The Living Room decor is essentially an introduction to your house and your personality as well and that is why everyone wants it to be the best. Add to that, the amount of time you spent here and you will definitely want something that is comfortable and stylish at the same time. Choosing the right furniture can pose a dilemma if you consider that guests have the first impression about your sense of interior décor from here itself.
1. Identify your own style: There are a plethora of options with contemporary, traditional and funky furniture to decorate your living room. You can go for:- Sophisticated Glass and metallic furniture
– Antique
– New-age (with geometric patterns)
– Eco-friendly Bamboo or Jute
– Classic upholstered
– Wrought iron furniture
2. Choose as per your lifestyle: If you have children or pets, then go for something that can withstand daily scratching and chipping. Otherwise, you can choose delicate furniture to complement your living room.
3. Contrasting is attractive but maintain a similarity of themes: Maintain a similar theme with subtle variations.
4. Avoid the clutter: Be judicious in choosing the number of furniture pieces. Keep it spacious with sufficient walking space.
5. Match wisely: While buying, you can get impressed by a certain style and later find the furniture to be a complete mismatch. To avoid this, set your mind on either the color of the room s walls or the styling of the living rooms and the other rooms as well.
6. Color: To create an open and big feeling in a small area, go for bright and solid colors in the main pieces like the sofa and settee. You can compliment this with modern Glass and Chrome plated coffee/side tables and stands. If you have a larger area, then darker colors are better, which can be combined with wooden tables/stands in wood grains and brass/pewter handles to create a cozy feel.
Decorating your living room ceases to be a challenge if you search well and take some time out to mix-n-match. Depending on your preference for durability or a need to have fresh look every time, you can choose the perfect living room furniture by visiting showrooms or online stores to get a better idea.
