Fall 2017 Decor Trend: Textural Intrigue

Posted by Tori Radday on Aug 29th 2017

Hello! There has been a recent increase in the use of a variety of textures in interior design to create visually refreshing, cozier aesthetics in the home for the fall season. There's less of an emphasis on color as shape and texture take its place. No one particular texture leads this trend; instead texture as a whole becomes the focus. Cork, terracotta, woven textures, wood, galvanized metal, embossed textures, etc. all work well for bringing this trend into your home. The key is selecting several different textures to play against each other. 

Choose a variety of textures that complement as well as contrast. Mix and match to your heart's content! This trend is easy to achieve and there's a lot of freedom to experiment and play around with it. Your options for textures are endless- incorporating this trend into your home may mean adding a few woven baskets to every room or layering on knit throws and faux fur pillows on your living room sofa. This trend works well with a variety of different styles so no matter what your design preference is (coastal, farmhouse chic, boho, etc.) you can still have fun with it.
