A modern pouf can highlight your room decor by adding in a unique color, texture, or design. You can tie your modern pouf ottoman to your other decor by connecting the color scheme, even if the colors aren’t identical to one another. Otherwise, you can look at the weave, texture, and layers of the pouf and find similar tones in the other decor, like woven pots, pillows, images in wall art, and so on. When you subtly connect the pouf to the other decor, you highlight each element and make the room feel cohesive.
Modern poufs can function in one of two ways: they can add to the simplicity of the room by subtly contributing to the overarching design, or they can serve as a unique pop of color, pattern, or design--almost like a piece of art. Whatever function you’re looking to fulfill, a modern pouf can fit that mold by being that decorative element while also fitting into a key part of modern design: practicality.
There are many options out there for modern poufs, so when you’re shopping for the one that’s right for you, think through the following areas.
Purpose: A big part of modern interior design is that the decor you include should be functional if possible, and fortunately, a pouf can have many functions! Some may use it purely as decoration, but you can also use it as a modern pouf ottoman where you rest your feet. Other uses include using it as a small table, a spare seat, or some combination of these purposes.
Size, Shape, and Structure: After you determine your modern pouf’s purpose(s), you need to focus on the size, shape, and structure of the pouf. For the size, consider how wide and tall you need it to be to fulfill its purposes. Shape can be determined by what other shapes you include in the room, or if you want to add in a unique shape, this is a good opportunity. Structure is another key element that determines how dense it is, and what purposes it can fulfill. Think of it this way: if you plan on using your pouf as a side table, you definitely want a more firm structure that will hold your items.
Fabric/Material: Fabric not only affects the tone of the pouf, but also its practicality. Poufs are available in many different materials, such as cotton, polyester, and wool. Some materials are easier to clean than others, and depending on where you want your pouf to be, you should choose a material that suits the pouf’s purpose. You can even decorate with a modern pouf outdoors, so if you’re looking for one that can withstand the great outdoors, be sure to search specifically for outdoor poufs.
Pattern: Some modern poufs will come with patterns imprinted into the fabric, while others may use texture and different pile heights to establish the design. When you’re choosing a pattern, find one that has similarities to your other decor, such as similar shapes or lines. The tone of the pattern or weave should match the room’s overarching mood.
Color: Modern interior design tends to use neutral colors like black and white in their design, and you can find poufs in those colors as well! However, contemporary design also relishes the opportunity to add in pops of color in neutral spaces, so consider getting a pouf in another solid color like blue, red, green, or any other hue. There are also modern poufs that use many different colors in its pattern-work, so when you’re shopping for your pouf, focus on the other colors in your room and how the pouf’s colors will add to that scheme and establish the proper tone.
