Soft Furnishings for a Cosy Home
Furniture gives a room structure. Soft furnishings give it comfort. Throws, cushions and rugs soften hard lines and make spaces feel inviting.
Layering Textures
The secret to a cosy room is texture. Combine smooth velvet with fluffy faux fur. Add a knitted or woven piece for contrast. Different textures catch the light in different ways.
Our Soft Furnishings
- Throws – faux fur, sherpa, teddy fleece, waffle and woven designs.
- Cushions – velvet, cotton stitch and tasselled florals.
- Rugs – including a soft Mongolian sheepskin.
- Doorstops and draught excluders – practical and pretty.
Choosing a Colour Palette
Pick two or three colours that appear in your room already. Use the boldest colour sparingly, perhaps on one cushion. Neutrals like cream, grey and blush work well as a base.
Seasonal Swaps
In autumn and winter, bring out heavy throws and velvet cushions. In spring and summer, switch to lighter cotton and woven pieces. It's an easy way to refresh a room through the year.
Pet and Family Friendly
Washable throws protect sofas from paws and spills. Darker colours hide marks better. Removable cushion covers make cleaning simple.
Care
Check each care label. Shake out and plump soft furnishings regularly. Rotate cushions to spread wear.
