How do you style a room with a blue sofa?

One way to do it is this warm, inviting farmhouse-inspired living room filled with art, furniture, decorative objects and more. A soft, generous blue sofa with a cosy rounded shape stands at its heart. This room might be full of things but it still feels elegant and calm. Sticking to traditional-style furniture and going for a restrained colour palette – blue, grey, white and black – help keep the look together.
