Scatter Cushions - Stylish Or Pointless?

Posted on - 7th May 2021

There are many things across our lives that mean we have to choose between style and practicality, like excessively high heels, hooded coats that aren't actually waterproof and bubble top tables. Are scatter cushions one of those things? Should they have been dropped from style decades ago, or do they have a place in your home?

Stylish Choice

Above everything else, scatter cushions can add to the style of your room. Whether it's your sofa or your bed, they can take one block of colour and add some design and depth to the space. It is also a great way to tie your furniture together or to the colour of your room.
With our living rooms, on average we keep our sofas for a minimum of 10 years, in the meantime, we can redecorate our room around them any number of times. Using scatter cushions can help you to bring your sofa in line with any decoration that you might change in the room.

Minimalist Not By Design

When we think of a minimalist home, scatter cushions are surely not in the picture. While in most cases this is true. But did you know that scatter cushions can help you to enhance the appearance of an otherwise minimalist room?
Minimalist living rooms usually only display the necessities, with some even having hiding places for the TV when it's not in use. They are usually decorated in one simple colour, but why not add a statement dash of colour by means of a cushion or two. Simple one colour cushions can help enhance the minimalism around the room while adding a splash of personality to the space.

Added Comfort

Scatter cushions have always previously been moved to the side when it comes to sitting down on the sofa or snuggling into an armchair. But why not make the most out of them by investing in soft and comfortable cushions. This can help turn even the most uncomfortable of sofas into a nice place to sit. We have all see the sofas that look fabulously stylish but aren't great when it comes to sitting on them, our range of cushions can help you to combine style with comfort.

Adding Personality

As trends change and personalities adapt, scatter cushions are a quick and easy way to adapt the feel of a room. You can even change them to suit the season!
