What’s more welcoming than a couch adorned with cushions in various sizes, colours and textures and a throw? Look out for Mocka’s latest throws in trendy geometrics made from 100% cotton. A budget-friendly trick is to have sumptuous fabrics like velvets, silks and woven cotton only on the front-facing side of cushions to deliver a sense of luxury and get a few extra savings.
3. Maximise your space
Nothing beats a clutter-free, light-filled living room. It’ll suddenly look brand new after a little spring clean. To help you create a greater sense of space, try re-organizing your storage and shelving options. Floating shelves are a great way to display mementos and artwork and don’t take up any floor space. If you want to de-clutter your room, cabinets and bookshelves are a popular and modern option that give ample storage. You don’t have to blow the budget with Mocka’s selection of must-have unique designed cabinets that will set a stylish tone in every home.

Coffee and side tables are an easy and affordable way to incorporate trends into a tired living room and level up your style stakes.
4. Revamp a tired sofa
A cloud-like couch you can sink into after a long day is a major drawcard for any living room. But it does usually cost the big bucks, so you definitely don’t have to upgrade your current one. Slipcovers are an inexpensive way to brighten up a couch and give effortlessly chic vibes. Especially trendy right now are ones in earthy tonal colours and linen fabrics. Or breathe new life into a comfy armchair and re-upholster it with an eye catching-textile. It’s a chance to show your personality and bring pops of colour into your interiors.

Modern, sleek tables work super-hard, delivering extra tabletop space and even storage to your room while also looking chic. With side tables, you’ll never have the essentials like your phone, coffee or glass too far away while you’re relaxing on the couch. Nesting tables are trendy right now and can fit underneath each other for a minimalistic look or spread out for more space when entertaining.
