5 Best Tips to make your Living Room more Beautiful
1. name zones.
In a small room, you probably only have room for a conversation nook and no extra space for furniture groups. Large rooms can be so much more than just a large sitting area, but you may need to get creative to make the most of the room's size or shape. Specify several possible functional areas in the room, such as a conversation area (or two or three!), a media area, an area for a desk, console or game table, a dining area or perhaps a reading area.
2. Divide the space visually.
You can incorporate ceiling beams, half walls, or columns (like the ones between my family room and the kitchen) to visually divide a space in a semi-permanent way. If you are flexible, you can also use rugs, curtains, wallpaper and furniture placement to create visually cozy areas within the larger space. Even a sofa with its back to another room, or a chaise longue, a large bench, tables between chairs, an attractive screen, large lamps, curtains or plants can help divide spaces.
3. anchor the room.
Large rooms or large living areas can look cluttered if you put too much small furniture in the room without a few anchors. A couch set, a large sofa, a large coffee table and even built-in bookshelves or a piano will help anchor the space so smaller pieces can be placed here and there as accents if needed.
4. Scale is important.
Do you have high ceilings that make your space look unbalanced? Opt for taller furniture whenever possible. If all the furniture is short, your ceilings will look too high and your furniture will look like dwarves. Consider a taller bookshelf, armoire, higher backs on chairs and sofas, and taller accessories.
5. Use color.
Use color and pattern to break up large wall spaces in a large room or reduce the size of a high wall to a more comfortable height. Add wainscoting in different neutral tones or paint colors above and below the molding. If you have a high ceiling, you can try a simple trick to make your space cozier. If you paint the ceiling one or two or even more shades darker than the walls (or use wainscoting!), your ceiling will not seem as high and your room can look cozier and more comfortable.
