Decorating a space and renovating it is not exactly an easy task, especially when we have to combine colors, so it ends up being a challenging task, even so, there are decorations that can give us a great help, as is the case with decorative cushions for living rooms, armchairs and for the floor.

Some rooms in the home, such as the living room, are spaces where one can let one’s imagination run wild, achieving the best designs. In the same way that earrings make a difference in a woman, cushions make a difference in these spaces.
Tones similar to the color of the armchair
They are ideal to increase the prominence of any style of room, since they are perfect to add interest to our room. By using similar tones, we don’t take too many risks, and we know in advance that they will look great.

Another way of not taking risks is to use cushions in the same tones as the armchair, and add one or two in another color, as we see above, where gray has been used as the predominant color, and small touches of yellow.
Pastel colors, being pale, complement very well with neutral tones.

Patterns can also help us add a little more interest.

Combinations of various colors appear, with some print. These allow to open a larger range of colors in the room.
We can play with complementary or contrasting colors with respect to those that predominate in the area to be decorated. We can also be daring with decorative cushions with motifs, colors and shapes that attract attention.
Textured or patterned
That same idea can be enhanced by adding different textures to the cushions, as in this case, where the white cushion has a very elaborate weave, complemented by fringes.

Earth tones and pastels combined generally work perfectly.
