The living room is the most public space in the house, so it’s a great place to make an impression and show off your personal style. Decor Aid’s guide to decorating the living room can help you create a space that you and your guests won’t want to leave.

As one of the most frequently used rooms in the house, your living room has to fulfill a multitude of functions. When designing your space, it is important to think about how you plan to use it. For example, if you plan to entertain frequently, you should have plenty of seating, space for drinks such as end tables or coffee tables, and space for food, games, etc.

If you host cocktail parties frequently, consider a bar cart or even a dry bar so you don’t have to walk into the kitchen during the event. A sound system and entertainment center are must-have for music or movie fans. Your living room should also be a place for relaxation and family time. Upholstered items like plush sofas and armchairs provide cozy places to relax with a book or watch a movie.

Living room furniture Seating is the biggest consideration in home design. A couch or sectional sofa anchors the space, while love seats work well as the main piece in smaller spaces. Add chairs to create a conversation area around a coffee table or ottoman. Storage space is also essential for a well-designed living room. Freestanding or built-in bookshelves can hold books, movies, and music, and display valuable items, awards, and family photos.

Living room decor ideas If you’re looking to freshen up your room or experiment with trends, small accent pieces like pillows, throws, and vases can be affordable, low-risk living room ideas. Try patterned pillows to give your sofa a new look, or add a graphic accent rug over carpeting or a rug with a larger area.

Express yourself with art and wall decor. A salon or gallery wall is a popular interior design trend that allows you to showcase art, personal photos, or a mix. Or, if you want to make a unique artistic statement, choose a larger piece of art to set the tone of the room.

The color schemes in the living room can be neutral or bold. If you want to use a light color but don’t want it to overwhelm the room, consider using a single accent wall in a strong hue. Carpets are a great way to add pattern, color, and texture to the living room. Carpets and carpets not only make the room cozier, but can also absorb noise – a necessity in apartments or houses with high ceilings.

Since the living room is used for so many different activities, make sure you have the right light for each activity. When it comes to ceiling lighting, a chandelier or pendant light above the main seating area is a classic choice. A pair of wall sconces can be used over a fireplace or mantelpiece to highlight works of art and ensure symmetry. Floor and table lamps provide additional light, for example next to a reading chair or on a desk.

How to decorate a small living room For small houses or apartments, the living room serves many purposes. It can be used as a dining room, home office or guest room at any time. A convertible sofa is a small living room idea if you have frequent house guests. Multipurpose furniture such as a trunk that serves as a storage room and a coffee table can also make the most of a small space.
