Texture in interior design

Add texture to your space in a way that flows and creates an utterly timeless space. Texture in interior design is about creating moments that invite touch within the space, adds warmth and a tactile connection to objects in your home. Ralph Lauren is the master of texture in a space!
1. Layer Pillows…Layering pillows made from different textiles and color schemes is an effortless way to add texture and interest.
2. Mix Materials…Something as small as a metallic lamp can help elevate a space with texture, picture frames come in many variations such as brass, wood, bone, etc.
3. Collect Baskets…Add an unexpected textural element to a wall with a collection of baskets displayed. Handwoven baskets create warmth and a purpose in a home.
4. Consider Rugs….What’s underfoot is important not only for defining spaces and creating a comfortable environment but also for elevating decor. If your space looks unfinished and you have bare wood floors or tile as your base, try adding a rug for a potentially transformative take.
5. Go Big…If you’re the type who isn’t intimidated by switching up your home decor with a risky approach, try using texture in a statement-worthy way such as a chair with a pop of unexpected color and personality. Even as small as an ottoman, side table, or even floor poufs are all options for adding a dose of texture and interest should a full-size chair or other large-scale piece be too overwhelming.
