Bring simple rugged beauty to interiors by introducing natural textures
Gardens, hedgerows and woodlands are rich in inspiration for textured, organic furnishings. Pliable leaves and grasses, sleek cane, gnarled twigs and riven bark all provide contrast and character, and are beautifully adaptable for indoor use. This isn’t about turning your home into an indoor garden, more about incorporating natural elements that help it to breathe – and that reflect the spirit of where they come from. Natural matting, rush-seated chairs, woven-willow footstools and coppiced-wood cabinets all make practical, down-to-earth furnishings, while fabrics made from jute or paper introduce unexpected materials in discreet, subtle weaves. These are timeless features that bring a sense of their raw source with them, their life visible in the grain, their surfaces full of interest.
