Richly woven tapestries, curtains, and textile coverings brought warmth, color, and status to the castle. They provided insulation against the cold, absorbed sound, and served as a form of display: visitors could tell from the textiles just how powerful and distinguished the residents were. With <em>Soft!<\/em>, this heritage returns, but in a modern form.
