Ferm Living Rico Pouf

The Ferm Living Rico Pouf brings that same soft, curvaceous design philosophy from the Rico collection into a compact piece that actually earns its keep in your living space. Available as a made-to-order piece, you get to choose from their complete fabric lineup including chunky wool boucle, smooth Main Line Flax weaves, textured grain fabrics, and specialty patterns that coordinate beautifully with other Rico pieces or work perfectly on their own. At 60cm diameter and 41cm high, this thing hits that sweet spot where it's substantial enough to work as extra seating when people come over but compact enough to tuck away or move around easily. The round shape and generous padding give it this inviting, almost squishy quality that makes every room feel more relaxed and approachable.

What makes this pouf really useful is how it handles all those everyday situations where you need flexible seating or surface space. Perfect height for putting your feet up while watching TV, but sturdy enough that kids can sit on it for game night or you can use it as an impromptu side table. The wooden structure with foam padding means it holds its shape whether someone's sitting on it or it's just there looking good, and the curved base gives it this solid, grounded feeling that doesn't wobble or tip like some lightweight poufs do. The construction quality shows - this is made in Italy and built to handle real daily use rather than just looking pretty in a showroom.

Ferm Living has been perfecting this whole Danish design approach since 2005, when founder Trine Andersen started making her own wallpaper because she couldn't find anything she liked. That same philosophy of creating what you actually want rather than settling for what's available carries through to their furniture. The Rico collection represents their understanding that the best pieces adapt to how you live rather than forcing you to change your routine. Working with skilled Italian manufacturers, they've developed furniture that combines Scandinavian simplicity with construction quality that means these pieces become part of your home for years, not just until you find something better.
