A pouf is a large, firm cushion used as a seat or footrest. 🛋️ It's typically round or cylindrical, and often made of fabric or leather. Think of it as a super comfy, low-to-the-ground chair or ottoman. It's great for casual seating, adding a pop of color to a room, or just kicking up your feet. It offers a cozy and relaxed vibe.
