You can create the look of a rustic farmhouse by opting for unfinished walls and adding wood beams to your living room ceiling. But if you don’t really like a totally rustic room, you can add a modern sofa with a white slipcover to create an eclectic style.

There is no better way to make your space feel more intimate and personal than by displaying your favorite photos. It could either be photographs you took or an abstract painting that has a special message for you. These photos will be the center of attraction for everyone who comes to your home.

If you like the 2D wall art, but don’t like seeing walls with lots of small art. Try decorating your walls with 2 or 3 large pieces of 2D wall art. The living room will be richer with artwork but still look minimalist and simple.

12. Bring Dark Accents in Your Light Living Room

Choose a dark shade of sofa, pillows, and some wall art to reduce the natural light coming into the living room. This will reduce glare and heat when the sun shines brightly and the light floods the living room.

13. Make a Room That Always Feels Warm

To get a dramatic impression every time you enter the living room, use dark colors on the walls, ceiling, floor, and some decorative ornaments, then choose furniture (chairs & tables) and rugs that are bright in color. This combination will produce a maximum dramatic atmosphere and the use of some real wood elements will make the room feel more alive.

It may take time and effort to create your dream living room, but once your living room is realized, it will all be worth it.
