“Fashion always leads,” says Sarah Kuchar, owner and creative director of Kuchar Studio, adding that the vintage-inspired textures that are trending in fashion right now are bleeding into interiors. “Texture is only getting more expressive—colored bouclés, colored fringe, reflective surfaces, the resurgence of chrome,” she says.
In this recent project, Kuchar used Venetian plaster and velvet upholstery alongside warm tones to give the space a cozy, layered look. “We’re moving away from copy-and-paste catalog spaces towards something that feels collected and meaningful—and unexpected vintage texture does just that,” Kuchar says.
