Revamping your home can be stressful. You have so many choices to make. You must consider layout, theme, and even objects within the home that will speak to your style. But what about texture? Texture is starting to become a huge buzzword in interior design. It’s an essential part of any designer’s vocab—even if you aren’t aware of it—because a design scheme without texture always misses the mark.
It’s also a more intricate process than you think. It’s more than just incorporating a rough-sawn wood texture with a fringed-edge cushion on the opposite side of the room. It’s an art form that may be tactile or not. Check out our examination of mixing textures in furniture and décor below.
There are various beginner home decorating tips out there, but layering is one of the most important. Layering is vital to creating a home full of depth and richness. Blend multiple texture sources without relying on furniture finishes and fabric, and you’ll find that your result is much more creative than expected. Consider glazed versus matte ornaments on a smooth wooden bookcase or book spines stacked alongside a glass lamp on top of a granite fireplace. This is just a single example, but know that every ounce of your room can be an opportunity to incorporate texture and make your room feel more three-dimensional overall.
Interesting textures provide balance and aesthetics when you contrast them. Your color palette likely contains similar shades since you usually don’t want to layer too much color and risk overwhelming the senses. You can use textures to bring in more variety without changing the hues you have. Don’t be afraid to alter the fabrics in your room. This proves that color and pattern aren’t the only means of differentiating the elements in a room. Look beyond just altering sofas and armchairs, and try to hang up different textures through lampshades, curtains, and blinds. You can even switch these according to the seasons. This makes the art of mixing textures in décor and furniture easier.
Typically, furniture is the first thing people explore regarding layering texture. We recommend doing this last, but you should prioritize it at some point. Choose a smooth marble table while eating off a rustic oak dining table. Finally, you might choose an elegant velvet sofa that’ll fit the bill. If you do this, you’ll be well on your way to a rich and exquisite interior.
