This Home Will Make You Want to Plaster Your Walls… and buy linen…

August 14, 2018 · In: Interior design



20 Ways To add Texture To Your Home

One of the key ingredients to a compelling interior is texture.  It’s the one thing that will make or break an interior, no matter what your style.  It adds warmth, a cozy factor, and best of all, a feeling of approachability.  We found these two homes in Sweden that have serious texture going on even though both would be considered modern.  Here’s proof that modern can be very homey!

And these two homes are in fierce competition when it comes to being a winner in texture.  They go about it completely differently, one with textured walls (the very thing that brings terror to so many!) and the other looooads of linen… yet another terror inducing material because sadly most people associate it with ironing… and scratchiness.

But I think you will find that there is neither terror or chores awaiting in these two home… your biggest challenge?  Choosing which one is your favorite.  Clearly I could not choose!

These pieces gifted to us from @jamieyoungco completely took our breath away. 
1. The Tangled knot has a gorgeous movement that is both interesting and exciting!
2. The Marble Bowl is warm, so smooth you can’t help but run your hand over it, and has a subtle veining that is the epitome of quiet luxury!
3. The Hand Blown vases possess everything I love in a vase… repetition, structure, and a beautiful bubble in the glass- each one is unique!

My mom always told me that and somehow I don’t think she was referring to small bedrooms 🤔 but I still think the saying goes here because this guest bedroom is petite but shows that you can create incredible, cozy, and luxurious spaces no matter what size the space is!  @article sent us so many gorgeous furniture pieces but the finishing touches are almost all from @amazonhome !!! Small room? Tiny budget? Ha! I laugh in the face of challenges such as these!!! 👊🏽 we can do great things and the challenge only makes the result all the sweeter!

We did a little experiment to test the power of color. Before the room was dark and sultry and afterwards it’s light and airy. Almost everything else stayed the same! It’s been fun to see it both ways and I STILL can’t decide which is my favorite! I love them both!
