Velvet is a fabric that just makes a room feel more considered. Soft, tactile and available in a range of rich colours, our velvet bean bag collection has been designed for living rooms and bedrooms that deserve something a bit more than the average. Whether you're after a statement armchair, a round or square footstool or a classic bean bag that doubles as a proper design piece, velvet delivers every time. If you thought bean bags couldn't be luxurious, think again.
Velvet for every space.
Our velvet range covers more shapes and sizes than you might expect. From the velvet classic bean bag for a relaxed living room or bedroom, to the structured velvet armchair for longer sits and reading corners, and the generous velvet sofa for those who want something closer to a proper sofa. There's a kids velvet classic too, making it easy to keep a consistent look throughout the whole home and family.
Pair any velvet bean bag with a velvet square or round footstool to complete the setup, or layer with a luxury faux fur throw for the full effect.
Colour that works hard.
One of the best things about velvet is how well it takes colour. Our velvet bean bags are available in a range of shades, from on-trend olive green and dusty pink to classic black, neutral greys and warmer tones. Velvet has a natural depth that makes colours look richer than they do in other fabrics, so what you see in the room always looks better than expected.
Velvet bean bags in the living room and bedroom.
Velvet works beautifully in both spaces. In the living room, a velvet armchair, sofa or classic bean bag chair alongside your sofa is the kind of addition that makes the whole room feel more styled. In the bedroom, a velvet classic bean bag or armchair adds warmth and texture without taking over, perfect for creating a cosy reading spot. It's one of those fabrics that suits most interior styles, from maximalist to minimal, without needing much else around it.
When choosing your velvet bean bag, think about:
- Shape matters: want something structured for longer sits? Our velvet armchairs and sofas offer proper support. After something more relaxed? A classic bean bag or velvet lounger gives you more flexibility.
- Size matters: consider the space available and how the bean bag will sit in the room. Check individual product dimensions before ordering.
- Style matters: velvet is strictly an indoor fabric, so pair it with our cord or water-resistant collections if you need something for outdoor use too.
- Built tough: all icon bean bags feature double stitching and secure zips to hold their shape through everyday use.
