Soft Furnishings

More about Soft Furnishings

Even with a lush rug and the couch of your dreams there are still a few things you can do to get a room to that ultimate level of congeniality. That’s where these soft furnishings come in!

For instance, we love mid-century modern design, but sometimes those wild forms can be a little lacking in the comfort department. A few throw pillows in a complimentary style (think shiny gold silk with a brilliant scarlet armchair, or an abstract pink and orange pattern on a midnight black leather chaise lounge) and you’ve transformed that visual centrepiece into something you’ll love to cuddle up on. If you have a wooden coffee table from the same era you can soften its looks a bit by draping a neutral-coloured wool throw over it, which has the added bonus of protecting it from any little spills you might have.

The bedroom too can always use a little more cosiness and here you should feel free to let your imagination run wild, because, after all, what better representation is there of who you are than your bedroom? A throw pillow with a favourite starlet or adorable animal on it? That’ll do, and bonus points if you coordinate this art on your bed with the art on your walls; pick up a few matching prints to really nail the theme. Of course, those pillows demand a cozy throw blanket: try something with a tranquil elephant pattern or an illustration from a classic film.
