How to make a sofa look good with throws – from colour to placement

A living room with a beige two-seater sofa and minimal, rustic decor made with natural materials.

As one of the most essential pieces of furniture in a living room, we want our sofa to look its best, so knowing how to make a sofa look good with throws, is a handy hack that could cost you next to nothing. And given that sofa's are more often an investment buy, we're all for increasing their longevity with something as simple as the humble throw.

The best sofas are where most of us start when thinking up living room ideas, as they provide not only an important anchor for the room, but also a place to relax and unwind with family and friends. That said, if you have children, pets or just a never ending ream of visitors, you'll know that your sofa needs to be pretty hard-working too, as forts will be made, fur will be plastered to it and tea, coffee and wine spills will happen.
