So whether your living room is an expansive open plan, a shared home office space or on the compact side, there are a variety of looks to suit your taste. Plus of course, we have catered to a wide variety of styles, colour preferences and budgets. And as ever, there are ideas you can adopt quickly and whole renovation inspiration. Remember that any room is a sum of various parts, so try and create a mood board with as many elements as you can get your hands on. When choosing paint colours, think about the aspect of your room, north, east, south and west. A colour you have seen in a magazine or a friend's house may not respond in your room, so sampling is essential. Try and paint large swatches that you can move around the walls at different times of the day to see how the colour transitions in natural lighting. For a thoroughly modern feel, choosing a couple of shades of the same colour and using them in various spots in the living room can assist in accentuating the room's aesthetic. Consider painting the ceiling too. It's been a big trend recently that we feel will carry on for a good year or so. Darker shades of paint works well too and adding a pattern rug pulls the tones of the room together. Colourful jewel turn throw pillows add a liveliness to the room which features subtle pale grey green walls and natural fabrics. Artwork placed directly across a tinted yellow mirror balances out the opposite side of the room and allows the artwork to be seen from those sitting directly under the sofa. If you decided to keep your walls neutral or white but still fancy a splash of colour, then consider choosing accent colours to boost interest. It's a fabulous way to incorporate a shade you love and you can go all out with patterns too. It needn't be all about plain mundane colours. Botanical artworks complement the textile and add to the country feel. Clean white walls and white pieces such as lamp and side tables ensure the space feels modern, light and airy. Useful if you're looking for a small living room idea. For a playful room, go for a vibrant printed design on your furniture. If you're not brave with pattern, choose a plain hard-wearing woven fabric and add some stylish cushions. Sometimes it's good to incorporate antiques that you have had forever as a starting point for a living room scheme or source some characterful pieces. Mixing the old and the new ensures that a room won't be overly influenced by current trend and date quickly. While statement pops of colour and pattern combined with natural materials will really bring it to life with a turn of modernity. Incorporating different design styles into your space includes mixing new with antique pieces. It helps to make the space feel layered and like it has been around for a long time. A strong rug can be transformational, bringing personality, texture and warmth to a living room. Sometimes there are subtle designs that anchors the overall scheme but sometimes it's a stronger statement piece that dictates the turn of the whole room.
