The living room is the centerpiece of the home and for many fashion-conscious homeowners, something out of the ordinary is the aim. While themes are still popular, it is also in vogue to have each room as a unique style.
Here are a few ideas that you might not have considered when designing your lounge.
- Statement sofa – You can shop sofas at Kensington Furniture, a leading US supplier of quality furniture; two, three and even four-seater sofas are available in a range of attractive colors. Salmon pink would make for a cool base color with a beige carpet, if you are looking to hype the contrast; the online supplier has the lowest prices for top quality furniture and you’ll probably find a few more items you need in the same store.
- Warm minimalism – A few leather beanbags and a couple of rugs are all you really need, with a slimline bookshelf and the TV on the wall. Long drapes and some small wall art to break up large expanses of blank wall, a couple of small wall lamps provide cozy lighting.
- Go wild with textures – Textured wallpaper is the base layer, with thick pile carpet and leather upholstery; create an antique study look with a military chest and a chesterfield type suite. On the other hand, you could opt for a modern abstract look with reed wallpaper and bamboo furniture, with stunning shades of green and brown.
- Art Deco – A huge black and white L shaped sofa would make for an ideal centerpiece for an Art Deco living room; some deep red and yellow to break up the monochrome look with abstract art and a poster of Marilyn Monroe. An octagonal coffee table as a center piece works and an explosion of rich color and straight lines make it really 1930s.
- Antique & contemporary – Mixing is all the rage; a leather chesterfield suite has to be the statement of this space, with an antique chest of drawers, a few heavy rugs and tasteful oil paintings on the walls.
The above are just a few ideas on how to create a unique living room that is easy on the eye. Shop online for the best furniture prices and transform your living space.
