How do I mix other materials with wood for effective DIY decorating?

Mix materials like soft textiles, natural fibers, ceramics, and greenery with wood to create layered, tactile rooms. Incorporate light woven rugs, linen curtains, and smooth ceramics to contrast wood’s warmth and grain. This blend adds texture and depth without needing paint. The variety breaks up continuous wood tones, making each architectural wood feature like beams or paneling stand out as intentional focal points.
