Top tips for layering fabrics
Stay True to You
We all love a trend. But the fact is that they’re rarely timeless. That’s why adapting the trend to suit your style is important. Your taste will never let you down, even as trends continuously evolve.
When you are choosing your fabrics, one of the most important factors is the type of look and feel you want to create. After all, you want to use fabrics that suit your personality. Consider the texture, colour, size and balance of all elements in a space’
says Amanda.
Start with a vision of what style you want to accomplish and work from there to considerately pair textures and colours to execute the look. Stay focused on your intention as this will help you pare down to only the most essential pieces.
As Ally explains: ‘When designing a space, you have a visual message that you personally want to convey. How each element (such as rugs, furniture, curtains, cushions) is put together will tell the story! Be mindful of your existing furniture and how you can amplify its effect through layering.
Playing with Colour
