In connection with the current tendency to appeal to styles in interior design Art Deco and Art Nouveau, which originated in the 20th century, the use of leather as a finishing material gained extraordinary popularity. The chic and luxury in the interior are again at the height of fashion. Moreover, it should be noted that the use of leather is by no means limited to upholstery. Now it can even be used for walls, ceilings and floors, as well as for individual elements in the interior to create spectacular decorative motifs.

Upholstery with leather is the most traditional way of using this decorative material. Furniture is upholstered both with natural material and artificial. Usually with leather upholstery sofas, armchairs, chair seats, beds, stools and pouffes. Such furniture in the interior always looks spectacular and gives a special nobility and elegance.

At the same time, the style can be absolutely any and even the most unexpected. Today, a pattern or embroidery is made on the skin, it is decorated with beads, rhinestones, wooden or metal elements or fur - the fantasies of designers are not limited. In addition, the skin can be embossed, varnished, perforated, it can consist of strips and braids with seams to the outside, and to give a fashionable antique look, upholstered furniture is decorated with nails with hats of large sizes.

Now this beautiful material is used for decoration countertops, legs of dining tables, for decorating dressers, cabinets, side tables, doors, chairs - yes for anything, even leather refrigerators and leather bookshelves.

At the same time, exclusively high-quality matter is used for these purposes (natural patinated or waxed skin with a special impregnation that protects it from moisture). The methods of using the skin are different: objects can be with full leather fit, and only some of their sections can be decorated. In general, leather goes well with various materials, such as natural wood, glass and chromed metal.

Quite often today, designers turn to the reception of leather and wall and ceiling finishes. For this, there are even leather wallpapers and leather tiles, although not yet in any store, but interest in this material is growing rapidly.

Fragments of natural and artificial leather can also be combined.

However, it is always worth remembering that smoking in such rooms is strictly prohibited, because the skin perfectly absorbs all odors. The leather floor is not suitable for hallways, for kitchens and children's rooms, i.e. for areas with active exploitation, as leather is an expensive material.
Also, leather mats with the most original structure are often used in interiors, for example, in the form of sheared suede or twisted and woven ribbons and cords or simply as a smooth surface. By the way, combined carpets made of leather and fur are unusually spectacular.
