Beautiful! How to Introduce Velvet to Your Living Room

Published at Wednesday, June 05th 2019. by Rachele Dello Russo in Sofas & Couches.

Hi, homeowners! Soft and very 'now', velvet lifts the room while adding attractive textures. Classic designs can be made modern with this touch‐sensitive fabric ‐like a thick Chesterfield sofa that is rearranged in dark blue velvet, or a classic colour light pendant made of soft pink blush velvet. The quality of two Velvet tones when brushed also appends additional intensity to any part.

Lots of comfort with velvet seating

Seating is an easy way to add velvet to your 'living room'. For a natural look, choose a muted sofa and armchair, accented with velvet pillows. Comfort and style: check, check. Velvet helps reduce geometric designs, making it a more attractive place for R & R. But the pieces with velvet suits are more organic, too ‐like an elegant recliner, and accent chairs with Nordic silhouettes.

Use wisely

Have a velvet crush on the go? Try and moderate yourself. One or two statement sheets look much more striking than the living room where each soft piece of furniture is covered with sensitive items. If your place is busy, you might want to avoid a complete three‐piece velvet with matching footwear and accessories ‐it will thin the impact of your existing furniture. A single velvet sofa, a pair of velvet chairs or ottoman will work better ‐it will also create a natural focal point in your 'living room'.

Mix with other textures

Creating contrast into a texture is a great way to introduce velvet. Choose the right tone, but change the cloth. This could involve pairing a dark blue velvet sofa with blue 'cotton' ottoman or adding a pink velvet pillow to your brown leather sofa. Or, save velvet for your accessories: overcrowded wallpaper, velvet curtains, and velvet‐coated lampshades are a subtle way to introduce trends in your space.

Choose colours carefully

The multi‐tonal nature of velvet means that in the end, it can add more than one colour to your room. To make sure you choose the part you like, try and see it under natural or artificial light before you do it. The atmosphere he creates in your 'living room' is also essential. If you are a fan of feminine design, pink velvet and perfect pastel, for a more dramatic look, try dark blue and forest green. If your style is eclectic? The orange velvet and mustard that are burned can be arranged to really stand out, or slightly peeled to feel medieval.
