Leather is a classic material that is perfect for any elegant home. Not only does it have a classic feel, it is comfortable, versatile and creates that feeling of luxury and warmth within the home. Depending on who you ask, leather can be seen as more contemporary or more traditional and modern, but it really depends on how it is being used in the home that would really answer that question.

Leather furniture can be classic or contemporary. If going for a more classic look, you want to stick with your dark patina sofas and armchairs perfect for your study or living room.

If you would prefer more contemporary, choose furniture with interesting form and colored leather.

Leather is also great in the family room as well. Kids spill some juice? Simply wipe it off. Leather can also be used as a material for accent walls and flooring!
