How to Heat Indoor Spaces Without Turning On the Heating?

Let in Natural Light

We won't teach you this. Besides its obvious energy, the sun also heats through thermal radiation. On sunny days we don't hesitate to open curtains and blinds to let in natural warmth. Conversely, at night these thermal walls close to retain the accumulated heat as long as possible. This method works differently in summer.

Lay Thick Carpets

Valuable both as a decorative element and for its thermal properties, carpet ranks first among essential accessories to heat the interior without needing radiators. Choosing a thick and plush carpet gives you the chance to reduce heat loss through the floor. This flooring accessory can be placed next to a sofa, under a table or by the bed, avoiding contact with cold floors. A carpet guarantees moments of comfort.

Choose the Right Bedding

To keep a room warm without turning on heating, accumulating suitable and cozy textile items is a big plus. To retain heat while enhancing a cozy atmosphere, we use very warm blankets (fill power around 500 g/m²), choose cotton, flannel and even linen sheets (known for their thermoregulatory properties). Finally, we select duvets that are warm and cozy.

Opt for Throws

When it's cold, we wrap ourselves up. Inside or outside. Wearing fleece clothes at home is possible but investing in a cozy throw makes more sense. Nothing compares to wrapping yourself in a fluffy blanket with a cup of tea. An added bonus? Depending on the material chosen, a throw can be used all year round to refresh your sofa's silhouette.

Light Candles

Even when not lit, scented candles create a soothing and cozy atmosphere. We prefer lighting them to warm up the ambiance. Encountering these decorative items instantly transports us to a kitchen, countryside cottage or fireplace. Wood fire, gingerbread or cinnamon — well-chosen scents create an olfactory décor that truly warms the heart.
