Seasonal Glow-Up: Your Autumn Colour Refresh

Colour is the Quickest Mood-Setter - Here’s How to Use It

You don’t need to paint the walls, buy new furniture, or overhaul your entire space to make your room feel new again. Sometimes, one well-chosen colour is all it takes, especially when it comes wrapped around a beautifully soft, comfort-first bean bag from icon.

Whether you want to bring more calm, more energy, or more richness into your room, a single bean bag in the right shade can anchor your space and transform your mood. Here’s how to refresh your room with just one colour, using only Icon’s most on-trend bean bags.

Cherry Burgundy: For Drama That Doesn’t Shout

Deep, warm and design-forward, Cherry Red adds rich intensity to your room without overwhelming it. It’s the perfect way to cosy up a space and instantly elevate your soft furnishings.

Perfect for: Lounges that need a bold but tasteful focal point
Style with: Blush, cream or brass accents for depth and drama
Try: icon Dalton Recliner Bean Bag in Cherry Burgundy for a grown-up twist on comfort

A quick way to add richness and mood to neutral spaces.

Sage Green: For Calm, Nature-Inspired Vibes

Soft, earthy and endlessly versatile, Sage Green is a go-to for anyone craving more calm. It brings the outside in — ideal for restful corners, zen bedrooms or plant-filled lounges.

Perfect for: Bedrooms, studios or mindful corners
Style with: Terracotta, rattan, soft creams and leafy greens

A single sage green statement piece can shift your space from busy to blissful.

Mocha Cream: For Timeless, Tonal Warmth

Neutral, but never boring. Mocha Cream is that warm-in-winter, fresh-in-summer shade that quietly transforms your space. It pairs with everything but still makes a subtle statement on its own.

Perfect for: Layered neutral spaces or minimalist lounges
Style with: Stone, off-white, soft black, boucle textures

It’s the colour equivalent of a soft whisper- think understated and effortlessly chic.

Denim Blue: For Cool, Calm and Laid-Back Energy

Fresh, clean and eternally cool… Denim Blue is like your favourite pair of jeans. It works with everything and instantly makes your room feel more relaxed and pulled together.

Perfect for: Family spaces, teen rooms or casual living areas
Style with: Muted mustard, light grey, crisp white

Blue tones are proven to reduce stress and this bean bag is the proof you can sit on.

Stone: For Effortless Elegance

Stone isn’t just safe — it’s smart. These soft, pale neutrals create space, light and calm, making them ideal for rooms that feel cluttered or cramped.

Perfect for: Scandinavian-style spaces, minimalist corners
Style with: Black frames, natural wood, monochrome art
Try: icon Dolce Lounger or Kingston Classic Bean Bag in Beige

A quiet statement that goes with everything and makes your space feel fresh.

Pink: For Joy, Play and Personality

Bold and bright or soft and romantic... Pink is the ultimate mood-lifter. It brings a hint of playfulness and creativity, without ever feeling childish (especially when paired with a grown-up silhouette).

Perfect for: Studio flats, creative spaces, bold lounges
Style with: Lilac, tan, warm neutrals or even bright orange
Try: icon Natalia Cord Bean Bag Armchair and Footstool in Dawn Pink

Just one pop of pink can totally lift a neutral room and your spirits.

Chocolate Brown: For Earthy, Retro Revival

Deep, chocolatey tones are everywhere in 2025 — and for good reason. This shade is rich, grounded and full of retro charm, bringing an inviting depth to any room.

Perfect for: Earth-toned spaces, moodier corners, 70s-inspired homes
Style with: Rust, beige, cream or muted green
Try: icon Kingston Cord Classic Bean Bag with the Amara Cord Small Square Footstool in Chocolate Brown

Think of it as colour drenching’s quiet cousin: soft, slow and impossibly stylish.

One Colour Can Do It All

A full room refresh doesn’t have to mean ripping everything out. Just introducing one colour through a bean bag, especially one as comfy, stylish and design-forward as icon’s, can shift your space completely.

So whether you lean towards deep Cherry Burgundy, soft Mocha Cream, bold Bubblegum Pink or earthy Chocolate Brown, the power of colour is in your hands. Or more accurately, in your bean bag.
