Adding Texture to your Interior

Adding texture to an interior

Adding textures to an interior is a good way of transforming a room or home. It can take a room from feeling bland and ordinary to making it into a unique beautiful space.

Textures can come in a variety of forms such as furniture, artwork, rugs and soft furnishings. Using materials and fabrics throughout the home and layering them upon each other can bring a room to life.

It is the new and improved contemporary version of adding feature walls throughout the home.

How you use texture can alter the feel of a room.

A neutral palate of woods, linens, wool and stone can add warmth to your room, providing a cosy atmosphere.

Whilst using marbles, velvets and chromes in darker colours can take a room and make it feel industrial, sleek and glamourous.

Enhancing a room that feels flat and like something is missing can be transformed easily and it something which you can play around with to create a unique space. A simple start of a neutral palate, deciding on if you want to go with a warm or cool toned room and layering from there with complimentary colours and textures.

We may be biased but antique furniture is full of unique textures and by adding these pieces will ensure that you have a truly added personality to your home. A gorgeous wooden sideboard against an upholstered armchair with a grand piece of artwork commanding the wall all complimenting each other in a harmonious way. To create a sophisticated room full of dimension without plastering an obnoxious wallpaper or colour on the wall in an attempt to add character.
