The Bean Bag, Reimagined: How Faux Fur Comfort Became a Home Essential

The Bean Bag Has Grown Up and It’s Never Looked Better

Once reserved for messy teen bedrooms and casual hangouts, the bean bag rememeber from childhood has had a serious glow-up. Today, the bean bag is no longer just a squishy seat for kids, it’s a design-forward, comfort-led essential that brings softness, warmth and style to modern interiors.

Here at icon, we’ve reimagined the bean bag as a key piece in the grown-up home. With premium materials, tonal palettes and sculptural shapes, our bean bags are built to be seen (and loved) in every room, from stylish living spaces to serene reading nooks.

Why Faux Fur Bean Bags Work for All Spaces

1. They Bring Visual Warmth & Tactile Luxury
In the world of modern interiors, texture is everything. Icon’s faux fur bean bags add a hit of plush softness to balance sleeker elements like wood, metal or leather. The faux fur finish feels indulgent, but never over the top, making it a perfect middle ground between comfort and luxury.

Whether styled in a minimalist home or a maximalist cocoon, our faux fur bean bags bring balance and a tactile edge.

2. Structured, Styled & Sofa-Approved
Forget the floppy bean bags of the past. icon’s bean bags are engineered for support and designed with grown-up aesthetics in mind. Their sculptural silhouettes, like the Cocoon and Milano, hold their shape while offering that satisfying sink-in comfort.

This means they can sit proudly beside your sofa, under a window, or even in a formal lounge, adding soft furnishings that feel intentional, not juvenile.

3. Made for Multi-Zone Homes

Our homes have changed. Today, we want spaces that are flexible, relaxed and ready for whatever the day throws at us. These bean bags are the perfect solution:

A secondary lounge seat when guests come over
A quiet reading corner in the bedroom
A Netflix-approved chair for your Friday binge watch
A home office retreat when you need a break from the desk

Our bean bags move where you need them without compromising on design.

Where to Style a Faux Fur Bean Bag in Your Home

In the Living Room

Tuck a bean bag beside your main sofa to create a layered, lounge-worthy layout. It softens the space and gives you flexible seating that looks chic, not childish.

In the Bedroom
Create a soft corner for winding down, journaling or reading. Add an Icon throw and a few scatter cushions to complete the cocoon.

In the Home Office

Use it as your 'break-from-the-screen' seat. It gives your workspace a bit of personality (and saves your back from your swivel chair).

In the Guest Room or Spare Corner

A great way to make guests feel welcome — or just give yourself somewhere new to relax.
