If you think that the time has come to give your living room a change of scenery, it is time to sit down, analyze the space well, see what needs you have, study the furniture and sofas you need and start planning that renovation. He needs it so much.
Open doors and throw partitions
If you have the opportunity, you can throw that partition that separates the entrance from the living room, or even integrate the kitchen. Open spaces are getting more and more and in addition to gaining in meters and visibility. If you do not like the option of joining kitchen and living room, you can always opt for glass partitions.
Furnish the living room taking into account the measures
One of the big mistakes that is made when furnishing a living room is buying pieces that are too big and that do not fit the space. Try that the furniture is balanced and fitted so that it does not turn out to be an overwhelming environment.
Bring walls (and ceilings) to life
Put a nice wallpaper (if it is a mural, better than better), a special painting … Do something special with them. And don’t forget about the ceilings either, because right now, it’s the new walls. The ceilings fill with life and demand papers and colors to contrast with the rest of the room.
Take advantage of natural light
If you have a chance and your house is bright, take advantage of this blessing. Clear the window area, and in winter avoid covering it with too thick curtains.
Looking for spectacular lamps
Luckily, the time for recessed spotlights has passed to a better life. Now, the lamps with personality are brought to give that different touch to the living room. And aside from the ceiling lamps, do not forget the floor or table lamps to create that necessary spot lighting to create an atmosphere.
Art, essential
Fill your room with pictures, prints, prints, photographs, sculptures … art should be very present in our lives. You can choose an XL painting to preside over the room, or play with smaller pieces to make compositions. And if you get tired of hanging things on the walls, you can also rest the paintings on the floor, on a trunk or on a piece of furniture.
Bet on sustainable materials
Everything sustainable is a trend. For fashion, and for that urgent need we have to save the planet. So look for certified wood furniture, kilometer 0 furniture and go for materials like wicker. Also fill the room with green plants to bring nature closer to your home.
A japandi style lounge
If you want to have your living room up to date, go for the japandi style, a style that mixes Nordic deco with Japanese style. A trend that will fill your living room with wood and bamboo, thus connecting with the commitment to having a sustainable house.
And to paint the living room …
Pantone’s hottest color this year is Classic Blue. A color that can be present in furniture or accessories. But to paint the walls, one of the trendy colors this year is beige. For small spaces, or for minimalist environments, the White it is still the best option.
Install a fireplace
Fireplaces are in fashion. Just take a look on Instagram. If you can not put a real fireplace, you can put a decorative fireplace to fill it with books or candles, or bet on an electric fireplace.
