Chubby design
Chubby design is the new furnishing trend that’s all the rage
In a world where the pace is increasingly hectic and stressful, the home has become our refuge, a welcoming place where we can recover a little between chores. Chubby design meets this specific need, creating the ideal atmosphere to unplug and take a break from your day-to-day routine: the sinuous silhouettes and rounded contours that distinguish this furnishing style in fact convey a sense of calm and well-being, smoothing out the stresses of everyday life. But let’s not digress: here’s how to furnish your chubby style home!
What exactly is chubby design?
As its name suggests, chubby design or squishy design is nothing more than a “soft” design approach, distinguished by:
- rounded shapes: say goodbye to sharp edges and straight lines, and hello to sinuous furniture and objects;
- welcoming materials: soft and tactile fabrics, such as velvet and wool, play the starring role, together with all natural materials;
- pastel colours: gentle hues such as powder pink, sky blue and butter yellow adorn walls and accessories, making way for brighter colours for a touch of joy;
- playful details: fun and unusual accessories and decorations, for instance cloud-shaped lamps or animal-like cushions, add a touch of character.
Chubby design in interior furnishings
With the right accessories and a little creativity, every single corner of your home can tell a comfortable and carefree tale. Here are the accessories you should choose!
- Sofas and seats: for the living room, opt for a generously curved, padded and “fluffy” sofa. Remember that armchairs and chairs should encourage you to relax, so always pick models with curved armrests and backrests.
- Tables: how about fitting a round table in your dining room? If you enjoy having friends over frequently, then bear in mind that in addition to being attractive, Scavolini tables are also extensible.
- Accessories: cushions are a key feature of chubby design. Mix different shapes and colours for a playful look, without forgetting about a soft rug for a warm landing as you stand up from the sofa.
- Lighting: light candles and spherical lamps to create soft and welcoming lighting.
- Decorations: place decorative objects which reflect the spirit of chubby design, need ideas? Make room for special vases, mirrors with undulating frames and small colourful and chubby ornaments.
