Sofas are stepping into the spotlight, with RJ Living’s Sunlit Forms collection leading the way. The designs pair gentle patterns and calming tones with coastal-luxe comfort—the kind you’ll want to sink into after a long day.

Why stripes work in the living room

Stripes make a living room feel more interesting, especially on a sofa. They break up plain colours with a pattern that looks fresh but not too bold, while keeping the vibe calm and relaxed.

Best of all, neutral-coloured stripes pair easily with other materials like wood, stone, and various textures, so they work well with almost any decorating style.

Beyond the sofa

While the Sidney sofa is the main attraction, the Sunlit Forms collection brings the coastal-luxe look to other rooms, too.

In the bedroom, the Compass and Weave beds feature shapes suggestive of rope, creating a relaxed, beachy vibe. 

In living areas, the curves of the Toto coffee table, the simple shape of the Breeze shelving, and the wavy look of the Tide sideboard all convey the calm, coastal atmosphere.

A trend with staying power

Stripes have long been a staple in home decorating, but the latest trend involves intentionally mixing different textures and patterns. Using stripes on sofas and chairs marks a shift from plain, pared-back decorating to styles that feel calm yet full of personality.
