2 Easy does it
If you’re not completely sold on the idea of buying larger textured pieces, choose more discrete items such as this vase from Zara Home. Its neutral colouring will fit comfortably into any space, while the detailing makes it an eye-catching addition.

3 Feet up
Kick back after a long day with this charming footstool from Marina Home. Pair it with a dark-coloured upholstered couch, or a bold, block-coloured rug.

4 Sitting cool
Textured pieces don’t have to be loud in colour or design. Consider this Antonio chair by Eco Chic, with its muted, raised pattern and brown leather upholstery. It will add a quiet touch of elegance to your home office or living room.

5 Mix and match
Try mixing geometric shapes with textured fabrics, as seen in this pretty Alvarez Mineral Blue Wool-Blend rug from Crate & Barrel. Place it at the foot of your bed or under your desk to spruce up a well-worn space.
