SHF: The Humble Ottoman

When you’re looking for added seating that brings comfort and style to your home, a simple ottoman definitely goes the distance! Add a beautifully upholstered ottoman to your living room or find the perfect full-length alternative for the ideal end-of-bed seating. Either way, SHF has you covered with a great selection of ottomans to suit different tastes.

Your choice of ottoman will largely depend on the overall design scheme of your room, but with so many modern choices available, you can truly create a customised space with unique seating to meet your needs. Think plush fabrics in various shades, metal legs or wooden finishes to suit your design needs. Ottomans also come in a variety of shapes and sizes, so you no longer need to be limited to the conventional square varieties. In fact, SHF has a range that includes circular designs, geometric shapes and a variety of sizes and lengths.

Ottomans are truly versatile items and if you’re always in search of extra seating and storage, then these beauties are a must-have in your living room. An ottoman can double as functional seating and storage if you opt for the variety which includes hidden internal storage. This is the ideal spot to store seasonal throws, scatters and other soft furnishings.

Ottomans can also function perfectly well as a coffee or drinks table and a much-needed footrest after a long day at the office. In the bedroom or dressing room, an ottoman is a perfect spot on which to sit while you lace up your shoes and can also double up as a storage solution for your bedding!

Choose a finish that works for you – whether durable leather for a high-end finish or a plush velvet fabric for a more luxurious feel – style your ottoman to suit your needs.
