Texture o me becomes a place for warmth and retreat after the long hazy days of summer. Tactile, sensory materials engage our senses and bring comfort. As a result Texture becomes a central aspect of the Autumn Retreat story. Chunky, oversized wool knits, along with heavy cottons and rustic linen fabrics make an appearance along with wool felt. For ceramics, texture is expressed through embossing and fine detailing. Grainy, matt and semi-glazed surfaces are important in achieving this refined, rustic look. Colour is often speckled and imperfect. The desire for calming, soothing spaces means surface texture becomes the source of subtle pattern. This replaces excessive prints, to blend seamlessly with our interiors. Organic, imperfect and uneven shapes communicate a natural aesthetic. 14 THE ESSENTIAL COSTA DEL SOL WEBSITE - www.simplymedia-group.com
