How To Style a Darker Sofa

Having a darker colored sofa in your living space may really darken up the area but also be complimented by lighter accents you have, whether that be pillows or other decor. Dark sofas can also make a statement and be a focus point in your room. You may notice the design and color of the sofa more than you do with a lighter one, just because of how much it may stand out. Here are a few tips on how to style your darker colored sofa. 

Add Pillows With a Pop of Color and Texture

Its neutral color will compliment your darker colored sofa while adding a lighter element that has the beautiful texture of velvet.
