How to 'Layer Textures for Effortless Autumnal Style'

As autumn arrives and the days grow shorter, our homes become more than just living spaces, they become sanctuaries. Creating a warm and inviting interior is all about texture, and layering is one of the easiest ways to give your home that cosy, seasonal feel. If you’re looking for autumn home decor ideas, now is the perfect time to introduce rich fabrics, colourful accessories, and thoughtful details that turn a room into a haven.

The art of layering textures in interiors is about balance and depth. Combining soft throws with structured cushions, or pairing velvet curtains with natural wool rugs, instantly transforms a space. This creates a sense of comfort that feels just right for fall and winter. At Pleat, our autumn edit has been designed to help you build stylish, layered interiors that feel warm, elegant, and ready for the colder months.

Start with curtains and blinds. These larger elements anchor your room and provide both function and style. Choose heavier weaves such as our Eco Boucle or Eco Weave, Soft Velvet, or warm-toned fabrics to frame your windows and keep out the chill. This is your foundation layer, which sets the scene for everything to come.

Extras from our collection to enhance the moodiness? Add throws! Nothing says autumn home decor like wool blankets in seasonal colours. Drape them over sofas, armchairs, or beds to create inviting spots for the whole family to enjoy. Mixing patterns and fabrics will give your interiors a curated yet cosy look.

Finish with autumn accessories. A rug underfoot adds insulation and ties your room together, while candles from Pott cast a soft, golden glow. Seasonal flowers from Bloom and Wild echo the beauty of autumn leaves and branches. Small touches like these make your interiors feel layered, lived-in, and welcoming.

Layering textures is more than just a design trend, it’s the secret to creating interiors that feel both luxurious and comforting.
