Finding Your Perfect Cushions

When shopping for the best cushions to elevate your home, it's essential to consider size, fill, fabric, and how you plan to arrange them. Let's explore the key elements that will help you create a designer-inspired look with cushions that deliver both style and comfort

Cushion Fills

Feather: Feather-filled cushions offer luxurious softness and a relaxed, lived-in aesthetic. They provide exceptional comfort for lounging. The natural give of feather fill creates an effortlessly elegant look that's perfect for creating that cosy, inviting feel in your living room. Simply fluff them up to refresh their shape and maintain their appealing fullness.
Foam: For those seeking a more structured look, foam-filled cushions deliver crisp, tailored definition. They maintain their form beautifully, making them ideal for creating clean style. Foam fill cushions are perfect for achieving a more formal, polished look and provide excellent back support for extended sitting.
Synthetic Fill: Cushions filed with a synthetic material like polyester fibre offer a middle-ground between feather and foam. They’re soft and comfortable, like feather-filled cushions and hold their shape like their foam counterparts.

Cushion Colours, Patterns & Textures

Cushions are the ultimate tool for expressing your personal style in your home. Consider the following to style your space like an interior design pro:

Create visual interest by layering different textures, pair smooth velvet with chunky knits or corduroy, or combine cotton and linen with embroidery.
Mix patterns by pairing small scale designs with larger motifs. Larger prints can be paired with repeated geometric designs, or classic patterns like plaid, stripes, and polka dots.
Pair solid colours with embellishments like buttons, pearls, lace, piping, and boucle.

Styling Your New Cushions

Styling your new cushions to fit into your existing home decor is easy with our quick tips for arranging and creating a cohesive and practical space you’ll love:

Size & Arrangement: Create depth by layering cushions from largest to smallest. Start with cushions around 55-60cm at the back, 50cm cushions in the middle, and finish with smaller 45cm or lumbar cushions at the front. For a balanced sofa arrangement, using odd numbers like three or five cushions creates natural visual flow.
Mixing & Matching: Achieve an intentionally styled look by selecting a cohesive colour palette with varying textures and one statement pattern. Combine structured foam cushions at the back for support with plush feather-filled options at the front for comfort. Layer complementary tones or create drama with contrasting hues that tie back to your existing decor.

FAQs:

How to choose cushions for a living room?

Start by considering the style and colour of your chairs and existing decor. Experiment with different textures, such as velvet or linen, and a mix of sizes and shapes to create a layered, inviting look.

What is the 2 2 1 scatter cushion rule?

The 2-2-1 rule is a simple styling guideline for a three-seater sofa. It involves placing two large cushions on each end, two slightly smaller cushions in front of them, and one feature cushion in the middle to create a balanced, layered arrangement.

Which type of sofa cushion is best?

The best fill depends on your preference. Feather or down cushions are soft, comfortable, and easy to fluff, making them perfect for a relaxed look. Synthetic or foam fills hold their shape well and offer a firmer, more structured feel.

How do I choose the right cushion size?

Standard cushions are typically 50x50cm, which works well for most armchairs. However, mixing sizes (e.g., 60cm, 50cm, and 45cm) adds visual interest and depth. Ensure the cushions are proportional to your sofa's size.

How do I choose a cushion pattern?

Start with a solid base colour that complements your room. Then, layer with a patterned cushion in a similar colour palette. To make it pop, add a third cushion in a contrasting colour or texture to complete the look.
