Looking for living rooms with blue couches that give you more to try than white pillows? Think mustard accents, floral prints and even green walls.
These pictures include pale blue sectionals, deep navy sofas and a few alternative seating palettes worth borrowing from.
You can keep things simple or go all out with patterns. Start with your favorite shade of blue, then pick the little details you love.
A striped pillow or a colorful picture might be all you want to change.
Blue Couch Living Room Ideas to Save
navy and cream curves
We’re starting off strong with this gorgeous navy couch and cream accent chair. I love the round mirror above the sofa, especially with the curved lamp reaching across it.
Try pale pillows and a low, rounded coffee table for a similar look. Keep a little room for plants beside the window.
pale blue and striped pillows
How pretty is this pale blue sofa? The blue-and-white stripes look so sweet beside the little floral prints.
Its rolled arms and long skirt are lovely details too.

Pair two striped pillows with two floral ones if you want to follow this arrangement.
mustard curtains and collected frames
I am obsessed with this blue couch and mustard curtain combination. There’s so much to love here, from the patterned pillows to the green bookcase tucked into the corner.
If you want to try the gallery wall, mix small pictures with an oval mirror rather than choosing matching frames for everything.
blue sectional and exposed beams
If you love blue-and-white decor, this room gives you plenty to work with. The large blue sectional has floral pillows, a pale throw and a little white lumbar pillow.
My favorite detail is the blue-and-white vase on the broad coffee table. Try leafy branches in yours to bring some green into the arrangement.

tufted blue and golden yellow
This tufted couch may just be one of my favorites here. I love the curled arms and the little studs tracing their edges.
The golden-yellow pillow looks gorgeous behind the larger cream one. You don’t need to cover the whole sofa with pillows to borrow this combination.
navy with mustard accents
Want to carry one accent color around the room? This mustard chair, golden pillow and blue-and-gold artwork show a pretty way to do it.
The dark blue chaise sofa has a glossy finish, with a pale fringed throw draped across one end. I’d keep that light detail if you’re trying a similarly dark couch.
turquoise and colorful stripes
How cute is this sunroom seating area? The turquoise sectional is surrounded by colorful patterns, with orange throws and a round mustard pillow mixed in.
Try striped pillows alongside a busier rug if you like this look. That little round pouf is a lovely extra seat beside the couch.
blue and brown sofas
Don’t want matching couches? No problem!
This room pairs a straight-armed blue sofa with a brown rolled-arm one, with a pink patterned rug stretching beneath both.
I love the pink pillows on opposite sides of the room. Repeating one pillow color is a simple detail to borrow when your sofas are different.
powder blue and peach
If you are looking for something light and simple, this one is for you. The powder-blue sectional looks so pretty with peach pillows and a pale throw.
The white coffee table and sunburst mirror keep the rest of the room light too. I’d stick with those pale accents for this look.
green walls and yellow pillows
I love this blue sectional against the muted green walls. The yellow pillows are such a cute addition, especially beside the colorful print above the sofa.
Try a small round coffee table if you want to leave more of your patterned rug showing.
orange and blue color board
This one is a color board rather than a room with a blue couch. The sofa shown is orange, with blue lamps, a patterned pillow and a glossy blue side table around it.

Love the pairing? For your own blue sofa, you could reverse the idea with an orange throw or a small orange cabinet.
navy and a floral rug
This mood board has such a pretty mix of dark blue, green and brown. I am especially drawn to the floral rug beneath the navy sofa.
The rounded coffee table and arched mirror are worth saving too. Try an olive-green accent chair if you want another color without reaching for something bright.
pink and mint accents
The couch here is charcoal gray rather than blue, but the pink-and-mint pillow arrangement is still worth a look. How cute are those little floral prints?
If you want to adapt this for a blue couch, try the same pale pink throw and mint pillows. Keep the botanical pictures for another touch of those colors.
blue patterns and tall curtains
If you’re looking for lots of pattern without lots of different colors, this one is for you. The light blue couch has navy-and-cream pillows plus a patterned throw hanging over the front.
I love the tall white curtains beside it. For a smaller change, try a blue patterned vase on your coffee table.
navy couch and botanical prints
This gallery wall is so pretty above the tufted navy sofa. The large dark leaf print sits beside smaller floral pictures, with a coral flower adding a little extra color.

You can keep the couch itself simple here. One floral pillow is enough to follow the arrangement shown.
blue chairs and a cream sofa
Here’s another seating variation: the sofa is cream, while the two armchairs bring in the deep blue. I love the blue floral pillow between the plain ones.
If you already have a blue couch, you could turn this pairing around with cream chairs. The pale patterned rug would work with either arrangement.
blue chaise and olive green
Don’t want a patterned rug? This mood board gives you a different option with a large olive-green rug beneath a low blue chaise sofa.
The brown cabinets and round hanging light are lovely beside it. I’d keep the blue-and-cream artwork too if you’re putting together a similar palette.
stripes dots and flowers
OMG, how fun is this striped sofa? The coral dotted pillows and bright yellow cushions look so cute against the dark blue wall.
There’s even a little floral pillow to echo the colorful picture above. If you want to go all out with patterns, this is a gorgeous place to start.
navy sectional and ocean art
I am obsessed with this navy sectional and its blue-and-white pillows. The stripes, diamonds and little patterns are all different, but the colors stay similar.
The large ocean picture is my favorite part of the room. Try one oversized print above a console if you’d rather skip a gallery wall.
navy tufting and chandelier sparkle
Last but definitely not least, we have this gorgeous navy sofa beneath a sparkling chandelier. I love the rolled arms and the gold-colored detailing around the edges.
Keep the pillows pale if you want this same look. The reflective coffee table and large cream patterned rug finish the seating area beautifully.
