The Rise & Rise Of Boucle

Sofas | Kalu Interiors

Did you know that boucle was first introduced in the late 1940’s? A French word translating to “woolen,” it has gained increasing popularity in the field of interior design over the last few years.

With modern minimalistic trends, boucle can elevate your living spaces with its inviting texture whilst maintaining simplistic and neutral colour tones. Given that boucle is a fabric and not a design, there is a case to suggest that it is timeless! Yes trends go in and out of fashion, but boucle has had a popular start to the 2024 season with great demand.

Boucle comes in various forms, with some being fluffier and some being more textured. A good example of these differences can be highlighted when comparing our Nelli Sectional sofa to our Nobel Dining chair. The Nelli features a more fluffy form of boucle which is very soft to the touch and ultra cosy! The Nobel dining chair features a boucle fabric which is a bit more stiff, perfect for dining chairs as it still provided great comfort whilst also being easy to clean due to the fabrics breathability. 

 

Adding texture to your living spaces with boucle fabric is a great way to get a more cosy yet prestigious look out of your interiors!
