Where do you even start when restyling one of the most important areas of the house, where you spend most of your time? Yes, we are referring to the living room. The space that is meant to exude and capture good mood. Here is a guide on how to make it modern, without compromising on personality.
Simplify your color palette
A minimalist style really does come in handy when refurbishing your living room. It makes space look vaster and more in tune with contemporary design styles. We suggest creating a 5-color chromatic palette to play with. Try harmonizing similar shades and complementary colors to achieve an apparently effortless look that will impress guests and never go out of fashion.
A new sofa
The role a sofa plays in your modern living room is unbelievable. By switching your outdated sofa with a more contemporary one, your modern living room will feel instantly rejuvenated. Nowadays peninsula sofas and chaise longues with sinuous, simple lines are trending. Even though modern seats are comfortable, they tend to be unwieldy and take up quite a lot of space. We suggest tweaking your furniture placement according to the shape and size of your new piece for everything to fit together nicely.
Look after the walls
In order to look after you living room walls, you need to take upkeep into consideration. First and foremost, it is important that every surface is smoothly plastered and coherently arranged in terms of both color and decoration. Our modern living room tends to be crammed with family photos and knick-knacks randomly scattered around. The good news is, you don’t need to dispose of any of these things! You simply need to rethink your living space and rearrange things parsimoniously. Instead of tossing all your stuff into your modern living room, try relocating it according to each room’s vibe to create a cohesive leitmotiv. It will make your home look less packed and in harmony with modern trends.
Set your creativity free
There's no room for modernity without challenging the norm. Have fun whilst experimenting with new combinations, shapes and textiles to make your modern living room unique. See this as a challenge: customize your space with as much creativity and avant-garde as you please. What matters the most is proper aesthetic balance in your living space, for it to be as welcoming and comfortable as possible in the long run. Get inspired by our collections:
