Looking for a unique interior design trend to make your room pop? Interesting and stylish furniture fabrics — combining color and texture — are easy ways to create visual interest. Learn how to use these fabrics to create atmosphere in your home.
Shine
Fabrics with shine or sheen add that hint of glam to any room. Chairs covered with non-crushed velvet will create this look. Grey or light purple pieces reflect this texture well, too. For a more sophisticated, warmer look, consider choosing furniture and accessories in fall colors, like deep red velvet accent pillows.
Pattern
Fabrics with brightly colored patterns can be the focal point of any room. Place an eye-catching, geometric-pattern sofa or a brightly striped chair in an otherwise neutral room to give the space extra personality.
Texture
Texture will make an already distinguished pattern stand out. Embellished throws and textured pillows made of fabrics like taffeta add yet another layer of design to the varied focal points and accessories in your home.
Want to keep a room light? Decorate windows with embellished linens or cottons. These white fabrics ensure that your room looks fresh while still adding the flow of embellished detail. Embossed leather sofas and ottomans are subtle, yet intricate, retaining a regal and classy look that is especially trendy when furnishing home libraries.
Non-traditional Fabrics
Non-traditional fabrics such as canvas and burlap are an increasingly stylish interior design trend. Popular accessories include burlap runners, canvas-covered ottomans and French country grain sack pillows and cushions. These fabrics add a unique addition to your room’s accessories in both texture and color.
Whether you incorporate shine, texture, new patterns or non-traditional materials, furniture fabrics are a simple way to reinvent any space in your home.
