A living trend to fall in love with: Bouclé is now also moving into our living room and is finally turning our own four walls into a real home. Cozy and elegant? Go with bouclé.
When we peek into other homes, stroll through online furniture stores or peek into strange windows on our countless walks, these almost always have a perfect effect on us. So really cozy, stylish and special – and somehow always better than ours. We want that too! Let's think ambitiously and throw ourselves into interior shopping. But when we try to furnish our own home in the same way, we suddenly come up against our limits.
Because: a bed, sofa and cupboard alone do not turn an apartment into a home. Essential pieces of furniture make your own four walls habitable – but not in principle homely. We all had to learn that painfully in recent years, when one or the other of us saw that interior decorators didn't just fall from the sky. Hey, there is a reason behind it that it has its own profession – and it has to be learned just as much as others.
Bouclé combines cosiness with elegance
But what always helps to make yourself comfortable is to look for inspiration. And whoever browses through the current living trends more often will at some point automatically develop a feeling for what distinguishes an apartment from a home. Our current trend offers the first stage: It's about fabric, fabric, fabric! And that really plays a big role when it comes to the feeling of space.
The "bouclé" trend will no longer just flood our wardrobes in 2021, but also our living spaces. Yes, that's right, we already know the term from fashion and especially from Chanel. Bouclé is this pleasant, rough and at the same time cozy material that often adorns coats and jackets. But now our sofas too, after all, we prefer to snuggle up in there.
The cosiest living trend in 2021
Whether chairs, armchairs or carpets – Bouclé manages to combine rusticity with elegance. Especially in modern rooms with a minimalist look or in combination with the still popular metallic furniture, the living trend should provide grounding. The fabric looks coarse and cozy at the same time, because although it looks so noble, it is usually very soft and you can snuggle into it wonderfully. And with it exactly what we need this year!
