The Perfect Living Room

Defining the perfect living room is more like trying to define a perfect person; there is no consolidated method to do this since it all depends on perspective. You're living room doesn't just speak about your design taste but it also represents your personality in many ways. There is no concrete method you can follow to ensure you have the perfect living room. The 'perfect' here is rather subjective.

As one can imagine, getting started is the trickiest stage. There are so many different styles and designs to choose from that you often find that the decision id harder. There are some that like the traditional kind of a set up while others go for the more contemporary and arty kind of a look. The bottom line is to zero in on any one approach and stick to it throughout. Sure you may have all the ideas but there is no harm looking at a few magazines, books and referring to the internet for variations.

Take a look at some of these steps to get your basics right;

Don't try and mix styles too much. For example, if you've selected a contemporary style living room, too much traditional accessories and decor thrown in will make hard to follow.

Clutter can be one of the biggest enemies in creating a stylish living. Get rid of anything unnecessary and stick to the bare minimum - after all, it's your living room; not a museum. Living room furniture such as TV units, sofas, display cabinets etc. are perfect for organizing and tidying some of your valuables. Furniture can be of different sizes and shapes but ensure that they follow the same theme and colour scheme.

The colours of the wall and the flooring are equally important to the living room. Make sure that these factors are in sync with your theme of the room.

Light can do wonders to making your living room feel more spacious and really emphasising detail. Make sure that there is ample natural light and also look out for methods of managing it such as blinds, curtains etc. Select and place your artificial lights in a way that highlights the room in a balanced manner. You don't always need to use direct light as reflected light through mirrors has a similar effect.

The colour of other elements such as the drapes, carpets, occasional tables, TV units, sofa, display cabinets etc. are also equally important. The worst thing you can do is to have a consistent colour tone in the room and suddenly break it with a contrasting colour.

Again, these elements need to be placed to ensure a proper focal point in the room. It shouldn't happen that there is more than one orientation being followed. This not only gets confusing but also looks disorderly. There's no harm using small accessories in groups but make sure you don't overdo it. Larger accessories should be given much more space when compared to the smaller ones.
