1.A visual revolution of color and texture

An indigo tie-dyed cotton and Sofa Footstool can instantly brighten up a Nordic-style living room, while a jute woven footstool infuses the wabi-sabi style with a natural touch. The designer suggests choosing styles that are in contrasting colors or the same color family as the main furniture, and creating a sense of layering through color clashes or gradients.

2. Metamorphoses: 72 Transformations from Sofa Footstool to Coffee Table

The round footrest with a tray has become the new favorite among coffee tables. Its golden height of 35-45cm is well-suited for the sofa area. Tests show that a hard footstool with a load capacity of 15 kilograms can stably place coffee machines and decorative items.
