Beyond pillows and throws, we also keep the Luxe B Co marble book stand on the table-styling shelf — the kind of small sculptural object that finishes a layered bed or sofa vignette.
Textiles 101
Three rules for mixing pillows and throws.
Pillow arrangements look effortless when they’re working and obviously wrong when they’re not. The trick is mixing scales, textures, and patterns without going symmetrical.
01 — Sofa
Two big, one small, one lumbar
For a standard 3-seat sofa: two of one larger pillow at the corners, one or two contrasting smaller pillows in front, and a lumbar to break the line. More than that feels staged.
02 — Bed
Layer back to front
Sleeping pillows in back, two euro shams, two standards or kings, one lumbar or accent in front. The throw goes folded at the foot, not draped diagonally.
03 — Pattern
One large, one small, one solid
One large-scale pattern, one small-scale pattern, one solid texture (linen, velvet, mohair). Pull a color from each pattern and let it repeat in the throw or rug.

A note on choosing
“Down or down-alternative fill always reads better than polyester — it has weight when you pick it up, and it doesn’t flatten by week three.”

Frequently asked questions
What pillow fill is best — down or down alternative?
Down feels best, holds its shape, and lasts longest, but is not allergen-friendly for everyone. High-quality down alternative (not poly fill) is a strong second. Avoid loose polyester fill — it flattens fast.
How many pillows should I put on a sofa?
For a standard 3-seat sofa, four to five pillows is the sweet spot: two at each corner, one or two smaller in front, and an optional lumbar. More than that feels staged.
How do I mix patterns in pillows without it looking busy?
One large-scale pattern, one small-scale pattern, one solid texture (linen, velvet, mohair). Pull a color from each pattern and let it repeat in the throw or rug.
Do you carry custom-size pillows?
We can source custom inserts and shams to match specific sofa or bed dimensions. Ask in the showroom or on a consultation.
