Let’s build your dream room the Olio way.

1. A Statement Poster

Every aesthetic room begins with iconic wall art — album covers, minimal lines, vintage photos, or modern art.

2. Ambient Lighting

From mushroom lamps to lanterns, soft lighting is key to creating a calming vibe.

3. A Cozy Rug

Whether simple or bold, a rug instantly makes a room feel warm and complete.

4. Decorative Pillows

Colorful, textured, or playful — pillows elevate your bed or sofa instantly.

5. A Unique Table Lamp

Something eye-catching: a donut lamp, Japanese lantern, or Akari-inspired piece.

6. Aesthetic Shelving

Showcase books, small décor pieces, plants, and collectibles.

7. Minimal or Vintage Furniture

Choose pieces that complement the vibe — warm wood, simple lines, or retro touches.

8. Plants (Real or Faux)

Plants bring color, freshness, and life to your room.

9. Accent Pieces

Like plush characters, sculptural objects, or room-themed décor items.

10. A Color Theme

Neutrals, warm tones, black & white, or colorful — choose a palette and stick to it.
