Use the beautiful textures of natural materials to bring unexpected detail and tactile interest to the home. Team wood or stone in a rustic, original state with finely polished versions to add contrast. Opt for natural fibres such as sea grass and jute in accessories and furnishings including mirrors, footstools, or even an impressive four-poster bed. Natural materials give an earthy, grounding sense to a room and in the hands of skilled artisans, raw elements are elevated into chic objects of desire.
