Our Stylist Says
This cushion cover from Marimekko adds a vibrant pop of colour to a neutral or minimalist interior, making it an easy way to introduce bold graphic appeal. Its cheerful orange hue pairs well with both contemporary and Scandinavian-inspired schemes, especially when combined with light woods, crisp whites, or muted tones. I love styling it on a neutral sofa or bed to create an eye-catching focal point. Practical tips include mixing it with other patterned cushions for a layered look or using it outdoors on a patio set for a lively, relaxed vibe. Its sharp, modern design ensures it works well in casual, eclectic, or even more pared-back settings.
