Everything matching, symmetric and regular is out of trend right now and we don’t know not only when these things are coming back but even whether they are coming back or not. Matching furniture sets also look outdated, and mixing and matching pieces is important to make your home look stylish, up-to-date and eye-catching. More than that, there are some more advantages of mix and match furniture items.
Why Is It Good To Mix And Match Furniture?
Easy Changes
In case you decide to change something, to switch the style, the colors or something else, mix and match furniture will let you do that seamlessly and gradually without throwing everything out at once.
Modern Refined Look
Carefully chosen, chic and cohesive furniture items create a feeling of a modern curated space, refined and stylish.
Sustainability
Mix and match means that you won’t buy a whole set of furniture, and you can not only buy some pieces but also integrate your old ones, upcycle and renovate something, change some existing items and find new ones thrifted.
Budget-Friendliness
While some of the pieces can be expensive, you can find other ones at flea markets, in your grandma’s home or just renovate something creating a unique and personalized look for not so much money.

How To Mix And Match Living Room Furniture?
Keep The Colors Complementary
If you don’t have a particular color scheme for the room, go for complementary colors consulting the color wheel as such a solution always looks pleasing.
Add Texture
Texture is the main trend in home decor, and the more variety you add, the better. You may go for a leather ouch and boucle chairs, for faux fur, velvet and many other fabrics with texture.
Mismatch The Sofas
If you have two sofas, take them with different shapes, for example, a sectional and a usual couch or loveseat to arrange a cooler sitting zone. If you have matching in shape sofas, choose different colors and fabrics for upholstery but keep them inside your color palette. For instance, these can be velvet and leather of different colors but cohesive looking ones.
Balance The Scale
Don’t mix and match furniture that is too different in size, don’t use tiny poufs or coffee tables with a large sectional. If you don’t have enough space, consider getting fewer items or choosing smaller ones from start.
