Living Room Designs Ideas

Some Tips for living room

• While planning the furniture arrangement of your living room, make sure that you leave enough space around the items to let people move freely, without being tripped.
• For a huge living room, it is very good idea to divide the complete area into different sections. You can use screens or partitions to create separate areas for dining, gossiping, media viewing, reading and playing.
• In case your living room is small in size, it is advisable to have a versatile, multi-functional arrangement, such as having a sofa-cum-bed. This way, you will be able to make much greater use of the limited space.
• Decorative screens, flooring, rugs and carpets are amongst the main fixtures that can be used for defining the zones in the living room. You can also use designer furniture arrangements for the purpose.
• Create a warm and cozy reading or knitting area by placing a throw rug in a separate area and keeping a high-backed chair on top. If you can find a space near the fireplace, all the more better!
• While you can use runners to indicate the pathways in the living room, area rugs can help create a cozy feel.
• The furnishing should always be selected depending upon the scale of your living room. Neither should they be too small to make it look empty, nor so large to make it over-cluttered.
• Mark one of the walls in the living room as the focal point, by adding interesting accent pieces, such as a huge mirror, painting, or mural. Use task lighting to highlight it further.
• The surfaces that you plan to use for eating purposes should be durable as well as easily washable.
• Personal collectibles, such as china, pottery, glass, stones, wine glasses, candelabra, photographs, crystals, figurines, sculpture and books, make great display items. Use accent lighting to highlight them further.
