Cushions are definitely a nice addition to a bed when it comes to comfort and cosiness. Rich, fluffy cushions add to the feeling you want to have when you are in bed: you want to feel relaxed. Besides, although they can be a pain to remove before sleeping if you have too many of them, they upgrade your bed to the next design level. I have 5 cushions, all of them rectangular and fluffy. I have mixed the colours, patterns, and textures in order to make my bed stand out: a nice trick for that is to use white sheets, and vivid and colourful cushions to contrast with the whiteness of the bed. Plain velvety mustard yellow and fushia plain cushions mixed with green geometric patterns, ... I've got them all!

Hi Hannah, I think it will look best to go for an eclectic mix of bright colours. Urban Outfitters UK have some quirky cushion designs http://www.urbanoutfitters.com/uk/catalog/category.jsp?id=SOFT-FURNISHINGS-EU&startValue=1#/. I have also come across a great site called Society 6 that have a huge range of bold and brightly coloured cushion designs (some shown below) and can be found at: http://society6.com/pillows. Perfect for a teenage bedroom!
