Adding texture and depth to our furniture is something that’s always in the back of my mind when I start a project.
I think the key thing is to understand how depth is read visually, through contrast rather than boldness.
Subtle shadows cast by mouldings or routed panels. Natural timber next to a pristine factory sprayed finish. Reeding, fluting, brushing or polishing timber.
It doesn’t have to be a loud statement but the subtle contrasts added to a piece of furniture allow for a sense of depth, consideration and luxury.
That extra little bit of effort counts for so much.
