Tactile contrast: placing fine next to coarse

A warm-toned detail of the earth, with a deliberate juxtaposition of coarse and fine textures. A smooth, polished wooden bowl rests on a rough, split-face stone countertop; a finely textured leather stool sits on a coarsely woven jute rug; a piece of finely woven linen hangs in front of a rough rammed earth wall. In each pairing, a coarse background is matched with a fine object, and their colors are almost identical. Avoid: grouping all rough items together, having contrast come from color instead of texture, using smooth industrial materials for contrast, making fine objects too small to show contrast.

一處刻意並置粗細的大地暖調細部。一塊粗糙的劈面石檯面上,放著一件表面被磨得溫潤的木碗;粗編的麻地毯上放著一張皮革表面細膩的矮凳;夯土的粗牆前掛著一片細織的麻布。每一組都是粗的背景配上細的物件,兩者的顏色幾乎相同。避免:把所有粗糙的東西放在一起、讓對比來自顏色而不是質地、使用光滑的工業材料作為對比、讓細的物件過小看不出對比。
