Understanding Pillow Textures

Textures in decorative pillow covers can range from soft linens to rich velvets. They add depth and dimension to any room, contributing to a layered look that invites touch and visual interest. For example, the Starburst Pillow Cover in North Blue/Blue from Peter Dunham Textiles adds a subtle tactile pattern that catches the eye.

Where to Start with Textures

1. Consider the Room's Functionality:
In high-traffic areas like the living room, robust textures that can withstand frequent use are ideal. A mix of durable materials with a few soft, more delicate pillows can add luxury without sacrificing practicality.

2. Play with Contrast:
Mixing textures such as the smooth surface of the Valencia Floral Designer Pillow Cover | Teal Linen Pillow against a chunky knit throw pillow creates visual intrigue and a cozy atmosphere.
