28 Eclectic Ottomans & Cubes

What’s a good size for ottomans and footstools?

On a scale of one to 10, how crazy are you about symmetry? The closer you are to 10, the more you’ll want your ottoman to follow the same dimensions (length, height and width) as the rest of your lounge furniture. Even if you don’t fancy an ottoman of the same size as a three-seater sofa, you can opt for two or three ottomans for continued balance and harmony. If, on the other hand, the ottoman is a centrepiece unto itself, then a large and round ottoman will help you create the desired effect.

Ottomans are available in a variety of shapes and sizes. Choose from small to large round, rectangular, square or cube, and oval ottomans to complete your living room’s eclectic decor. For instance, a large upholstered ottoman can add a touch of opulence to your lounge, and a small square ottoman can be the perfect stool for occasional seating. In fact, ottomans that can be easily tucked under coffee tables are a great way to optimise on space and seating options for smaller homes.
