Without textiles modern interior just can't do it. It is textiles in the interior that sets the tone and brings colors to the overall design palette of any room.
And if the bedroom has a forged bed, then textiles, curtains and bedspreads for the bedroom are simply irreplaceable in such an interior, because with its help you can create a unique vintage style chic
This will require lace pillowcases and lots of pillows. 
But if you decide to arrange, then the best option may be to match the bed linen, bedspreads and canopy, one color scheme, or style.
For the living room, you can also come up with various options the use of textiles, again, decorate the wall, but not completely, but by decorating it in the form of a picture in a frame (pull the fabric over the frame and hang it on the wall), or in the form of a horizontal rug, also decorated with various things, or embroidered with beads.
This type of textile use in the interior is suitable for rustic-style interiors, or other distinctive ethnic styles.
It all depends on the choice of color and texture of fabrics.
A good option for decor can be an ensemble that combines curtains and furniture upholstery, or rather furniture covers, which can also be made by hand.
So do not underestimate the role of textiles in the interior, because it is with the help of fabric that we can bring any of our ideas to life.
Use even the most extraordinary approaches!
Do not be afraid to mix styles, colors and textures and create your own direction in designer fashion.
Not only curtains on the windows, upholstery on furniture and patterns on pillows decorate the interior. Textiles can do a lot and even challenge the ordinary!
There are unconventional ways to use it in the interior. We will share them below. Go!
Curtains as a door
If you want more free space and light in the apartment - a curtain instead of a door would be a great option.
“Curtains-doors” are suitable for the kitchen, living room, dining room or corridor. For those places where the family spends time together, and there is no need for complete privacy.
Such a solution is a godsend for a nursery. For children, the door is the most traumatic object: they can easily fill the bumps and pinch their fingers! A thick curtain will come to the aid of parents.
Cloth instead of a door in the dressing room - a good option. The bedroom is the kingdom of textiles, therefore, by hanging a curtain in the dressing room, you can:
a) visually enlarge the room by opening a hidden storage system,
b) update the interior (it is easier to hang another curtain than a new door),
d) make the bedroom more comfortable
For such “doors” they use satin, linen, silk, jacquard, cotton. Dense curtain fabrics look expensive and will better protect things from dust.
Lifehack: before going to the store for fabric, be sure to measure the wall along which the dressing room is located: in order for the curtains to lie in beautiful folds, they must be 60-70% wider than the wall.
Curtains as a way of zoning
Curtains can separate the living room and dining room, bedroom and study, without erecting additional structures. The advantages of this design:
saving centimeters that are dear to us in the room: we move or completely remove the curtains if you want more space
experimenting with design: you can change or update the interior simply by changing textiles
we do not suffer with installation - the curtains are easily attached to ordinary cornices
Here it is worth keeping a couple simple rules: to separate zones, one light and transparent fabric is mainly used, the other is dense and dark. To make the room bright - only a light curtain is pushed in, to make the area closed - use a dense fabric.
Lifehack: To install zoning curtains, we use: slats, cornices (plastic or wooden), fasteners, clamps and tiebacks. Place the fastener under the ceiling. Heavy canvases should be hung on large rings with a massive cornice. So the partition will not sag over time.
Heavy fabric can be hung on the ceiling rail. It consists of a solid plate that is attached to the ceiling with a single screw. The tire can be cut to the desired length with a hacksaw.
Textile as wallpaper
By tradition, the walls in the apartment must be painted, plastered or wallpapered. No, it's not bad at all! (except for the newspaper trim before gluing) But how do you like this proposal - just take it and cover the wall with a cloth?
So, we solve several problems at once:
we don’t bother about a single concept of space - you can use one fabric on the walls, in furniture or in decor items (for example, cover a bedside floor lamp or armchair, sofa cushions with the same textiles)
no need to remove small irregularities of the walls - the fabric will hide all the flaws
no worries about noise isolation - the fabric absorbs noise much better wallpaper, and its porous structure retains air and creates additional heat
From natural materials, jacquard, cotton, linen, jute are used, from artificial materials - polyester, viscose, polyacryl.
You can use textiles on the walls around the entire perimeter or use only part of the wall.
Lifehack: p fasten fabric wallpaper can:
- on sticky tape
- wallpaper nails
- furniture stapler (if attached to wood or drywall)
- just pull on slats like stretch ceilings
Textile as a panel
What to do if the pictures on the walls no longer bring joy and your favorite piece of fabric lies in the bins? Make a panel from existing textiles!
The fabric is simply stretched over cardboard or plank right size. These can be compositions of solid colors, geometric compositions of textiles of different textures, or just one panel with a pattern.
Advice: it is desirable that the color and pattern on the panel echoes with pieces of furniture and decor, so that a single style in the interior will be preserved.
Lifehack: e If you don’t go to a cutting and sewing circle, this is not a reason to be upset. Here are a couple of tips for creating a textile panel with your own hands:
cooking old frame or a sheet of thick cardboard or chipboard
we stretch the prepared fabric onto the base, after which we wrap it with reverse side and fix with glue
attach this base to the frame
if there is no frame, take plywood
to front side attach foam rubber or synthetic winterizer
we cover this base with a prepared fabric and fix it on the reverse side
Congratulations, you are now a jack of all trades!
Patchwork carpet
When different pieces of fabric are sewn together into a single piece, a patchwork is obtained.
It is assembled from simple plain pieces of fabric or from multi-colored, geometric, unrelated patterns. Cotton, synthetics and viscose products are popular.
Squares, triangles, stripes, honeycombs - the patches can be of any shape. It all depends on the design vision and interior features.
This rug is perfect for any room. However, do not lay them in places where they can quickly get dirty - in the kitchen or in the corridor. But the living room or bedroom is a great place for patchwork. AT scandinavian style, country, provence, kitsch patchwork design will come in handy.
Lifehack: P When choosing a rug, pay attention to:
- for knitwear, bolognese, materials stylized as burlap
- material density and stretchability
- so that the fabric does not shed
Screen
The screen is a multifunctional item:
great for zoning
serves as a dressing area
able to replace the curtains on the windows
just used as a decorative element
The standard option is three or two doors in a screen. The frame can be anything: wood, metal, plastic. Screens for zoning are often made of dense fabric: jacquard, brocade, tapestry. To make the room look lighter and brighter, you can use light textiles: chiffon, linen, silk.
Lifehack: t The kan is usually fastened with Velcro, laces, buttons. It is desirable that the screen be in the same style as other interior textiles - curtains, tablecloths, bedspreads.
Textiles as a way to hide the excess
Sometimes it seems that the objects standing in plain sight on the shelves create a mess in the interior. But they are dear to the heart and do not want to remove them. What to do?
You can install curtains that replace furniture fronts or hang fabric on glass cabinet doors.
Such fabric drapery is useful in the kitchen. With a slight movement of the hand, we move the curtains and take out the necessary item. This solution is suitable for kitchens small size. To open swing doors, you need a place that is usually not enough, but here we save space and hide kitchen utensils from prying eyes.
In the same way, you can hide cosmetics in the bathroom.
Lifehack: h To save space in the kitchen, you do not need to give up your favorite headset. Even if there is so little space that the installed table does not allow the doors to open, this is not a reason to be upset. We fasten the rail for the cornice to the tabletop, hang a curtain on it, in harmony with the design of the room. To form neat folds, you can hang curtain tape on top. And voila!
We will not stop saying that you can change the interior by starting small. The most insignificant, at first glance, detail is able to update the room. Go through ours, decide, understand which style suits you. And start picking it up slowly.
And live easy!
Textiles in the interior sets the tone and creates a mood. However, in order for it to please its owner for a long time, it must meet not only quality requirements, but also be in trend, that is, comply with fashion trends.
Keep up with the times
Technological progress does not stand still and this applies to all spheres of human activity, including the textile industry. New fabrics, colors and design trends are being created.
According to the new concept of housing, the interior has become a means of self-expression, like clothing. Massive furniture designs and an abundance of accessories were replaced by spatial games and textiles.
But at the same time, manufacturers take into account not only new trends in fashion, design and architecture, but also the preferences of each of social groups, which means that functionality, durability of fabrics and texture come to the fore.
Freedom is most valued today, therefore, in modern world designers' art is not put in a rigid framework, allowing you to give free rein to your imagination. However, one thing remains the same and that concerns discreet elegance, originality and comfort.
And although design trends do not change as quickly as in clothing, today we can safely say that furniture textiles with a checkered pattern, reflecting the style of “grunge” and “military” in the best possible way, are leaving the catwalks of the world market.
It is replaced by companion fabrics, designed in pastel beige tones and diluted with calm ornaments, or interspersed with contrasting elements to match the overall interior. The role of textiles in the interior is growing: often such spots that stand out against the general background are relied on as a kind of semantic accent.
Material used
The classic is still in fashion, but today it is customary to dilute it with a romantic style. The popularity of materials with rustic surfaces, which are based on assorted yarns with interlacing threads such as "panama", "canvas", "gunny" and "piqué", does not fall. An increasing number of buyers are paying attention to nubuck, velor, suede, etc.
Speaking about the design of textiles in the interior, do not forget about the quality of the upholstery. Indeed, not every fabric can be used for the production of furniture covers, but only wear-resistant, resistant to fading, abrasion and pilling.
In addition, it should not stretch both along the lobar and transverse threads. Beautiful textiles in the interior should have all these qualities, which means that you cannot do without synthetics as part of natural fiber.
Use fully natural material impractical, because it is expensive and short-lived, although it can often be found in the interior in the form of curtains, decorative elements, accessories, etc.
However, furniture upholstery made of linen, cotton, silk and others is reinforced with synthetic and polymer fibers, which endow the final product with strength, beauty, and, most importantly, hygiene. These fabrics are completely safe for humans.
About textiles in the interior of the bedroom
The most intimate part of the house, designed for a good rest, is the bedroom. When choosing the design of this room, the goal is to create a calm, peaceful atmosphere.
Textiles play an important role in this, because even one single blanket or carpet can completely transform the design of a room and give it a new mood. The coziness and comfort of your home should come first, which means that preference should be given to soft and warm natural fabrics with soundproofing properties. Wall decoration should be appropriate - high-quality and expensive with a soft and velvety effect.
As for the color, the psychological mood directly depends on it. Light shades are able to calm and relax, green colors will bring a touch of freshness, and blue ones will remind you of the sky and the sea.
The combination of light tones with bright, saturated colors looks very impressive, but you should not abuse it, it is better to focus on one element - for example, a pillow, a picture or curtains.
Bed linen, bedspreads, curtains, carpets and blankets - all such interior decoration with textile elements should be kept in the same stylistic direction and overlap with each other. Bed linen white and beige shades suitable for any interior, but linen with a pattern should be chosen more carefully.
The material for curtains should be dense and not let in light. As a rule, a combination of curtains and tulle is chosen for this room. If desired, the curtain can be pushed back or pinned with a hairpin to add light to the room.
The bed is the main element in the bedroom. Whether to decorate it with a canopy, everyone decides for himself. Such an accessory will look advantageous in classic or mixed styles. A soft headboard will bring even more comfort and warmth to the room.
The bedside ottoman can be decorated with drapery to match the bedspread, as well as the legs of the bed, so that in general they create a whole picture. And if the owners opted for a wrought-iron bed, then they simply cannot do without an abundance of textile elements - lace pillowcases and pillows, because this is the only way to create a unique vintage style chic.
About textiles in the interior of the kitchen
The final stage of decorating any kitchen will be textiles. Today, specialized stores offer a wide selection of all kinds of tablecloths, napkins, pot holders, warmers for teapots, etc. All this is quite affordable and inexpensive, however, if you have a little imagination and free time, you can make textiles in the interior with your own hands. Having picked up the fabric in accordance with the design of the room, sew the potholder, kitchen towel, apron and tablecloth.
It is this part of the house that is often decorated in a rustic style, which welcomes bright multi-colored curtains on the windows, rugs and fabric used in the design of walls and ceilings.
The last idea may not appeal to everyone, because it requires attention and care, but you can also find a good compromise - make paintings from fabric to match the furniture and decorate the wall with them.
It is possible to create a unique and attractive design not only using stylish furniture and accessories. Not the last place in the creation of the surrounding space is the process of decorating. To be more precise, textiles. So, textiles in the interior is one of the leading elements in the process of creating unique design. With its help, the characters and moods of the premises are created, the necessary shades and the degree of their warmth are given. He also draws beautifully general style premises. Next, let's see how to use and combine fabrics in decor.
Material selection
Decorating with fabric allows you to create bright compositions and individuality. Having decided on the need to use them, it is necessary to find out their quality, which mainly depends on the material of manufacture. Let's discuss this point first.
natural fabrics
Textile decoration with natural fabrics has significant advantages - they are environmentally friendly, perfectly washable and antistatic. They are also anti-static. Of the minuses - often and easily crumple, dry for a long time after washing, can shed and sit down, fade in the sun. Monochromatic materials perfectly give out cut flaws.
By production linen, cotton, wool, silk are used. There are exotic materials, such as seaweed.
Natural textiles in the interior will be indispensable in ethnic and eco styles. Vintage elements without them will not look significant either. Although natural materials will go well with any style.
Synthetic materials
Synthetic interior fabrics have an undeniable advantage - they are hypoallergenic. They perfectly keep their shape, are more durable and wear-resistant. Much cheaper than the previous version. Have a smooth smooth surface. Of the minuses - non-breathable material and form static electricity.
Produced from petroleum products, cellulose, gas, coal. In this regard, synthetic textile interior design is more common. Production is large-scale and the basis is more accessible. Mostly synthetics are used for upholstery of upholstered furniture.
mixed fabrics
Textile decoration with mixed fabrics has its advantages. They have absorbed the best of natural and synthetic materials. They rightfully deserve their popularity. For example, polypropylene materials are light and waterproof, lycra materials are elastic, and acrylic materials are cheaper. Mixing the bases gives the best appearance. However, it cannot be without drawbacks. They do not hold dyes well, which is why, when used, they soon lose their saturation or shed.
Perfectly integrated into classic designs or country style. Although mixed interior fabrics will be in demand in almost any design.
window decoration

2. Without additional fabric decoration.
The textile design of the first option is to create an effect through special cutting of canvases, creating layering and luxurious drapery.
When working out the second option, special attention is paid to the quality of the fabric, its color and texture. Material without fixtures and charges occupies the entire space of the window, for example, Japanese curtains.
Textiles in the bedroom
Textiles in the interior of the bedroom is a purely individual topic. Here everything should obey not only the direct purpose and functionality, but also the laws of design. In each case, everything will be individual. For a children's bed, eco-friendly natural fabrics are needed. Older people will have different preferences. The romantic lodge requires its own materials.
Even taking into account the intimacy of the interior of the bedroom, it can be compared in importance to the design of windows. The textile design of the bedroom can be of two types: traditional and in the spirit of minimalism.
