Living room: the interior and details of its arrangement

The living room, as a rule, is the central room in any dwelling. It is, in a way, the "face" of the house. It is here most often the whole family gathers, and here they receive guests. What should be the ideal living room (interior in particular)? Let's try to figure this out.

First of all, it should be noted that the living room should reflect the individuality of its owners, communicate their views and outlook to the guests. But this room should be convenient for the owners. And, of course, cozy. Can you do it all yourself? And will there be a living room, the interior of which the owners developed independently, as attractive as the work of a professional designer? With a certain effort - no doubt!

Start the process of arranging the living room is with the definition of the area that will be allocated for this purpose. If the area of the future living room is large enough, then it is not worth it to clutter up with massive furniture and a lot of, perhaps, beautiful, but not so necessary things. If the area is already small, then every effort should be made to place everything that is necessary, and in parallel visually expand the space. Generally speaking, the interior of a small living room should be exquisitely simple. Only in this way will it be possible to make the room functional and attractive at the same time. Yes, in fact, in a large room, simplicity is only welcome. At the same time, no one says that the interior should be boring! Not at all!

To ensure that the living room, the interior of which you created in person, did not bore you literally a month after the completion of the repair, you should immediately consider possible options for modifying the situation. So, wallpaper is worth sticking on those that you can repaint. This is already a great help! It is desirable to make furniture built-in (at least part of it). Such a solution will help to expand the space not only visually. Also an excellent option for the living room is the transforming furniture. For example, tables-transformers that can turn from a coffee table into full-fledged dining tables; Bed-tables. They say that mirrors are an ideal solution to the problem of a darkened and not too large room. It's true, but you should not abuse mirrors. Maximum - one mirror wall in front of the window.

Now it is worth discussing such a question as the combination of colors in the interior of the living room. As practice shows, if wallpaper (that is, walls) can be repainted quite easily, then it is not so simple with furniture and sex. That is why it is better to choose furniture for the living room of neutral and classical colors (cream, beige, brown, black, gray). These colors are always relevant and are combined with almost all the known shades. The floor is also better to make neutral - similar in tone to the wood of oak, pine or birch (you can choose both a laminate and parquet from natural wood, in some cases, even linoleum of good quality will be appropriate).

Such basic tones of furniture and floor will allow you to experiment as often as you want. A boring living room, the interior of which obviously requires renovation, will be radically transformed, if you hang new curtains, repaint walls (you can, by the way, paint the walls not entirely, but fragmentarily), decorate the room with interior stickers or bright collages from the photo. Another way to introduce something new in the interior of the living room is the change of covers on upholstered furniture, the purchase of new bedspreads or pillowcases for sofa cushions.

Do not forget about such a powerful tool as lighting. Only one ceiling chandelier should not be limited! It would be nice to add a couple of floor lamps, a table lamp. Another tool with which you can transform the living room magically - the backlight. Changing the color of the glow of the lamps, you can make the living room so different!

These, of course, are the most general recommendations. But to understand the direction of action they will allow. And then everything depends on the imagination of the owners!
