Pillows can transform almost any space. As decorative accessories, pillows are probably the most chic and cost-effective investment. So don’t hesitate to experiment with patterns or colors. However, it is not necessary to over-accessorize especially if your sofa is shallow. On the other hand deep-set armchairs with soft pillows can become the focal point of the living room, offering comfortable seating and encouraging conversation and family time.
