Mix colours, textures and designs


Make your sofa exciting and unique by mixing different colours, textures and designs. Choose complementary colours or create contrast with contrasting shades. Also play with textures, such as soft velvety fabrics, knitted cushions and smooth silk materials. Also dare to experiment with various designs, such as stripes, geometric patterns or floral prints.

Uneven number of cushions


For a balanced and visually appealing result, an uneven number of cushions works best. For example, place three, five or seven cushions on your sofa. This creates a dynamic and harmonious effect.
