If furniture plays the role of an independent element of decor, then you should choose a product of bright juicy shades. To combine the color of the ottoman with the tone of the room, you should pay attention to the shades of the bedspread and floor covering, or originally beat the colors of the furniture with the color of the floor lamp, table lamp or chair.
• If the bedroom is decorated in light and warm colors, a ottoman in white or beige color will suit the style. Milky colors give the room an atmosphere of peace and tranquility.

• Using a pouf with a drawer saves space and frees up space from unnecessary things. When choosing a pouf with a place to store things, you should pay attention to the ratio of the dimensions of the product and the size of the room.
• Compliance with the harmony of colors with the style of the bedroom plays an important role. The main selection criterion is the combination of shade with the texture of the upholstery.
