best size for sofa throw pillows

[DonovanFitz]

Hello there! That's a great question, as the right pillow size can really elevate the look of your couch. The best size for your throw pillows really depends on the size and style of your sofa. It's all about getting the proportions right!

For a regular, standard-sized sofa, 20x20 inch and 22x22 inch square pillows are usually the perfect fit. They are substantial enough to make an impact without looking too small. If you have a larger or deeper sofa, you can go even bigger with 22x22 inch or 24x24 inch pillows to ensure they look balanced and don't get lost.

On the flip side, if you're decorating a smaller sofa, a settee, or a couch with a low back, it's better to scale down. Sizes like 17x17, 18x18, or 20x20 inches will look more appropriate and won't overwhelm the smaller frame of the furniture.

For sectional sofas, you have a bit more room to play, but popular sizes that work well are 18x18, 20x20, and 22x22 inches. You can also mix in lumbar pillows, which for a standard sofa are typically around 11 to 14 inches high and 19 to 20 inches wide.
