Pouf
Poufs and ottomans are some of the most versatile pieces of interior furniture, with multiple uses inside and outside of the home. Poufs are most commonly used within living spaces as fancy footrests or extra seating solutions. However, they can also be used as a kid-friendly modular side table by pairing two larger poufs or ottomans together in your living room with trays on top to function as your side tables.
With a flat top, adding a tray on top of a pouf creates a great table-like counter space and set down spot, perfect for holding books, candles, remotes, table lights and more.
Poufs & Ottomans in Bedroom Design
Outside of the living room poufs and ottomans can also be used in your bedroom design. Try adding a colourful, textured, or playfully patterned pouf ottoman to the end of your bed instead of classic bench seating. This creates an accent piece and sculptural focal point in your space, adding a pop of your style and personality into the room.
Poufs & Ottomans in Activity Room Design
Poufs and ottomans also pair well in children’s activity rooms or media rooms, providing soft moveable playroom seating for all. To style your ottoman for a children’s room or playroom, make a statement with a bolder colour or play with a texture to create a youthful and energising room design.
Go bold and create a statement with an emerald green pouf, keep it classic with a cotton, natural, beige pouffe, or play with textures with a soft sherpa ottoman.

How to match your pouf with your other furniture?
Matching your pouffe to your other furniture can help create a cohesive and harmonious aesthetic in your space. Here are some tips to help you achieve the perfect living room furniture setup with your chosen pouffe:
- Consider the colour scheme: Choose a pouffe that either complements or coordinates with the dominant colours already in your space.
- Pay attention to patterns: If your current furniture features bold patterns, such as stripes or florals, consider selecting a pouffe that either complements or contrasts with those patterns. If your furniture has bold patterns, you might want to choose a solid-coloured pouffe that harmonises with the dominant colour in the pattern.
- Consult the style of your space: If you’re furniture is modern and minimalistic, choose a pouffe that reflects the same aesthetic. On the other hand, if you’re aiming for a more traditional or vintage look, select a pouffe that will create a cohesive visual appeal.
- Coordinate with textures: Take into account the textures of your existing furniture. If you have leather furniture, you might want to consider a leather pouf to match. If your furniture has a variety of textures, you can choose a pouffe that introduces a new texture to the space, creating visual interest.
- Size and shape: Ensure that the pouffe is proportionate to the other seating pieces in the room. If your furniture is bulky, you might want to choose a pouffe with a more substantial size to match. If your furniture has clean lines, a sleek compact, round pouffe might be more suitable.
- Mix and match: Don’t be afraid to mix and match styles and materials. Contrasting elements can create an interesting and visually appealing look. Experiment with different combinations to find a balance that suits your personal style and space.
