How to style your sofa with decorative pillows

Decorative pillows: the perfect finishing touch for your sofa, bed, or cozy armchair. With their unique prints and soft fabrics, they truly bring a home to life. Just looking at them is a delight. At Proluca Interiors, you'll find the most beautiful pillows of high-quality from top-end brands such as Proluca Design, Kelly Wearstler, Hermès, Eichholtz, Duran, and more.

Struggling to find the perfect pillows, unsure how to mix and match, or finding it challenging to determine the right colors, patterns, and textures? We're here to offer you some essential tips on styling your furniture beautifully with decorative pillows.

Vary in different pillow sizes
Experiment with the size and shape of the pillows. Place the largest pillows at the back and work forward with smaller pillows for a dynamic and playful effect. Do you prefer square, rectangular, round, or something smaller? Let your creativity run wild and vary with different shapes. Also, pay attention to the size of your sofa. Small pillows can get lost on a large sofa, while smaller sofas may not need overly large pillows. Feel free to experiment!

Play with textures, patterns, and colors
The most fun comes from mixing and matching different patterns, textures, and colors. Do you love color in your home and don't mind patterns and prints? Go ahead! Ensure there is always a cohesive color palette. For example, keep the base pillows in a solid color and then add two or three accent pillows with bold colors, patterns, or textures. This way, you maintain a beautiful balance. If you prefer a tone-on-tone look and are happier with calm earth tones, you're in luck! These colors usually go well with almost any interior. Take a look at our extensive pillow collection from Duran, shop one of the Boucle Eichholtz decorative pillows, or check out one of the cream-colored pillows from Proluca Design. Complete the sofa with a beautiful Loro Piana blanket, et voilà!

Determine the number of required pillows
How do you determine how many decorative pillows you need? You can experiment with this yourself. However, there is a common rule in the interior design world that recommends using odd numbers, such as three or five. Do you have a nice big sofa with different sections? Then go for at least five, six, or seven decorative pillows. Two or three on the sides in the corner and a cute and striking set in the middle. For a smaller sofa, you can choose to style pillows only on both sides.
