High-footed pouffes and footstools

Legged poufs are an inconspicuous piece of home furnishings that can, however, clearly enhance the comfort of everyday living. Due to the multitude of forms and colours available, pouffes can be easily integrated into an existing home décor. The key is to choose the right upholstery material, size and shape.

Upholstery materials - what to choose?

Legged pouffes can be made from a variety of fabrics, and choosing the right material depends on the effect we want to achieve in the interior design and how intensively the pouffe will be used.

Structured fabric
This is one of the most popular choices due to its durability and modern look. The fabric with a distinct texture adds character to the interior, and its resistance to abrasion means that a pouffe made of this material will last for many years. An additional advantage is that they are easy to keep clean. This advantage cannot be overestimated for parents with young children.

Velour pouffes
Velour pouffes are synonymous with elegance and luxury. This soft and delicate material is perfect for living rooms decorated in glamour or classic style. Thanks to its sheen, velour reflects light beautifully, giving the impression of cosiness. However, it must be remembered that velour is more susceptible to dirt, so it requires more care.

Velvet fabric
Velvet legged pouffes are a hit in retro or boho inspired arrangements. Velvet, like velour, brings softness and luxury to the interior, but is slightly less shiny. It blends perfectly with wood, brass and other natural materials. If you want to make your interiors more cosy, poufs upholstered in velvet fabric can be a good idea.

Leg colours and pouffes

The poufs are available in a wide range of colours, from muted beiges and greys to intense colours such as bottle green, navy blue or mustard yellow. The choice of colour depends primarily on the style in which the room is decorated. Light, neutral shades work well in minimalist or Scandinavian interiors, while deep, saturated colours are the perfect accent for vintage or glamour rooms.

Equally important is the colour and material of the legs. Puff poufs with wooden legs add warmth to interiors and fit perfectly with Scandinavian or boho style. On the other hand, a pouffe with golden legs will emphasise the modernity and elegance of the interior. This colour, just like other metallic shades (copper or chrome), goes well with velvet or velvet pouffes, emphasising their luxurious character.

Functionality of poufs with legs in the home

Legged poufs have both a decorative and practical function. They can be used as an additional seating area, a footrest and some models offer storage for small items. Thanks to their small size, they are ideal for smaller spaces where every centimetre is worth its weight in gold. They are also easy to move, making it easy to quickly rearrange furniture.

In the living room, a pouffe will serve well as a footrest next to an armchair or sofa, increasing the comfort of use. In the bedroom, it will prove useful next to the dressing table or in the wardrobe. It is also worth considering the juxtaposition of several poufs in different colours and materials - such an arrangement will enliven the interior.
