An easy and effective way to instantly update your living room is by replacing or adding throw pillows! It's more inexpensive than swapping out new furniture just to change the look of your space for a new season and can be quite fun to shop around for new pillows of your liking. We spend a lot of time in our living rooms, from lounging on the couch and watching movies with family to catching up with friends while playing board games. If your living room is in need of a little refresh, take these 3 steps below on which types of throw pillows will do the trick and update the look of your living room in a flash.
The first and easiest step to add new pillows into your space is to find a statement pillow (or two). Depending on your design style, the pillow should stand out just enough to create contrast in your home. For example, this geometric statement pillow coordinates well with the color scheme and design style of this living space while creating a bold look. Think of classic patterns for a traditional feel or pick a boho-themed pillow if your home exudes the style.
P.S. It doesn't matter whether you want to create symmetry with the pillows or not to your couch, as long as they pull the room together and complement your space.
A textured look is perfect for the second throw pillow to your couch or armchair because it can add visual interest to the room next to the statement pillow without being too distracting. Stick to neutral shades for this pillow and let the texture – whether tassels, velvet, or another feel do the talking. If your statement pillow features large patterns, choose a textured pillow with smaller details to not take attention away from the statement one.
The last step to tying your throw pillows together and updating the look of your living space is to include a pillow that's simple, yet comfortable. Especially if the other pillows aren't particularly comfortable, make sure the last pillow or two you add are super cushiony and soft, so it'll be the first to grab when taking a nap on the couch. If anything, your last pillow should add more comfort to your space for exceptional lounging time.
