Besides adding depth and dimension to a space, texture can add visual interest to the most monotone space. Mixture of materials and layering can keep a room from feeling flat.
Glossy surfaces like polished chrome or wood, shiny marble and smooth leather all in tonal shades paired with tactile weaves like shag, wool or linen and wood will give a room depth and character as well as add accents.
Textiles can be used in a variety of ways within a space including furniture, wall treatments, windows treatments, artwork and accents. Natural fibers are said to be healing for the body and can make a room feel cozy and welcoming.
Textiles can help set the tone of a room with light tones bringing a sense of serenity while colorful textiles can enliven any space.
