Interior Design for Living Room

You need to fix a color scheme for your living room. You can't have a room full of colors that do not match with one another, instead think of a room with just shades of a single color; it will look calm and classy. Even if you choose two colors for interior painting, they must form a good combination. Remember, you are going to use the same color all over your room, the walls, fabrics and so on. You may be feeling a specific color will look perfect on the walls, in this case you can have a trial of that shade and then take the final decision. Colors you visualize will look different in the paint form.




Decide the Layout: Finalize the items in your living room. First, decide what all is 'a must' to be placed here. Now, decide the living room furniture layout and that of the other home decor items too. You can use a pen and paper to see some arrangements, instead of moving the heavy objects. Decide the final arrangement, see how it actually looks. Now, see the remaining space and decide what all you can add to your living room for decoration purpose. Find a perfect place for each of the decorative objects, see what fits the best in which place. You may leave some places to have some new decorative pieces or furniture accordingly.

Be Selective: Don't fill your room just for the sake of making it look extra trendy. Be selective in using the decorative items and choose the unique home decor only. This will help you to highlight the home decor and give a spacious look to the room. Placing unnecessary things to fill the empty spaces will just make your room look congested and may ruin the entire effort.

Choose a Focal Point: Choose a focal point of your room. Now what is focal point? Nothing related to science. It is a thing or an area in your room which you want to highlight or focus the attention towards. Like a beautiful window, awesome couch or a fireplace. You can choose the accessories and lighting to enhance this point of focus.

Lighting: Lights play an extremely important role in interior decoration and overall appearance of the room. Give extra attention to this and decide the lighting points. Also, consider the natural light entering the room during the day. Depending upon the length of your room, see the number of points you require for lighting.
