Homes reflect the personality of their people. And that is why people have started giving so much importance to the home décor right from living room furnishings like sofa sets, tables, and dining chairs to curtains, rugs, and even the cushions of sofa sets.

Geometrical Abstract Fabrics
Geometric Abstract prints for home decor can appeal to young people or people with artistic interests who live in a metropolitan city but they can also be appealing to suburb dwellers who have a taste for a modern and contemporary style of decor.

But what you need are high-energy colors to light up the taste of geometrical abstract decor. These include shades of chili red, sapphire blue, parakeet green, steel gray, and shades of aqua blue.
For a clean and simple look, modern furniture with geometric abstract fabrics would perfectly complement the look of the home decor. And also use intense shades in home interior fabrics as shown in the picture above. Intense shades of pink, red, peach, and blue look simply amazing.

Pin Tucks
Pin tucks are a fold that has been stitched from place to place. And a very thin fold makes it a Pin-tuck. They make such versatile interior fabrics that you can add them to the simplest of the fabric designs and still can look stunning with little or no embellishments.
Pin-tucks have always been the first choice for bed-covers and quilts. And the plethora of shades it is available in makes it more in demand. They can be a perfect choice from table mats to curtains to cushion covers to summer quilts.

Embroidery
For a traditional and contemporary styled home decor, add lots of embroidered fabric to your living room furnishings and bedrooms. The beauty of embroidery still makes us remember the traditional art of our country. One of the best things about embroidered art is you can mix and match different types of embroidery.
India has a rich heritage of so many different cultures and every culture has its own art of embroidery. Phulkari is Punjab-inspired, Chikankari comes from parts of Uttar Pradesh, Bengal has Kantha embroidery and similarly, there are so many other embroideries. And these embroideries are not just for clothing, when blended well with the other home décor, the embroidery art looks so enthralling.
If you are fond of a Bohemian look, Add colorful fabrics with multiple prints to your home décor. Because Bohemian style is all about layering prints and textures and it gives a perfect hip, free-spirited look. Even the blend of traditional and modern prints can be fascinating.
For people with not so much into prints, compliment the solid fabric with printed cushions in vibrant hues. But make sure to compliment the colors well.
Darker yellows can complement maroons. Black solid shade can also be blended with colorful shades of yellow, and blues. Even pairing the rug with cushions of sofa sets can give a colorful look to your home decor.
