These Textures Are The Most Stylish To Have In Your Home
When decorating a home, we often ask ourselves "what elements should be our key focus to making our space really feel like a cohesive home?" And to answer this, we are here to tell you that while each part plays a role in forming your home into a haven you enjoy for its function, comfort and appeal, creating balance, interest and an overall ambiance is essential to fully achieve a space that feels as charming as it appears. And what is the best way to go about this? A simple answer – by incorporating varying textures into your design. Our surroundings are a strong influence on our emotions, especially one's that we are consistently existing within. Colors, patterns and textures affect our moods with their ability to entice our senses. Styling a space with textural home decor makes for an environment that is warm and dimensional, and is a great way to assure your home is complete in every aspect. If you're wondering how and why you should add texture into your home, follow along, as we breakdown what to expect and what you will gain when adding various textures into your space, as well as which textures are the most stylish to have in your home. Why You Should Add Texture To Your Living Space As mentioned, the way our home is adorned can often alter the way we feel, specifically as a result of what elements are prevalent within our space. Texture is quite an important feature to implement into your design plan, as it can further provoke particular emotions within a room and take the look of an entire space to elevated heights. It not only changes the way a room feels, but alters how it visually appears, inviting a sense of comfort and multi-dimension. For example, layering wood and terracotta together can incite a rustic and earthy touch, that generates a relaxing and cozy aura, benefiting your emotions in positive ways. When it comes to designing a home, often times texture can be overlooked, as other elements like wall colors and color palettes tend to be the main focus, since they involve tremendous decision making. However, designing your home and layering with copious textures, whether that be with a throw rug, accessories or furniture, is essential to bringing new life and character to the room, and to avoid the space seeming dull or flat. Deciding which textures can be immense, as there are so many options to choose from, fortunately, we have narrowed a few of the trendiest to feature within your home. Which Textures Are Trending Within Interior Design? Personalizing your decor is an individual journey, as you want to fuse your interests and identity into your aesthetic. You may want to locate pieces that are aligned with your home decor goals or choose objects that fill a specific purpose within your space. While this may be the case, it can also be a helpful head start to designate what textures are the most prominent and trending within interior design. With countless textures and textiles circling within the design world, a few standout when it comes to applying visual texture into your home, including travertine, marble, wood, and boucle, as they create depth, warmth and focal interest, and can easily be found in a variety of decor options. Follow along as we ponder these favored elements to include in your space. Let's Talk Travertine So, what is travertine? While we have dived deep into the trend of travertine, we'd like to break down a few key attributes as to why this material is here to stay. Travertine is a type of natural limestone, formed by mineral deposits made from hot springs. Typically, it is found in rusty-brown, cream and tan hues with a fibrous or porous appearance. The appeal of travertine is its subtle earthy-tones and soft speckled texture, as well as its ability to be long-lasting and resilient to extreme damage and strong weather conditions. As travertine ascends in popularity, it can be found in tremendous and minuscule designs, such as kitchen or bathroom flooring or modern coffee tables and accent pieces. Whichever form travertine takes, it invites a rigid, yet elegant touch of texture in a way that is not as traditional as marble or granite. Marble Is A Must Let's uncover everything about marble! Marble is a metamorphic rock that is the result of the metamorphosis of many rocks undergoing various pressure and heat changes, including calcite, limestone, dolomite and serpentine. These metamorphic changes creates a significant appearance of distinct veining and rich pockets of contrasting hues. It is well sought-after, as marble has the ability to enhance a space with timeless luxury and has durability unlike many other materials. Known for its classic look of white and grey, marble can also be found in non-traditional, vibrant colors that will add an eccentric pop of color to your home. Since marble is profoundly and inherently luxurious and textural, styling a space with marble comes easy, as it has the ability to transform the room in the blink of an eye. See our Elevated Collection and Livella Marble Collection to find those special pieces to enhance your home. Wondering About Wood? From oak and mahogany to redwood and cedar, wood is a material that is commonly featured in many homes as it never goes out of style. With a substantial shift towards adding organic elements inspired by Nature within the home, also known as Biophilic design, and maintaining a down-to-earth atmosphere, wood furnishings are often sustainably crafted pieces that can easily exist within any abode and have consistently remained relevant over time. Versatility and resilience are key features that surround the significance of decorating with wood decor, since it can be located in a variety of shades, tints, and styles, and is long-lasting and needs hardly any aftercare or maintenance. Wood tends to carry more visual weight among other elements and generates a more rustic and organic feeling, mainly due to the variations of wood that can be found throughout Nature. Bring A Touch Of Boucle Stemming from the French term "boucle" meaning to "loop" or "curl", boucle fabric is the result of looped yarn, also known as boucle yarn, being woven into a single fabric. The fabric is produced from looped yarn of at least two strands, being spiraled together to create a loose yarn effect, appearing rugged and fleece-like. Boucle fabric is notably known to be crafted from wool, however, it now exists in an assortment of forms such as linen, silk, polyester, and cotton. From afar, boucle constructs a harmonious texture that is gentle on the eyes, and up close, has a unique looped quality that is soft to the touch. Boucle, well-known for its ivory and cream color scheme and durable qualities, is an instant and effortless way to add texture into a space, functioning well within any decor style. Due to the adaptability of boucle fabric, you can find this brilliant textile in a surplus of forms, from sofas and accent chairs to pillows and throws. Textured furniture specifically is on the rise, as it is often the first item you see upon entering a room and provides immediate depth to the space, so adding a boucle sofa or accent chair is the most common way this fabric is seen throughout homes. Subtle Ways To Add Texture Committing to major decor pieces, like furniture and rugs, may not of interest to you at the current moment, however this doesn't necessarily mean that you cannot add textural elements to your space in an impactful and easy way. Statement objects like coffee tables and sofas inspire an eye-catching focal point, but sourcing pieces that incorporate your preferred materials are just as beneficial, as they can be easily moved around your home and will be purposeful within any room. Candle holders crafted from luxurious marble or vases sculpted with terracotta can assist in creating the eye-catching depth you are aiming for. Intricate details make a difference when it comes to adding texture, so try not to exclude embracing texture within your accent pieces. With this in mind, experience the beauty of artful objects with our range of textured elements to include in your home. Texture's ability to transform a space from ordinary to extraordinary is reasoning as to why it is essential to apply specific elements to your home. When we have the opportunity to reflect on particular shapes and structures, we are transcended to a place that offers excitement and intrigue, as well as comfort and tranquility. A fundamental idea to keep on top of mind while layering various textures and textiles is to stray from going overboard when mixing different materials. Try to decorate with 2 to 3 different textures within your home, as too much texture can appear overwhelming and evade from the balance you are looking for. With styling a home comes many lessons of trial and error, but here at Bellari Home, we aim to provide you with insight on the upcoming trends to help inspire you to make the best decisions for you and your home.

Another year has quickly passed us by. Another year of love and light, and most importantly, growth and change. As 2022 closely comes to an end, we wanted to take the time to thank all of our amazing customers and community for supporting us throughout this entire year. We have grown so much as a team and a brand, and could not have done it without you and your support! While we reflect on all of the exciting things that have happened, and will be coming soon in the upcoming year, we wanted to deep dive into the home decor styles and concepts that will be trending in 2023 to prepare you for what to expect out of the future interior design trends. As you know, we love to stay up-to-date with home decor trends so we can curate and bring to you the best stylish pieces to fill your home with. So whether you're new homeowners looking for some style inspiration, looking to update your home within the coming year, or even need help getting inspired, here's what to expect for next year's home decor trends! Neutrals Although neutrals have been a reoccurring trend over the last few years, this style is absolutely here to stay! Neutral colors can easily be implemented into any home designs, whether it be modern, contemporary or minimalism. With bright muted colors like warm taupe or light beige, there is no doubt that this style is a top interior design trend and will remain one for as long as possible, since it is so versatile, simple, and easy to find. Apply these natural colors into your coffee tables, accent pieces, side chairs and rugs to create a solidified, cohesive and elegant look. Use paintings and wall art with neutral backgrounds and color schemes if you're looking to decorate with larger statement pieces. The possibilities for a neutral home are truly endless, so don't be afraid to get creative and have fun when designing your space! Create the neutral home of your dreams with our Valentina Ringlet Vase Collection, Livella Marble Table Collection, The Kiss Canvas and Il Giro Stacking Vase, exceptional pieces that add life and warmth to any room they are placed in. We also have an extraordinary range of neutral pieces to choose from online, so be sure to check out the Bellari Home website to see what we have available! Moody and Dramatic Despite neutral colors, such as creme, white and sand, being go-to color themes for the new year, moody and dramatic colors are also making a comeback! The gothic style is going to be a popular interior design trend with darker muted shades at the forefront of decor. Black and various deep shades, like dark purple and dark green, are going to be center stage in room and furniture designs. You will see this in the usage of moody accessories, such as table decor like candleholders and sculptures, and in wall art, like canvas paintings and photography. These darker shades will also be featured in larger styling moments such as wall paint, wallpaper, and furniture. While we have a surplus of neutral pieces to choose from, we also have an extensive range of dark, muted items that will look exceptional within a gothic styled home, or if you are looking to add pops of deeper shades. If you want to add some bold, moody accents into your living space, see our Testa Sculpture, Ebony Candlelabras, and our In the Dark Canvas, all in stock and available for purchase. Natural Elements Of the many trends that we will be seeing in 2023, a big trend to make way into the home is an homage to nature and the natural world. Organic materials, like wood, stones, and plants, are going to be major style focal points within the home, as it creates a relaxing environment. This will be reflected in statement furniture pieces, such as coffee tables, side tables and arm chairs, made from wood materials, like pine and oak. Warm earthy tones, such as rich neutrals, browns and greens, will be seen in home furnishings and decor accessories. Overall, natural materials will be an appealing theme filling spaces for next year, as nature creates a refreshing and balanced mood. Accomplish this natural look with our Amare Accent Chair, Marbella Beech Coffee Table, and Handmade Paper Mache Bowls Set. Monochromatic Colors While the monochromatic trend has always been apart of interior design, this style is definitely not going anywhere in the upcoming year. The monochromatic look is considered to be one of the simpler trends, as all it takes is finding that perfect shade to fill your house with. You'll absolutely want to find a shade that you are passionate about, since it will be one that is predominant within your space. However, the monochromatic look is also being achieved through styling with mixture of a few colors. Typically, monochromatic trends are known to feature a singular hue throughout the home, nonetheless, this look can also be achieved by combining a couple different shades and implementing them in various objects within your home. For example, if you are looking for a more neutral monochromatic look, try finding cream, beige or brown items to create a cohesive design. See our Loretta Vases, Crystal Candles, Descanso Marble Taper Holders, and Marble Chains, if you desire a neutral monochromatic home! Lots of Texture As soft, minimalistic interior trends have made way in the last year, layering and mixing lots of different textures throughout the house is a shift we will be seeing for interior design trends. Textures that were popularized within the last year, such as bouclé, concrete and wood, are going to be sought after and layered to add depth and interest into the home. Pieces, like coffee tables made from wood or travertine, and couches made with bouclé, are great examples of what will be prominently featured. Adding multiple textures creates a warming and dimensional ambiance within your house, in addition to building character. See our Bellari Sofa, Tuscan Vessel, Luna Vessel, Tierra Vessel, Goddess Sculpture and Sorento Sculpture, if you are interested in adding multiple textures within your home design. Organic Shapes While refined pieces with clean lines are popular within interior design trends, organic shapes will equally be on the rise. This means, unique pieces with more curves and raw, imperfect figures, while still maintaining a sophisticated appeal, are going to be staple accents within the home. Irregular edges, curved furniture, arched shelves, and asymmetrical pieces are major elements in this interior design trend. This can range from circular rugs, couches and coffee tables to vases and sculptures with soft, natural shapes and an organic feel, basically anything that mimics the irregularity and complexities of nature. If you're looking to fill your space with organic shapes, check out our Venezia Vase, Stone Links and Sorrento Sculptures. Art Deco While this trend has certainly been revisited many times throughout the past, Art Deco has renewed interest in interior design for 2023. Inspired by the glamour of the 1920's, this bold and visually invigorating trend features symmetry, mixed patterns, hard lines, and expressive decor to create a glamorous, yet modern appeal. Create a contrast with contemporary art or add visual interest with unique, artistic objects into your space. Gold and bold marble pieces are used to produce a creative influence in any room. As a whole, Art Deco is an exuberant, avant-garde trend that invites a sense of character and luxury within the home. If you're feeling inspired by this style, you'll find our Coppia Sculptures, Seduction Canvas, and Athena Marble Bust to be artful additions to your home. Touches of Luxury Luxurious homes and having an elevated living space will be a design essential and theme for many homeowners. While luxury is often thought of as beautiful gold or silver pieces and various glamorous elements, the luxe appeal that will be trending in 2023 will be the curation of sophisticated, tailored and classic pieces that are well-thought out with clean lines, and invite warmth and refinement into the home. These touches of luxury will range depending on the style of your home and your own personal style. It can be from adding in lavish pieces like vases and pillars to keeping your home as minimal as possible. The goal of adding touches of luxury into the home is by taking a dignified approach to decorating. Pieces like our Crystal Candles, Blanca Vessel and Marble Tray, are a wonderful way to add those touches of luxury into your interior design. Bold Stones Statement marble is going to be in next year! Aside from traditional marble that we're used to seeing in the original white color scheme, which will still be a major part of interior decor, colorful marble and bold marble accent pieces will be a trendy home design to look out for. Marble can be added to the home in large amounts, like kitchen countertops or in flooring, or can be added in simpler ways, with decor pieces like bowls, candleholders and even coffee tables. Using marble adds a touch of brightness, while maintaining all-around luxury. Adding marble to your home? Check out our Livella Marble Table Collection, Marble Footed Bowl, Marble Key/Ring Bowl, Descanso Marble Taper Holders Set, and Marble Chains! With just a few decor trends mentioned above, there are many styles that will be on the rise as we shift into the new year. While decor trends are a fun way to get started on interior decorating, also remember that your home is your sanctuary and designing with your personal style and perspective can also be a great way to create the home of your dreams. Styling a home allows you to be creative in your own right so keep this in mind when your choosing what best suits you and your home.
