Blue sleeper sofas

How to style a blue sofa bed

Blue is a versatile color. Here are a few tips on how to decorate a blue sofa bed in your space.

Add natural materials

Pair your blue sleeper sofa with wooden furniture such as a coffee table or a side table. You can also add accessories like a rug in jute or a woven basket in rattan. With such combinations you'll create a relaxing and cozy feeling in the room.

Metallics for a luxurious touch

Blue, especially deeper blue, goes well with metallics like gold and brass. For example, you can place a floor lamp with a gold base next to a blue sofa bed. You can also add accessories like gold-coated candle holders on a coffee table next to the sleeper sofa.

Coordinate with colors capturing your style

Express your style by coordinating a blue futon with colors of your choice.

If you want to add a pop of color to your room with a blue sofa bed, keep the rest of your interior neutral with colors like white, cream or soft grey. Place a blue futon against a light-colored wall and pair it with accessories and furniture in neutral shades.

If you're looking for a more vibrant feeling you can combine blue with colors like yellow, pink or green. Complement your blue sleeper sofa with decorative pillows or wall art.

Different shades of blue

In the IKEA range of blue sleeper sofas, you'll find a variety of blues – each creating a different feeling. With a sofa bed in a dark and deep blue, you can create a sense of moodiness and sophistication in the room. If you want a feeling of tranquillity, a light blue might be a more suitable option. Decide on what ambience you are seeking and pick a shade of blue accordingly.
