It would be pretty easy to fill a whole book with thoughts about throw pillows and how they are used/placed on a sofa:
1. Perfectly symmetrical

What school of thought do you subscribe to?
It sort of depends on the room for me, but often I like a pair of big matching pillows on the ends and one or two odd ones in the middle. I usually like to keep it to four pillows per couch. Five is the absolute MAX for me.
What about you?
P.S. Karate chopped, perfectly fluffed, or casually smooshed?
Absolutely love the Phoebe Howard green couch.
I love symmetry. I'd love to do something asymmetrical.. but I know I wouldn't be able to stand it!
I love the look of pillows, but functionally, they just don't work for me with kids. The couches are for sitting on, and jumping off of, and wrestling on with your siblings. Pillows get in the way off all that and get knocked off in 2 seconds flat. I do like how they add color and interest to a room, and they are nice for lounging. My solution is to pile a few in a basket next to the couch – all the color and function without the headache. Putting them back in the basket is a as simple as a quick toss across the room.
haha loved this! mine are usually unintentionally smashed but i like them fluffed…
depends on the house but for me i usually do the 2 matching with another 1-3 randoms

RESOURCE NEEDED! 8th picture down… Where do I get that white coffee table?! I saw it somewhere else and I love love love it.
I can not stand the karate chop! I don't get it. What is the point? I can't wait until that trend goes away. And I am with the other person who wants to move into this post!! Beautiful images. even with the few karate chops.
i'm polarized on this one- i love either perfectly symmetrical and matching or completely and totally mismatched… i think both are lovely! and i'm with you, more than 5 just means there's no room for someone to sit. & casually fluffed.
love your blog! so inspiring :)

*** would love to see a pic of your new baby, bet she is getting big !!!
symmetrical and never a karate chop in sight!
Never mind on the RESOURCE NEEDED! I found it. After much searching using totally vague keywords like "white AND coffee table AND pierced AND design" I found it. It's the Pipa Cocktail Table by Oly Studio and it's SERIOUSLY expensive. So expensive, in fact, that nowhere is the price listed, only "Call For Pricing" which is never a good sign.
