Cielo: Texture Takeover: Interiors That Invite Your Touch
If there’s one design trend currently making waves across stylish South African homes, it’s the rise of tactile textures. From raw timbers to plush velvets and woven natural fibres, today’s interiors are defined not just by how they look, but by how they feel. Be inspired with Cielo.
At Cielo, texture is a sensory experience.
Whether it’s buttery soft full-grain leather, intricately woven rattan, or the raw authenticity of reclaimed wood, every piece invites touch and encourages a deeper connection between people and their living spaces.
Tactility provides additional warmth and dimension, especially in open-plan living where visual cohesion can sometimes feel a bit sterile. Products like the Zale Handmade Ottoman, with its spiral jute and cotton weave, add grounding texture and artisanal character to any area. Meanwhile, an item like the Sendai Wall Art, constructed from solid reclaimed pine, transforms your walls into a tactile showcase of craftsmanship.
Textiles like bouclé also form part of this trend, as seen in the stunning Prague Armchair.
You’ll find similar appeal in the popcorn knit of the inviting Trix Throw, which adds a layer of comfort and visual softness to living rooms or bedrooms. Bonus points for the winter warmth it offers, too. Ceramic finishes and fluted surfaces also offer standout tactility with their varied textures.
Why the shift towards tactile design?
It speaks to a craving for authenticity and a return to nature, especially in a digitally dominant world. Texture makes a space feel more lived-in, more human. And for South Africans who appreciate a blend of global design with earthy, local aesthetics, it’s a match made in design heaven.
Cielo’s design philosophy is simple: create beautiful, functional pieces that speak to the senses. In the era of textured living, it’s time to literally get in touch with your space. Visit www.cielo.co.za to discover a curated collection that redefines comfort and style, one texture at a time.
