Textures are an important part of interior designing. It’s a gut instinct of a designer to place some of the bolder ones in statement-worthy areas, while the subtle ones are used to spruce up understated nooks and alcoves. So, what kind of textures should be used in minimalist style home that’s as fashionably understated an interior design theme as they get? Let’s find out:

Concrete is one of those textures that has been stereotyped for industrial style spaces only. However, it’s much more versatile, which is why it would make a great addition in minimal style home interiors. The challenge here is to introduce it as an accent style texture that is used in moderation – possibly in mainstay features such as media walls, statement walls, etc.
2. Elegant marble

Marble has a class of its own. It’s elegant, sophisticated, and would emulate a luxurious aura in minimalistic home interiors. The thing to remember here would be to choose the right marble texture. Carrera marble texture in laminate, tile, and stone format can definitely spruce up any minimal space. It’s neat, clean, and features the perfect amount of panache to make an elegant statement.
3. Simple paint

Simple paint has a way to improving the overall visuals of the space without making it feel like you’ve added anything at all. For a minimalist style home, you can opt for neutral colours of paint such as white, slate, silver-grey, taupe, brown, and more. The paint can easily take up an entire wall and your surroundings will still remain subtly sophisticated.
4. Sleek fabrics

As far as fabrics are concerned, there are two ways you can take. First off, if you want your furniture to blend in with the minimalist ambiance, you can go for neutral coloured leather and fabrics. However, if you want statement furniture, you can go for sleek, bold, and accentuated fabrics such as velvet, jute, and more.
5. Laminates always work
