The best colour cushions for a brown sofa include; earthy tones like rust, terracotta, or mustard, muted cool hues such as light blue, or soft sage, and jewel tones like deep burgundy, emerald green, and sapphire blue.
It's best to avoid using black on dark brown sofas as it creates an overly gloomy and heavy look. Very bright colours like hot pinks and electric blues can also clash with the warm tones of brown. Let’s jump into our top colour cushions for brown couches and sofas.
Use earthy tone cushions on brown sofas for a cohesive look
Earthy tones such as rust, terracotta, or mustard can complement the warmth and richness of a brown sofa to create a look that is inviting and cohesive.
Use a mix of earthy tone cushions in different textures and sizes, and consider mixing some luxury designs to add some visual interest and dimension.
Earthy tones are particularly effective when used in cushions for brown leather couches and sofas, as they help accentuate the leather’s natural texture and organic vibe.
Try cool-toned cushions on brown sofas for a dynamic feel
Transform a living space into an inviting oasis with the subtle yet stylish contrast of cushions in cool blues and soft sage set against the warmth of a rich, brown sofa.
Soft sage is the perfect way to add a modern edge, while muted blues temper any potential harshness of the brown and help bring out its natural beauty.
Check out solid cushions in these colours for a bold statement, or add some class with elegant prints from our linen range that feature these tones. Either way, you'll create an eye-catching and dynamic contrast.
Use jewel-toned cushions on brown sofas for an elegant look
Invite indulgence into your living space and add a touch of luxury by styling your cosy, brown sofa with an array of lush jewel-toned cushions.
Rich jewel tones like deep burgundy, emerald green and sapphire blue are lovely colours to use in cushions for a brown sofa. They can add a bold, dramatic statement and will create a strong focal point in the room.
