How to combine textures with modern furniture

-Modern finishes for some class furniture: in contemporary spaces, using walls or floors made of marble or granite are able to provide an atmosphere of neatness, beauty, and class. Another perfect finish is porcelain because it realistically imitates the texture of some materials, such as wood, lose, and cement. These finishes, if they are placed on any of the walls, are sure to help highlight the colors and shapes of the furniture in that space, the ideal for it to happen is that the textures are colored to help highlight the tones and shapes of the furniture. For example, choose a wall finish design that is the protagonist and complement it with smaller scale patterns that break with the shape, sequence or dimension of the main texture.


-Textiles: fabrics bring volume and dynamism; also, they activate comfort and touch. Each decorating element with fabrics helps to stimulate the view and to create original spaces, from the fabrics of the furniture to the appliques in the tables or adornments. There are millions of options for special effects in fabrics that provide volume, sensations, and more vibrant and less static colors; for example, cotton, silk, velvets, cloths, linen, among others. Always bet on the variety of textures while maintaining or contrasting with the range of colors of the space!


-The effect of light: another detail to know is the observation of surfaces versus light. The soft and bright surfaces reflect the light with intensity; the semi-rough ones reflect the light of irregular form, and the rough ones generate leftovers of different intensities. The scale of texture has to be according to the dimensions of the room. Also, if your goal is to create a difference by using textures in your room, always seek all the elements of the room to generate harmony, especially if you add elements with textures. Remember: the designs shouldn’t compete with each other.


It's all about balancing shades of colors, textures, and playing with lights and patterns. Test the textures and furniture in your spaces, and you won’t regret the result.

Textures and colors can accentuate a space. Sometimes we don't realize this, and just one detail is enough to see how well it combines.
