Inspiring Interiors: Dining Room: Bohemian
Foodies will love this dining room with its contemporary wall collage made up of tear sheets from food magazines and recipe books. To pull this look off, keep the rest of the décor and furniture simple. The chairs here might not be uniform, but they are painted the same turquoise shade for continuity and with more than one pendant light over the table, it works to introduce a second colour to punctuate the room. White floorboards provide the soothing base note. Visit Pedlars for a factory pendant light.

Inspiring Interiors: Dining Room: Bohemian
A colour combination that's forever in fashion, turquoise and gold is used to dramatic effect in this otherwise neutral room. There's a fine line between going for it and going overboard, so if you are opting for bright curtains then stick to a limited number of coloured accessories on top of this. Visit the French House to buy a chandelier.

Inspiring Interiors: Dining Room: Bohemian
Classic boho, is all about creating that relaxed thrown-together feel, but don't be fooled into thinking that doesn't take precision. Note the curtains in this dining room pick up on one of the main colours uniting both oriental rugs as well as the dining chairs. The chandelier and sofa, meanwhile add a touch of French styling to keep things eclectic.

Dining Room: Bohemian: White fretwork Door
Carving out a fretwork pattern on a door is a good way of adding ethnic interest and extends a sense of space to the connecting room. A soft cream colour palette keeps this rustic, bohemian dining room feminine and light. Cutting Technologies can transform a hand-drawn sketch or photo into customised fretwork.

Distressed doors and imperfectly decorated walls help create this shabby-chic look. For this aged but regal shade of purple, try Lilac Emulsion Paint from Mylands, £32.31 for 2.5 litres. The technical team at Mylands also offers advice on how to recreate similar paint effects. To put the chic into shabby, team with a sumptuous tablecloth in red or blue, from £18.99, from The London Linen Company.
