Ottomans come in a range of shapes and sizes to suit any room and any need. Accent: Ottomans in a variety of shapes and sizes with fun patterns, tufting, and more to help make a statement. These ottomans make excellent décor or footstools. You may see one of these ottomans called a pouf—this is just a small ottoman without legs. Chair-size: Low-profile and designed to add extra seating, these ottomans add visual interest and functionality to any space. Cocktail: Large, statement ottomans that work as a coffee table replacement and add lots of extra seating to a space made for entertaining. Rectangular: Squared-off, longer ottomans with a wider seat, these are sometimes called a bench. These ottomans look great behind a sofa or at the foot of a bed. Round: Curved ottomans that make great footstools or coffee tables while breaking up the often-boxy shapes of living room furniture. Square: Also called a cube, this versatile shape can be small enough to fit in a tight space, or large enough to fill the center of a room. Hexagonal: This trendy shape looks elegant and adds visual interest with its unexpected form.
