The you only use to relax? You will need to focus all your attention on the relaxation area, with sofa, pouf or armchair.
Do you have a lot of books and no other room in which to house them? Then the main function of your living room will be that of a personal library and since books take up so much space, you will necessarily be forced to give up something else.
Yours is a living room that also houses a kitchenette? Then you will have to provide a smaller and more functional relaxation area, with TV and comfortable seating.
Finally, do you also use the living room as a study? You will not be able to give up a good table that you will need to support your computer and everything you need to study or work.
Choose the style based on functionality

For example: a living room that also has a kitchenette will have to adapt to the style of the latter: colors, finishes and looks will have to match.

3 original solutions to furnish a living room of 25 square meters
We come now at our solutions to help you furnish a living room of 25 square meters: we have made a list of the best ideas out there, taking a look you will surely find the best way of design your environment to be beautiful and functional and that all spaces are properly exploited.
1. Furnish a living room of 25 m² with kitchen
If your living room will also have to accommodate the kitchen corner then you will have to build your environment around this functionality. In the photo below we show you an original solution that uses a recessed wall in which the kitchen is adapted, so as to form a small kitchenette and to leave all the rest of the space for relaxation.
The table in the living room will also be used as a dining table. The living room is thus divided in a very functional and precise way into kitchenette, dining and dinner area and a corner next to the TV where the sofas were placed. The TV hangs on the wall, in this way you will not need a bulky equipped wall.
2. Living room transformed into a personal library
If you have many, many books you know very well how much space they take up: the living room could be the perfect place to collect them and, considering that a bookcase is a beautiful piece of furniture, it can become the excuse for a classic or industrial style furniture.
In the solution that we show you below the bookcase is fixed to the wall, leaving the lower area free which can be used to place a low sideboard or other furniture e thus recover a lot of space.
3. Transform your 25m2 living room into a studio
Last idea to furnish your living room if you have decided to use it also as a studio. Find the perfect angle to concentrate, usually it is the brightest one, perhaps next to the window, as in the case we show you below.
Much also depends on the space you need, if you have a small notebook and you don’t need to have many books, you can opt for a small table top, otherwise we recommend that you take advantage of the table dining, which usually it is found in any living room, as a support.
You can separate the relaxation area from the study area or at work with a panel like the one in the photo: a sort of grate that lets the light through but also acts as a separator.
