Textiles & Rugs — Interior Design Glossary

Bouclé, linen, kilim, jute — the soft layer of a room carries most of its texture. This pillar defines the textile and rug terms worth knowing before you buy.

Textiles are where organic modern interiors earn their warmth. The fibres (linen, bouclé, jute, rattan), the weaves (kilim, herringbone), and the construction details (slipcover, tufting, skirted furniture) all change how a room feels to sit in. This pillar walks through the textile and rug vocabulary you will see on product pages from Tonic Living, Loloi, and the curated maker shops we cover. If you have ever wondered whether bouclé and tweed are the same thing, start here.
