How to make an interior warm for winter - no renovation

In winter an interior "cools down" not because the temperature drops, but because the light goes flat and the existing fabrics stop working. A warm home is built in layers.

1. A heavier curtain in the living room

Light linen curtains, perfect in summer, lose their point in winter. Swap them for denser linen or cotton at ≥ 230 g/m². Warm light stays in the room instead of escaping through the glass.

2. A natural-fibre throw

Cotton, linen, wool. Two layers on the bed - one light, one heavy - are enough for the bedroom to "dress" for the season.

3. Cushions in three sizes

Three sizes and two fabrics - a rule we keep in 90% of projects. A mix of linen and wool-blend cotton gives a well-organised mess.

4. A natural-fibre rug

Wool, jute, sisal. Something that physically warms the floor. Polyester imitations are the exact opposite.

5. Lamps closer to the body

Not a textile, but it works alongside them. Low, warm (2700 K) light sources + a natural shade = a room that says "sit down".

All of this fits into one afternoon. If you'd like someone to lay it out for you coherently - drop us a line.
