Blue sofa beds

How to style a blue sofa bed

Blue is a versatile colour. Here are a few tips on how to decorate a blue sofa bed.

Add natural materials

Pair your blue sofa bed 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 cosy 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 sofa.

Coordinate with colours capturing your style

Express your style by coordinating a blue sofa bed with colours of your choice.

If you want to add a pop of colour to your room with a blue sofa bed, keep the rest of your interior neutral with colours like white, cream or soft grey. Place a blue sofa bed against a light-coloured 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 colours like yellow, pink or green. Complement your blue sofa bed with cushions or wall art in any of these colours.

Different shades of blue

In the IKEA range of blue sofa beds, 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.
