The most boring room design can be easily saved by adding an element of unusual color that attracts attention. You can play with contrasts or choose a bright, rich shade that emphasizes the sophistication of a classic or pretentious modern interior. Any room will be enlivened by a turquoise sofa, which is simply impossible not to notice. And it doesn’t matter whether they selected it taking into account the general palette and style solution or simply added a “bright spot” to the already finished design of the room - such furniture will look impressive in any case.
Features of turquoise color in the interior
When designing, take into account the following nuances:
- Despite its tenderness, turquoise is a fairly active and even slightly aggressive color, so it requires very careful handling. For example, it is not recommended to overload a room with a sofa of this shade with unnecessary decorative elements.
- Turquoise color is more suitable for sunny rooms with high levels of natural light.
- When using a cool shade of turquoise, it is important that the room does not look too cold, especially if it is done in white.
Sofa design options
There are two design options:
- Modular. It is a truly stylish, comfortable and functional design, consisting of modules that can be rearranged and used separately.
- Folding. It combines beauty and practicality and is considered an indispensable furniture attribute, which is a compact sofa during the day, and a comfortable sleeping bed at night. Folding models may differ in various transformation mechanisms, for example, book, eurobook, click-clack, accordion and others.
Thanks to a certain design option, it is possible to solve various interior problems and compensate for the lack of space, which is especially important in a small room, for example in a one-room apartment or in an apartment such as a studio.
What upholstery material comes in turquoise?
Also an important factor is the sofa upholstery, which is responsible for the quality and service life of upholstered furniture:
- Leather. It is an elite and luxurious upholstery that can be matte, lacquered, wrinkled or embossed.
- Leatherette. Gives the sofa model elasticity, smoothness and gives it a presentable appearance. However, faux leather can fade quickly.
- Eco-leather. It is soft and elastic and can have a different texture with embossing and dressing.
- Fabric. Modern upholstery velor, tapestry, suede textiles, velvet, flock, matting or other fabrics have a huge variety of textures, shade solutions and can be decorated with patterns and prints of any complexity.

Tones, shades and combinations of turquoise color
The sofa design in a deep dark turquoise shade, combined with yellow and mustard shades, will perfectly complement even the smallest room. Also, this color will look no less attractive in combination with soft blue, milky or pastel tones in the interior.
A rich bright turquoise model or cyan-hued products can be safely combined with other colorful elements, for example, in pink, blue, green, red, purple or lilac tones, the main thing is that the colors do not compete, but rather complement each other.

This color scheme creates a particularly harmonious combination with yellow, terracotta, blue, beige, blue, black, white, as well as gold or silver. A gray-turquoise or turquoise-brown two-color combination is considered very impressive and original, in which turquoise opens up in a completely new way.

What to combine a sofa with in the interior
When choosing a color scheme for decorating a room, when a certain piece of furniture has already been chosen, a lot depends on the style, because different directions have their own priorities and traditions. Therefore, color combinations are often in the nature of the design direction in which they are most often used.
Turquoise and white living room with turquoise sofa
The classic combination with white is one of those options that are often used in a marine style, in classicism. Let's use the duet in contemporary and Provence. But if in modern classics it can be a rich color, then in French country such a sofa will seem faded - muted and light.
White is the ideal background for any composition. All bright and non-standard accents always look advantageous on it.

Despite a certain contrast between yellow, orange and azure, such a duet or even a trio can become the main thing in the design. Cold and warm palettes will balance each other, and sunny notes will give the room a cheerful mood. In addition, in combination with sea green, yellow and orange tones are most reminiscent of summer.
Gray and azure
In this case, the interior will turn out to be cool and even austere, so this combination is rarely chosen, and usually only designers handle it skillfully. Here you can use different lighting effects, the play of light and shadow, and decorate the environment with gradient transitions.
Beige and turquoise furnishings
Choosing a beige or even brown palette is always a winning decision. The elegant range of shades is applicable in a wide range of different styles - from traditional nautical to high-tech design.
A sofa in either a light or rich azure tone will attract attention against a neutral and elegant beige background. However, even in combination with brown - a shade of natural solid wood, or even with chocolate, turquoise does not lose its relevance.
Natural and female duets
The use of green in the interior of the living room seems inappropriate to many in combination with a turquoise sofa, but the designers are sure that this is a misconception - it all depends on what details to choose. For example, bright with pastel light green is suitable - an unobtrusive combination, and in combination with curtains, curtains can match the background and the tone of the sofa, you can place accents and achieve balance.
No less original is the duet of sea wave and fuchsia. If pastel pink can still be imagined in the design, then rich pink is a risky decision that is usually made by sole owners of apartments.
Although, even in this case, designers are ready to refute any misconceptions by presenting stylish projects with rose-colored walls, for example, with a metallic sheen and appropriate decor in modern design trends. Such an environment can be quite cool and unfeminine if the choice of curtains is subordinated to a sense of proportion or the laws of composition. After all, curtains can be gray, azure, or even black.
Shapes and sizes of sofas
Basic options for sizes and shapes.
Corner sofa
Currently, it is the most popular and aesthetic interior solution. This design easily fits into both spacious and small rooms, occupying an empty corner space.

Straight
It is distinguished by an incredibly simple geometric shape, due to which it can be used to decorate the design of any room. The straight model fits perfectly along a wall or even in a corner.
Small
Miniature upholstered furniture significantly saves space in the room and, thanks to its compact size, can be placed almost anywhere.

How does a sofa look in different styles?
The turquoise shade can be implemented in almost any style direction. For example, a soft sofa with scuffed wooden legs, surrounded by antique objects and complemented with lace pillows, can bring new colors to a Provence-style interior. In minimalism, a turquoise design with a clear, straight shape and plain upholstery looks especially harmonious. A combination with a gray color would also be appropriate here.

What interior styles is a turquoise sofa suitable for?
It can successfully fit into various interior styles.
For Provence, choose a straight sofa with wooden, or even carved, legs. Decorate it with lace throw pillows, an image of the Eiffel Tower, or a floral pattern on the curtains. To create a sophisticated romantic French style, in addition to turquoise, use milky, light brown shades. The rustic style can also be decorated with upholstered furniture in this range.
A corner sofa in turquoise color is suitable for a modern style or eccentric modern style. In this case, it should become the center of the entire interior composition, so do not use other bright decorative elements that will draw attention to themselves.

Depending on the style of the room, the curtains can be thick, massive, decorated with tassels and fringe, or they can be lighter curtains without unnecessary decoration. A paired chocolate-turquoise combination that fills the atmosphere with warmth and coziness, or a combination with a calm brown tint, looks very advantageous.
- Pillows. A beautiful complementary decor for turquoise will be plain white, gray, black or colored pillows in yellow and pink shades.
- Blankets, bedspread. A truly magical combination is achieved with a soft pink, light coffee and caramel blanket; a blood red and extravagant burgundy blanket looks very impressive.

- Armchair. A sofa decorated with a white or yellow armchair takes on a gentle and slightly romantic look. Combinations with emerald, light green, mint or sky blue armchairs and poufs will also attract attention and will not leave you indifferent.
- Wallpaper. The aqua-colored model will look especially advantageous against the background of neutral beige, gray, white, milky, pearl gray or blue-gray wallpaper. Turquoise also looks quite interesting when there is a green-yellow, green-blue or yellow-blue print on the walls.

Use in different rooms
The most important room where a turquoise sofa would be appropriate is, of course, the living room. Depending on the style of the room and the desired effect, choose different color variations. For harmony, pay attention not only to the shades of furniture, but also to the color of curtains, carpet and other textiles.
