Why Textured Throw Pillow Covers Instantly Elevate a Room
Textured throw pillow covers are wonderful multitaskers. They’re the unsung heroes of interior design that can elevate any piece of furniture, providing both visual interest and tactile appeal. Instead of opting for a room filled with uniform pillows, consider mixing and matching textures to create a layered look that invites touch and admiration.
How To style Throw Pillows Like an Interior Designer
- Balance with Neutrals: If your aim is to create a cohesive look, begin with neutrally toned pillow covers as your foundation. The Decorative Neutral Earth Toned Pillow Set 3 offers an excellent base palette that can blend seamlessly with various styles.
- Highlight with Color: For a little splash of personality, incorporate pillows with distinct designs or subtle colors. The Chiang Mai Dragon Pillow Cover in Aquamarine embodies a fusion of visual texture and vibrant color perfectly suited for spaces needing just a hint of excitement.
- Size and Proportion: Consider the size of your furniture when selecting pillow sizes. Standard sofas generally suit an 18"-22" pillow size, while larger furniture pieces can handle bigger pillows like those available in the Southlake Pillow Set.
- Layer for Depth: Use a combination of pillow sizes to create depth. Pair larger pillows at the back with medium and smaller pillows in front, such as those found in the Neutral Pillow Combo #3, to build an inviting, multidimensional space.

Throw Pillow FAQs
Q: How often should I change throw pillow covers?
A: Seasonally is a great rhythm for changing pillow covers to keep your space refreshed.
Q: Can textured pillow covers be used outdoors?
A: Yes, but ensure they are made from weather-resistant materials or are specified for indoor/outdoor use, like some options in our collections.
Q: What size throw pillows are best for a sofa?
A: For most sofas, 18” x 18” to 22” x 22” throw pillows work best, depending on the scale of the furniture. Standard-size sofas typically look balanced with 18”–20” pillows, while larger or deeper sofas can comfortably accommodate 22” pillows for a fuller, more layered look. For added depth and designer styling, mix sizes by placing larger pillows in the back and slightly smaller pillows in front.
