way too many toys? Then I recommend the Kallax cabinets from Ikea. All the toys in a box, the box in the cupboard and it looks tidy again.

Scents that support you

Scent has a powerful effect on our mood and contributes to a relaxed atmosphere. Use scented candles, room spray, scented sticks or incense to perfume your interior. The Inner Peace collection fits perfectly with the slow living interior concept.

Transform your interior into a paradise of peace and harmony

Minimalist materials, soft lighting, plants and your own space. Create your own harmonious living environment that helps you escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Enjoy the moment and completely relax in your own home.
