Power of Plush: Fall Interiors Are All About Texture

Touchable Textures

Subtle ways to integrate tactile decorative touches this season.

Continuing the September Edit…

September is a story of texture. As the temperatures slowly dip the design story turns tactile. Texture becomes the language of warmth, inviting touch and layering comfort into everyday spaces. It’s the difference between a home that looks beautiful and one that feels alive with seasonal energy.

I love to layer materials this time of year. A cashmere throw draped across a linen bedspread. A boucle chair set against a smooth lacquered desk. Velvet pillows paired with nubby wool rugs.

Each surface offers a different sensory experience, creating richness without excess.

It’s not about filling a room with more—it’s about introducing variety. A well-placed texture draws you in, asks you to linger, and makes even the most minimal palette feel multidimensional.

When the air cools, these extra layers of touch are not just fluff — they are essential. Blankets, pillows and textured accessories add warmth, depth, and that ineffable sense of comfort that defines fall living.
