Texture refers to the properties held and sensations caused by the external surface of objects received through the sense of touch. Texture is sometimes used to describe the feel of non-tactile sensations. Texture can also be termed as a pattern that has been scaled down (especially in case of two dimensional non-tactile textures) where the individual elements that go on to make the pattern are not distinguishable.

Texture may also refer to:

  • Texture (music), a way to vaguely describe the overall sound of a piece of music
  • Texture mapping, the application of a bitmap image to the surface computer 3D models
  • Texture (crystalline), the property of a material's individual crystallites sharing some degree of orientation
  • Soil texture, describes the relative proportion of grain sizes of a soil or any unconsolidated material
  • In cuisine, texture is the feel of food on the tongue and against the teeth. Adjectives include crunchy, soft, sticky, mushy, hard, spongy, airy.
  • In painting, texture is the feel of the canvas based on the paint used and its method of application.
