Designing with Texture: Why Matte, Suede, and Fabric Finishes Are Trending
In 2025, interior design is no longer just about color — it’s about how a surface feels.
From cozy wardrobes to statement kitchens, texture has become the new language of luxury. Designers are choosing finishes that add depth, warmth, and touchable comfort — creating interiors that invite you to experience them, not just look at them.
And that’s where Khidki’s range of textured laminates — matte, suede, and fabric-inspired — comes into play.
1. Why Texture Matters in Modern Interiors
For years, glossy finishes dominated the design scene. But as clients began craving softer, more natural environments, designers shifted to tactile surfaces that reflect light subtly and feel grounded.
Textures bring:
-
Visual depth – They catch light differently, adding richness to minimal spaces.
-
Warmth and comfort – Matte and suede finishes evoke calmness and balance.
-
Practicality – They hide fingerprints and scratches better than high-gloss surfaces.
This makes textured laminates ideal for both residential and commercial applications.
2. The Charm of Matte Finishes
Matte laminates are the most versatile design choice today — minimal yet impactful.
They create a smooth, muted look that complements almost any interior palette.
Use matte laminates for:
-
Bedroom wardrobes and bedside units
-
Modern office furniture
-
Contemporary kitchen shutters
Khidki’s Saket 1mm Matte Laminates are loved by designers for their refined feel and superior stain resistance — perfect for spaces that need durability without glare.
3. The Sophistication of Suede
Suede-finish laminates add a premium tactile layer that feels elegant and luxurious.
They mimic the gentle texture of soft leather, making them ideal for warm, moody interiors.
Design tip: Use suede laminates on wardrobe panels or study units to add subtle richness without going overboard.
Pair them with Khidki Calibrated Plywood for perfect surface bonding and a stable, long-lasting structure.
4. The Natural Appeal of Fabric Textures
Fabric-textured laminates are one of the biggest global design trends this year.
They replicate woven linen, jute, or cotton — giving interiors a handcrafted feel while maintaining the easy maintenance of laminates.
Designers love Khidki Kanvas Liner Laminates for their realistic textile finish — especially inside wardrobes, drawer interiors, and shelving units.
Pro Tip: Combine fabric liners with woodgrain outer laminates for an upscale, coordinated wardrobe design.
5. Layering Textures for a Designer Finish
The secret to a high-end interior lies in contrast and balance. Layering textures — matte with gloss, fabric with suede — creates rhythm and interest.
Try pairing:
-
Matte walnut with suede beige for modern living rooms
-
Fabric liner inside + matte stone outside for wardrobes
-
Suede grey with glossy acrylic for elegant kitchens
This subtle interplay of textures gives furniture a bespoke look — one that feels crafted, not manufactured.
