IDÉES POUR LE SÉJOUR: 6 FAÇONS DE L'AMÉNAGER MAGNIFIQUEMENT

Ideas for the living room: 6 ways to furnish it beautifully 

Of all the rooms in the house, the living room deserves the most attention in interior design. Just like the kitchen (or even more), in the living room we spend hours and hours, so it must be equipped for a whole range of activities. A comfortable fabric sofa is essential for family movie nights, a good rug is essential for playing with the little ones, and good lighting is essential for evening reading sessions. In short, every detail counts!

A bold background for a space with great impact

If impactful decorations are your thing, bold wallpapers are a good way to create an eclectic, lively and fun space. Choose a pale green and match it with blue furnishings: this combination will soften the effect of the pattern on the wallpaper, creating an overall much softer feeling. 

Divide the living room according to daily routine

Where once the living room was the place to only watch TV in the evening, over time it has become a real lounge, a place where children do homework, work and of course home cinema. So, how to enclose all this in one space? If yours is a long living room, you can divide it semi-permanently without completely closing off an area of the room. The smartest and most lasting way to do this is with a glass wall (which can include a door), allowing family members to have some time apart to carry out their activities, while still keeping the room spacious.

Rely on metals to add a glamorous touch 

Metals in a living room should not be limited to hard surfaces such as lamps and furniture: even upholstery fabrics or curtains with a shiny finish can bring the right touch of glamour and liven up an otherwise neutral space.

Add simple but elegant decorations

An antique Persian rug defines the areas of the living room. The rich colors of the rug and traditional armchairs add warmth, their formality is offset by comfortable sofas upholstered in natural linen to introduce a lighter atmosphere. The furniture should be symmetrically positioned to create a balanced look.

Introduce wood to warm up the atmosphere

If you are looking for ideas for a living room perhaps served by windows facing north or east that provide only morning light, it may be a wise decision to add warmth to the room with structural materials. You can do this with a wooden floor, walls covered in wood or wooden ceilings. Or, of course, you can simply add warmth with wooden furniture and complete with colors and textures in other furniture.

Create your own personal conversation area

To give the living room an atmosphere of warmth and welcome, arrange seating so that conversation, not TV, is the focus. In addition to the sofa and armchairs, arrange a padded pouf, on which it will be possible to place a tray of drinks or an afternoon tea if necessary. The comfortable furnishings will be further softened by pillows that invite you to relax for a while. The pair of armchairs with their own side table create an area where two people can sit and talk together, while the sofas offer additional seating.
