As the days get longer and sunshine pours into every room, it feels like the perfect time to shake things up at home. We’re not talking about full-scale renovations or knocking down walls—just small, meaningful updates that make a big impact. One of our favourite ways to do that? Cushion covers.
At Asmi London, we’re big believers in simple swaps that breathe new life into your space without breaking the bank. So if you’re craving a seasonal refresh, here’s how a few well-chosen cushion covers can make your home feel instantly summer-ready.
Why Cushion Covers?
They’re basically the secret weapon of home decor. You don’t need to move furniture or invest in big-ticket pieces—just slip on a new cover, and your space suddenly feels different. Lighter. Brighter. More in tune with the summer vibe.
Think of them as your home’s wardrobe change: easy, affordable, and seriously effective.
1. Bring in Summer Colours
Summer’s all about feel-good colour—think buttery yellows, ocean blues, soft sage, and terracotta. It’s amazing how just a few pops of colour can shift the whole mood of a room.
Our summer collection at Asmi London is full of these warm-weather tones. Whether your style leans modern, rustic, or something in between, we’ve got shades that catch the light just right and bring a fresh, sun-kissed glow to your space.
2. Have Fun with Patterns and Prints
From playful florals to laid-back coastal stripes or bold geometrics, summer is the season to have fun. If your room is mostly neutral, patterned cushion covers are a great way to add personality without overwhelming the space.
Love a more eclectic or boho look? Layer different prints together—it’s a low-risk way to experiment. Our hand-block printed covers are especially great for adding that artisan touch.
3. Switch to Light, Breathable Fabrics
Velvet and wool have had their moment—now it’s time for lighter textures like cotton and linen. Not only do they feel cooler to the touch, but they also look effortlessly breezy and relaxed. Perfect for summer lounging.
All our covers at Asmi London are made with soft, sustainable fabrics that feel just as good as they look. Bonus: they’re ethically made, so you can feel good about every piece you bring into your home.
4. Update More Than Just the Sofa
Cushions aren’t just for the living room. Add them to your bed, reading nook, window seat, or even your outdoor space. A few new covers in the right spot can totally transform a corner—and make you fall in love with your home all over again.
Picture this: a cozy balcony bench with earthy printed cushions, or a bedroom with soft pastel tones that catch the morning light. It’s the little things that make summer feel extra special.
5. Swap Covers, Not Cushions
One of the best parts? You don’t need to buy all-new cushions—just switch out the covers. It’s kinder to your wallet, and to the planet. Our designs come with quality zippers or envelope closures, so changing them out is quick and easy.
You can build a small collection and rotate through the seasons—think of it like capsule dressing for your sofa.
6. Style It Your Way
A few quick styling tips to make your cushions look like they were arranged by a pro:
Go for odd numbers – Groups of 3 or 5 feel more natural and balanced.
Mix sizes – Use a mix of square, lumbar, and larger cushions for visual interest.
Play with textures – Even within light fabrics, try quilted, woven, or embroidered details.
Keep it easy – Summer is about effortless comfort, not perfection. Let the space feel lived-in and loved.
