How to Choose the Perfect Modern Throw Pillows?
Coordinate by Style
If your living space is decorated in a specific interior design style, such as Scandi minimalism, industrial, boho chic, or vintage, try to match the existing vibe of the area.
-
Opt for throw pillows with simple shapes and solid colors, like the Posh Duo Royal Navy Pillow, if you have a modern-style room with clean lines and a minimalistic design.
-
Choose a mid-century modern throw pillow to bring retro elegance to your sofa or bed. You can experiment with the textured pillows such as the Strata Multi Indigo Throw Pillow, to create a stunning presentation.
-
Consider bedroom throw pillows with a farmhouse theme for earthy sophistication, and layer multiple alternatives for a warm and inviting atmosphere.
Texture Concerns
The texture of your items for home decor offers dimension and personality to the overall design. When selecting pillow coverings in monotone colors, texture is significant to consider. Combining different textures in matching shades can let you have unexpected outcomes. Mixing different textures can enhance your decor, for instance, you can combine smooth and fluffy pillows for a cozy look.
Filling Matters
When searching for modern throw pillows, think about the fill and how it will affect the appearance. For example, a Feather Down Insert provides a softer squish. Foam and other synthetic fillers are stiffer and often less expensive. Feather Down Insert makes pillows incredibly soft, giving that cloud-like sensation.
Artistic Paintings & Floral Style Prints
Throw pillows with beautiful paintings and flower designs can be used in your home decor for aesthetic and personal reasons. In addition to boosting your living space's overall look and feel, they let you express your interests, create various moods, and even support artists. For instance, Delicacy Fuschia & Green Throw Pillow has Florals and tropical designs that will bring the nature vibe in. And for traditional geometric prints, you can check our Halifax Black & Cream Throw Pillow will align with many styles.
Monochromatic Color Scheme
Choosing Monochromatic color palettes provides an aura of simplicity and class. Your space looks neat, coordinated, and refined using a single color or different tones of the same color. Selecting pillows with the same color but different textures (such as silky smooth, velvety plush, or nubby linen) highlights the texture. This can enhance your design without excessively distracting with numerous colors. They are a versatile investment because you can use them on multiple backgrounds or with different decor types.
Tips to match the Throw Pillows with other furniture
Choose a color scheme for your pillows.
The secret to creating an organized pillow arrangement is to note three aspects that complement each other and already exist in your space. As inspiration, consider the color of your walls, the patterns on your carpeting, and the details in the artwork on your walls. The colors you select should complement one another and the color of your sofas.
- If you want to look classy and clean, go with cream, beige, and a pop of color like blue, green, or orange.
- Colorful jewel tones such as mustard yellow, eggplant purple, and emerald green provide a rich, luxurious look.
- Choose colors like navy blue, sage green, and blush pink for a beachy, airy vibe.
Choose three different patterns for your pillows.
- Pick three distinct patterns for your pillows to make a pleasant display.
- Combine geometric and organic designs to generate a balanced effect by contrasting harsh lines with curved, abstract shapes.
- Begin with a colorful pattern containing all your preferred colors, whether geometric or organic.
- Choose a second patterned pillow that shares one or two of those colors.
- Finally, complete the look with a third pillow in one of your chosen colors. This method ensures an even yet unique cushion arrangement, adding curiosity without overloading your room with monotony.
Vary the pattern sizes on your cushions.
- Mix large, medium, and small-sized prints to combine your cushions. Your pattern combination must complement rather than distract from one another.
- Work with prints that are large and subtle. Make your largest print on the pillow the focal point, covering your whole color story.
