The living room is one of the easiest rooms in the home to dress up with a little color, full of furniture and decor that’s easily changed, moved, or replaced. HomeThangs.com has introduced a guide to five simple ways to get started.
It’s almost always wise to start with a rather neutral baseline living room decor. Neutral carpets and wood flooring hide dirt and can make a living space look larger, while major purchases like a sofa should be neutral enough in color that they can easily blend with a changing space. Black, white, or any shade of beige or even gray will work. With a neutral backdrop, though, small decor items, botanicals, and artwork stand out beautifully, giving the space a more vibrant appearance.
In an overall neutral decor, adding a single bold, colorful piece of accent furniture will stand out like an exclamation mark. Red accents are a popular choice, but any color will work. A bold, colorful lamp or accent table can completely change the ambiance of a room – especially one done in light neutral tones - infusing it with a little life without replacing any major furniture.
Accent chairs, while a little more expensive (and taking up a little more floor space) are another great way to add a splash of color to a living space. A single piece of furniture won’t overwhelm the space, even one done in a very bold color or funky pattern. For the color lovers, mixing and matching furniture (or cushions, pillows, or slipcovers) in different shades or patterns of the same color is a great way to create a coordinated, unified decor that puts color front and center. But even a single chair with the right accessories can do the same in a neutral decor.
Perhaps one of the simplest ways to add color to a living space is to paint one or more of the walls. Accent walls are easier to paint and easier to change up more often than a fully painted room, but either way, a simple coat or two of paint in a trendy color is maybe the most tried and true way to update a living room. For added impact, choose a bold color and accessorize with a contrasting color – either in the wall art, decor, throw pillows, or even fresh flowers.
Even the view from a living room window can help add color to an interior space. From posh cityscapes to sprawling ocean views or even just a dotting of trees, whatever large windows look out on can become a base color for the room. White walls can keep the space bright, allowing the view to take front and center, while simple decor items that match the view – wither it’s a few botanicals or just a couple items in the right shade of sky blue – can really pull the beauty outside throughout the whole living space.
