4 Tips to Design an Elegant Living Room

Updated: May 12, 2022


 

Whether you’re using it to entertain, hang out with your family, binge Netflix or enjoy some relaxation time on the sofa, the living room is where the social part of the home life takes place.

Here are four ways you can take your living room design to the next level to get the most out of your space.

#1 Make your view a focal point

Living in Vero Beach, you likely have a gorgeous view of the ocean, intracoastal, your private swimming pool, or even just gorgeous palm trees. Making your view a focal point of the room will make you feel connected to your surrounding landscape.

And when you have a beautiful view, why wouldn’t you want to take advantage of it? So, arrange the furniture accordingly, install large picture windows, and choose easy-to-use retractable window treatments to make the most of every panoramic angle in your living room.

#2 Make your small space feel elegant

Just because your living room may be on the smaller side does not mean it can’t still be elegant and “wow” your guests. It’s all about the details when it comes to compact spaces.

Be sure to keep both color and comfort in mind, as these are both important when it comes to making your guests feel relaxed and at ease. Features like a fireplace and floor-to-ceiling windows and can add a great deal of charm to any small room, but also remember to accessorize with the perfect little touches to help create the elegant ambiance you are going for.

#3 Make the room feel luxurious

Add a touch of luxury to your modern living room! Opt for statement light fixtures, go for large area rugs, install opulent window treatments, hang oversized statement-making artwork, choose pillows and throws in luxe textiles, and choose glamourous accessories.

But always make sure you are choosing pieces that inspire you and fit your design preferences.

#4 Be bold and add color

Colorful spaces can feel happier, brighter, and even larger. If you are going to utilize color in a big way, though, make sure the room is simple and functional, as well.

By utilizing the right pattern and color combination, your living room will come to life. Choosing bold and vibrant accessories and details will make your living room feel complete.
