Leen Bakker Shares Rich, Colourful and Textured Throw Ideas

Leen Bakker, in a post shared on its Instagram account, outlined six suggestions for bringing more colour into homes for the autumn season. The starting point of the post is the idea that an interior can be brightened without completely changing its existing layout. The company linked the suggestions to its autumn collection and invited followers to explore the collection online or in its stores.

Colour suggestions listed one by one

The first suggestion in the post is to replace neutral-toned decorative cushions with warm colours such as burgundy red, terracotta and dark green. The second suggestion is to add a richly coloured or eye-catching textured throw to give the sofa a different look. The company stressed that a throw can change the appearance of a sofa immediately.

The fourth suggestion is to combine plain accessories with playful patterns and textures to create a more characterful space. The sixth suggestion is that a rug in warm tones or with a striking pattern can transform the look of the entire living room.

The post also asks followers to save the suggestions and share them with acquaintances who may want to add colour to their homes.

A home textiles perspective

For textile manufacturers and wholesalers, the notable point in the post is that the colour transformation is largely built around textile products: cushions, throws and rugs make up half of the suggestions. The company also recommends using plain surfaces together with patterned and textured pieces.

The Netherlands-based Leen Bakker states on its website that it has focused for more than 100 years on a good balance of price and quality and on the latest lifestyle trends. The company says it offers products for a complete living room, bedroom or garden, and that its products can be reached either in its stores or online.
