Love it or hate it, faux fur furniture is having a big moment in home design, and you'll spot it creeping up in a lot more interiors lately.

The faux fur trend started off as sheepskin throws over the sofa or as a fluffy accent pillow. But now that furry trend is coming to furniture. And it's no longer just a hot dorm accessory, but you'll also spot it being incorporated into more sophisticated living rooms too.
