The Secret to a Luxe Bedroom Look? Cushions That Layer Like a Dream

The Secret to a Luxe Bedroom Look? Cushions That Layer Like a Dream

Your bedroom should be your retreat — a calming, stylish space where you can relax and recharge. In 2025, the Australian design scene is embracing the idea of “everyday luxury”, and one of the simplest (and most affordable) ways to achieve it is through beautifully layered cushions.

Forget complicated renovations or big spending — all you need is a few well-chosen pieces to give your bed that lush, high-end look.


Layering Like a Stylist: The Cushion Formula

You’ve probably seen those dreamy bedrooms in magazines or on Pinterest. The secret? Layers. Here's a simple formula to recreate that plush, pulled-together feel:

1) Start with two Euro cushions (the big square ones) at the back for height and structure

2) Add two standard-sized cushions in a complementary tone or texture

3) Finish with a statement lumbar or round cushion in front to anchor the look

This 2+2+1 method gives you dimension, balance, and a little “wow” factor — without being over the top.


2025’s Trending Tones: Calm, Warm, and Timeless

This year’s bedroom colour palette is all about soft, grounding tones that help you unwind. Think:

1) Muted sage green

2) Warm oat and ivory

3) Dusty rose or soft blush

4) Clay, cinnamon, and terracotta

These shades work beautifully with timber furniture, white linens, and earthy décor — and they're perfect for layering without clashing.


Texture = Instant Luxury

When it comes to creating a luxurious bed, texture is your best friend. Mix and match materials like:

1) Plush velvet for that hotel-style richness

2) Soft boucle or sherpa for comfort and warmth

3) Light linen for breathability and a lived-in elegance

The mix of textures catches the light and gives your bed depth — even if you stick to a neutral colour scheme.


How Many Cushions Is Too Many?

Let’s be honest — we all love a well-styled bed, but no one wants to spend 10 minutes every night removing a mountain of cushions.

Here’s a practical guide:

1) Keep it to 5 or 6 cushions total (including Euros)

2) Use a symmetric layout to keep things clean

3) Choose removable covers so you can change up the look seasonally without replacing everything


Bonus Tip: Styling with Intention

Want your bed to look effortlessly styled — not overdone? Try this:

Choose one “hero” cushion — something with a bold colour, interesting shape, or standout texture — and style everything else around it.

It could be a round boucle cushion in rust, or a lumbar in forest green velvet. That one piece will act as your visual anchor and give your bed a designer finish.
