Textiles Remain a Key Interior Element in 2026

Whether it is a home, hotel, office, or commercial space – textiles continue to define atmosphere and comfort. But the way we use them is evolving: becoming softer, more refined, and more intentional.

What will set the tone for the upcoming season?

 

Colors: Warmth, Calm, and Earthy Tones

The color palettes of 2026 reflect a return to nature and inner peace

  • Warm neutrals – sand, caramel, clay, taupe
  • Soft blues and greens – sage, seafoam, smoky navy
  • Accents in rich warm hues – saffron, terracotta, deep wine

These shades bring elegance and balance, ideal for both private interiors and public spaces.

Materials: Sustainability with a Natural Touch

Customers are increasingly seeking fabrics that are eco-conscious, soft to the touch, yet highly durable. Rising in popularity:

  • Recycled and recyclable materials
  • Blended fabrics with a natural look – e.g., linen or cotton-like textures
  • Fire-retardant certified textiles (e.g., EN 1021-1+2) – a top choice in the HORECA sector

Textures & Patterns: Minimalism with Character

2026 favors subtle 3D textures that add depth without overpowering a space. Trending features:

  • Handcrafted woven effects
  • Soft-toned geometric patterns
  • Organic motifs and irregular lines

Matte finishes and light-reactive fabrics that shift in tone throughout the day are also in demand.

 

Where Will Textiles Take Center Stage?

Textiles are no longer just accessories – they define the feel of an entire space. In 2026, key applications include:

  • Upholstery – highly durable, cleanable, and visually striking
  • Curtains and Roman blinds – adding softness and contrast to hard surfaces
  • Acoustic panels with textile finishes – design meets function
  • Public spaces & hotels – fire-retardant, long-lasting, blackout-ready fabrics

 

What Does This Mean for You?

  • Choose fabrics that are not only beautiful but functional.
  • Pay attention to certifications – especially for public-sector projects.
  • Do not fear texture – it is often what makes a fabric truly unique.

Whether you are furnishing a home, hotel room, or modern office – textiles are what bring the space to life.
