Living rooms were originally intended to act as sophisticated settings for hosting and entertaining, while family rooms were used for more casual, everyday activities, like lounging, playing or watching TV. However, many homes today will only have one larger room that acts as both an entertainment and primary living space. If yours is the former, you’ll likely be utilizing it as a sitting room to have drinks and good conversation with guests, without distractions like television. As often shown in living room photos, a bar cart, formal furniture and an eye-catching focal point, such as a sophisticated fireplace and mantel, will help achieve this look and feel. On the other hand, if its your primary living space it should see more daily use, often functioning as a TV room, complete with sofa sectional, media console and gaming spot (that cleans up nicely for guests, of course!). In the end, think about your needs when considering different living room ideas; after all, a family with small children will likely need a playroom more than a formal sitting room.
If you have the depth for it, an ottoman or coffee table where people can prop their feet up is always a welcome living room decorating idea, but skip out on this if the living room is on the narrow side and go for a deeper sofa instead. Whatever size your space is, there’s plenty of living room inspiration to choose from - to get started on your living room remodel, add living room pictures which spark creativity to an ideabook on.
This rule is mostly applied in the case of furniture: devoted trend followers use geometrically concise furniture, such as straight-lined sofas and dining tables. The commonly applied principles are minimalism and rigidness, which don’t, however, make you sacrifice comfort and functionality. The secret is to balance between strict symmetry and temporal asymmetry, which can be easily achieved with bold artwork, or fluffy pillows. The colors you apply should clearly contrast the neural palette applied on the walls and floors, depending on what you planned to be the focal point in the room.
