Trending furniture ideas to redecorate your living room

Gone are the days we used to keep the living room with an old-fashioned sofa, a center table and a TV at the center of it. Your living space should feel like walking into a cozy, relaxing atmosphere that feels like home. And today, we’ve got some new redecorating ideas for you to transform your home into a magical place. 

Sri Lanka is a little behind when it comes to home decor. However, we see some improvements nowadays. There is a high demand for minimal furniture, wall decor, and simple, elegant plants, vases, and ornaments. How do you figure out what fits right for your space? Let us help you out. 

1. Pick a color palette for your living room

Your living room does not need to be in uniform color. Picking a color palette can help you balance the appearance while adding a touch of class. If you paint the walls in one color, choose your sofa in a different color within your color palette. Your coffee table or the centerpiece can match the complimenting materials used in the sofa. For example, if your sofa has wooden arms, choose a coffee table with wooden legs and a glass or marble top. If the wall is a dark color, you can go with light-colored wall decor or vice versa. 

2. Minimal furniture and ornaments

The next tip is to use minimal furniture to compliment your living room. These could be small bookshelves, vases with plants, lampshades, etc. Geometrical furniture is trending these days. You might want to consider metal ones instead of traditional wooden or glass furniture. Ensure this furniture and ornaments do not take up a lot of space, to avoid your space from looking cluttered. You can find these types of furniture from many furniture shops in your area, or you can browse most of the vendors through ikman at once. 

3. Statement mirrors can make a great difference

Round, statement mirrors with metallic frames are another trending furniture idea you can use to decorate your living room. They can liven up the walls and add elegance at once. Not only do they look great, but also reflect light and the colors surrounding the area, which is pleasing to the eye. Remember to hang these mirrors on a lighter-colored wall, as the metal frames are often gold or silver in color. 

4. Unique and pastel-colored sofas for living room

A sofa is the center of attention in most living rooms. Instead of the traditional black, grey, brown, and leather sofas, we now see pastel-colored, or rather unique colors of sofa options these days. Not only do they look bold and satisfying, but they can also give you numerous ideas for a unique color palette and designs to work with. We can see that many reputed interior designers refrain from using 3-2-2 and 3-2-1 combinations of sofa these days. Instead, there is a single sofa placed in front of the largest wall in the living room with a statement color. You can use an ottoman with a different color and pattern to liven up the atmosphere even more without taking up much space. 

5. Minimal vases with simple plants/accessories

A common trend that brings sophistication to your living room is a minimal vase or two placed on the floor with either a simple plant or fake plant or accessories. You can place these in front of a brighter or darker colored wall to bring contrast. It can give the most iconic look. In addition to vases, pots, clay ornaments, and statues can also serve a great look on a tabletop or a shelf. Some antique pieces popping can also make a drastic difference to the look and feel of the room.
