Contemporary look

Symmetrical is a natural look for a more modern or minimalist style that doesn't draw too much attention to itself. Instead of putting a throw at the edge of a couch, fold it neatly and put it in the middle. Place Furniture so that it is at right angles to other pieces. It could be put right in the middle of a couch, or using the golden ratio, it could be about 2/3 the length of the couch. 

Farmhouse Style 

A "bunched" or "messy" blanket look goes well with an eclectic style. But a sloppy-looking blanket is more of a feature in and of itself, so the pillows should go somewhere else. Farmhouse style also likes cozy, so a clumped-up look is welcoming and feels like home, making it a great fit for this style.


Things to keep in mind when draping a throw in your living room

  • How blankets and pillows are arranged affects how people use your space. When blankets and pillows are perfectly folded and styled, people tend to feel less welcome and will sit on the edge. Guests will feel more welcome in a space where things aren't as "perfect" or symmetrical. Even just putting a blanket on the diagonal makes a room feel warmer.
  • If your living room has a couch and two chairs, which is pretty typical, putting a blanket on each one might be too much. Keep things in balance by putting a throw on the couch, one on a chair, and a throw pillow on the other chair.
  • The way you show off or store your throws is a mix of form and function. Of course, you can put a throw right on a couch or chair. If you have more than one throw blanket, you can store them in a basket or a piece of furniture with storage space. A wall ladder is another option, especially if your blanket is nice enough to show off.
