Most importantly we need soft furnishings to make our houses look well-cared for as well as comfortable. Living spaces are an identity of the people occupying them since they reflect their lifestyle, tastes, and character.
Soft furnishings include household textiles and fabrics that are used to enhance the décor such as rugs, throws, bedding, bedroom and bathroom curtains, cushions, quilts, table linens, and even bathroom towels and accessories. It also includes any piece of furniture, from chairs to huge recliners, that is padded with foam and a cloth of your choice.

During London Design week we have visited quite a few design fairs and exhibitions and noticed that a lot of fabric companies are keen on flower pattern. We do not usually use flower patterns in our design, as we are following our natural and minimalistic taste, but this could definitely work for people who love bright colours. You can use flower pattern on wallpapers, upholstery, bed linens or even rugs, but not all of it together.
