Sofa Decor news · 5 November 2026
From the family lounge to the chair on the patio, the spaces we return to every day deserve a little attention. We’re pleased to share another place to explore our range: Sofa Decor is on BIG W Marketplace, with listings sold and shipped by Sofa Decor.
Two products offer very different starting points. Haven brings plain colour and a fine woven look to indoor seating through separate cover pieces. Bondi is an enclosing cover for an individual outdoor chair between uses. Understanding that difference helps you shop for the job you actually want the cover to do.
Here is a closer look at both, with ideas for styling your living room, measuring your furniture and checking the details before you place an order.

Meet Haven: build a look one section at a time
Our Haven sofa cover listing on BIG W combines square and rectangular options that can be arranged across seats, arms and backrests. The result is a layered look, with parts of the original sofa frame still visible. You can plan a small update around a favourite seat or work through a more coordinated arrangement.
The listing shows Blue, White, Light Coffee, Green and grey, with dimensions including 70 × 70 cm, 90 × 90 cm, 90 × 160 cm, 90 × 180 cm and 90 × 210 cm. Choose from the options currently offered on the page. These measurements describe cover pieces, not a promise that a particular seat count will fit.
A useful first decision is how much of the original sofa you want to keep on show. A contrasting piece makes the seating areas more defined. A tone close to the upholstery creates a quieter change. Neither approach needs a complete room makeover: the right colour can work with what is already there.
Find a colour story that belongs in your room
Blue against light upholstery gives the seating a clear outline. To soften the contrast, repeat the blue in a small cushion or an existing picture and keep larger surrounding fabrics simple. You might choose a more neutral arrangement if the rug or curtains already bring plenty of colour.
For a cohesive room, look beyond the sofa itself. Check the undertones in your floor, curtains and larger furniture, then choose the cover alongside those fixed elements. If you are comparing colour photographs on a screen, remember that lighting and display settings affect how the shade appears. Ask a product question if matching an existing fabric closely is important.
Texture matters too. Look at close-up photographs as well as full-room views. A fine woven appearance can add interest without introducing a bold motif, giving you room to use a favourite patterned cushion or throw elsewhere.
Plan your Haven arrangement before ordering
Start with a quick sketch of your sofa. Label the seat areas you want covered, then add the arms and backrests if they are part of your plan. Measure each area in both directions and include the fold or overhang you prefer. A deep chaise needs its own measurements rather than the dimensions of the neighbouring seat.
Next, write a simple piece list: location, size and quantity. For example, you might need one longer seat piece and separate smaller pieces for the arms. Compare your list with the selected product options and confirm how many pieces each purchase supplies. Matching colours in a photograph does not mean all of those pieces arrive together.
Use our sofa measuring guide if you need help translating the layout into measurements. Once the pieces arrive, position them on the areas you measured and adjust the folds and edges. Keep expectations practical: separate draped pieces have a different finish from a fitted cover enclosing the entire sofa.
Meet Bondi: a different cover for patio furniture
The Bondi Water Resistant Patio Sofa Cover on BIG W has a different role. Despite “sofa” appearing in its product name, the listed format is an individual-chair cover. It goes over the back, arms and seat between sitting sessions and should be removed before you sit down.
Bondi is useful to compare when your task is covering furniture between uses rather than changing the surface you sit on. Its light upper section and dark lower band give it a plain, two-tone appearance. Choose according to the chair’s full shape and your intended conditions, not just whether it looks similar to one of the pictured examples.
Measure the widest part of the chair, the full depth from front to back and the height to the top of the backrest. Include projecting arms in those measurements. The listing gives five size options in inches, so keep all three measurements in the same unit when comparing and check the fitting allowance before ordering.
Look carefully at every dimension rather than assuming a larger-sounding size name is bigger in all directions. A wider cover may have less height than another option. If two measurements work but the third does not, pause and check with us before choosing.
Care and protection: choose with clear expectations
“Water Resistant” is part of Bondi’s name, but it should not be treated as a waterproof guarantee. The listing does not confirm a tested rain duration or waterproof rating, and identifies uncovered heavy rain, soaking and immersion as unsuitable uses. If your chair will face prolonged exposure, ask about those specific conditions before ordering.
For both products, follow the care label supplied with the item. Do not transfer washing or drying instructions from one cover to another. Haven’s listing name includes “Pet Friendly”, but that is not a guarantee against scratching or chewing. Consider your household’s use and ask about any performance feature that is essential to your decision.
Ordering through BIG W Marketplace
Look for Sold & shipped by Sofa Decor on the listing. Select the colour and size where offered, then review the item contents, current price, delivery information and returns details before checkout. Marketplace availability and offers may differ from those on our own website.
Does a styled sofa photograph show everything I receive?
No. It may contain multiple cover pieces, cushions and other accessories. Use the selected option’s contents to build your order, especially when recreating a Haven arrangement across several sofa sections.
Can Bondi be used as a seat cover while relaxing outdoors?
No. It is an enclosing furniture cover for the time between uses. Remove it before sitting. Its purpose and measurements are different from a cushion cover or a textile laid across a seat.
What should I send if I need help choosing?
Contact Sofa Decor with the BIG W product link, the size you are considering and your furniture measurements. Tell us whether you want a decorative seating layer or a cover for furniture between uses so we can help with the relevant product questions.
