Compliment Your Beautiful Sofa At Home With These Ideas

Sofas are dubbed as the centrepiece of the living room for a reason. Just like how a king’s splendour is amplified when he holds court over his subjects, so too does the sofa stand out because of the complimentary furniture it is placed with. The style, size and material of a sofa can complement or disrupt the ambiance of a room, hence it’s important to carefully consider how you wish to style your living room and choose the appropriate furniture that fits your needs. Before choosing a sofa, it’s best to check what factors you need to take into consideration such as size, frame type and material. Once you’ve identified the style of your ‘centrepiece’, it’s time to draft out your home décor ideas for your living room!

Research has shown that different colours can change the mood of a room, so don’t be afraid to add a splash of colour to your living room with vibrant hued ottomans and poufs such as the Media Stool or Chimo Pouf. If the colour combination for your living room leans more towards a darker colour palette, then the Raul Pouf will lend an air of sophistication to the room with its subtle gold stainless steel base. Figuring out how to mix and match your sofas, chairs and poufs? It’s totally based on your liking, so go ahead and play around with colours to achieve the look you have outlined in your ideas or simply to complement your living room sofa.

You can also opt for ottomans and poufs that can double as coffee tables and extra storage space such as the Alicia, Arsenal and Treasure. Ottomans aren’t just useful as extra seating, they’re an excellent spot for propping your legs up on and may even help you with your blood circulation. Plus, there’s just no denying that poufs and ottomans are comfortable too. When planning your home décor ideas for your living room, you can’t go wrong by incorporating comfy, classy, practical and space-saving options such as ottomans and poufs.

However, if space constraints are an issue and you prefer smaller decorative items for your living room, several cushions artfully placed across your sofa should do the trick as well. Statement cushions or cushions in a fun print such as the Kite in Orange/Brown or Prism in Orange/Blue will spice up a plain coloured sofa while plain cushions will help give your living room a sense of cohesion as it can be in the colour palette that best fits in with the rest of the existing decorative items. No matter the pattern or style you pick, cushions are a sure-fire way to add cosy vibes into your space.

While we’re on the subject of getting cosy in the living room, why not factor in a coffee table or side table that complements your sofa into your living room ideas? A coffee table really completes the set up with a proper surface for you or future guests to place their belongings or snacks on while catching up with each other. A terrazzo coffee table such as the Terrazzo x Lola – Big or Terrazzo x Ohio coffee table would look lovely when paired with a neutral-coloured sofa and may even impart a certain playful yet nostalgic vibe to your living room. If a more minimalist look is what you’re looking for, then perhaps a ceramic or marble top coffee table such as Molten Coffee Table or Hancho Coffee Table will pull the look together. Alternatively, a light wood coffee table like the Moore Coffee Table helps you achieve the much coveted Scandinavian look and can blend easily with any colour combination you’ve chosen for your living room.

While it may seem that all you need to complete your living room is a reliable and comfortable sofa, adding an accent chair or two to your space can really pull everything together. Accent chairs, also known as lounge chairs, are the perfect pieces of furniture to create a cosy ambiance while still giving your living room the styling chops it needs to impress. You can opt for a lounge chair in a matching colourway and material as your sofa for a cohesive style or play it up with bolder, brighter colours for some added contrast. There’s no hard and fast rule about how to mix and match your sofas and chairs, so go ahead and play around with the colours and arrangement until you find your ideal set up. Let your sofa work in tandem with the accent chairs of your choice to create the oasis of cosiness you deserve.
