EW: I’ve heard you are a master at pillow arranging. What are your secrets to styling success? CW: I am a pillow fanatic! I always suggest a 2-2-1 ratio. 2 squares of one pattern, then 2 of another pattern, and then 1 rectangle in the center in another. I love to find a pattern that incorporates multiple colors and then pull those other colors for the other pillows. The styling secret is down feather inserts — this is a must!

The periwinkle toile pillows steal the show — even in a bold, contemporary space like this one. Tip: For a similar fabric, check out this blue toile by designer Thomas Paul.

7. Opposites Attract. White-on-periwinkle toile meets David Hicks' geometric La Fiorentina, underlined by a slash of gold? If you'd said this out loud, I would have thought you were crazy, but it's so striking and appropriate here. The solid gold throw grounds the two patterns, and their large scales stand up to the very large scale of the script on the rug.

This couch demonstrates a more subtle leap of faith, one that can work successfully in any home. Add a spot of color by draping a bright throw over the middle of your couch, then add pillows over it as it were part of the couch itself. At first glance, it looks as if the couch has different-color cushions down the center, providing visual dimension and texture.

Consider using only two fabrics for the 2-2-1 arrangement. Here you'll find that the center bolster pillow's toile fabric smartly matches that of the end pillows.

The geometric shapes of these black and white pillows, next to the yellow throw, immediately turn this white sofa — which would have been lost against these very white walls — into a statement piece. Bold geometric shapes continue to be on trend, and this pattern serves as a great foil for the blue and white toile pillows.
