The Spruce / Jason Donnelly

Your living room is a place built for leisure time, from bonding with family to entertaining friends to relaxing and recharging on your own. While design decisions such as layout will be largely determined by the size and style of the room, the decor should be built around your lifestyle, tailored to the needs of those who use it most while remaining flexible enough to accommodate guests or growing families.

Check out these living rooms that vary in style, size, and personality, for some ideas on how to elevate your living room decor—from furniture to lighting to textiles to accessories to window treatments, wallpaper, paint and more—to create a living room that's livable, inviting, and looks as good as it feels.

    In this bright, neutral SoHo loft in New York City from interior designer Ghislaine Viñas, curvy furniture helps to balance the boxy, industrial proportions of the living room area, and a pair of bright yellow armchairs injects some mood-boosting color that energizes and warms the space.

    This Cape Cod fisherman's cabin from Alfredo Paredes Studio has an indoor outdoor feel and rustic finishes and decor—like a pair of cozy weathered leather French club chairs—that look right at home. Choosing vintage pieces with a well worn patina will help make your home feel lived in and authentic, whether or not it comes with a salty oceanfront view.

    Design by Ghislaine Viñas / Photo by Garrett Rowland

    If you love color but have difficulty choosing a color palette for the living room, why not install a giant rainbow area rug and cover all your bases. In this white- and brick-walled New York City apartment from interior designer Ghislaine Viñas, the rainbow rug anchors the seating area with its saturated red sofa and pair of blue armchairs, while a large red wall cabinet and a multicolored piece of framed art over the fireplace pulls some of the color throughout the rest of the room.

    Design by Atelier Davis / Photo by Emily Followill

    In this Atlanta living room from interior designer Jessica Davis of Atelier Davis, the floor-to-ceiling windows are juxtaposed with a jumble of artwork on the warm wood paneled walls, and the room is generously layered with texture, from the Beni Ourain rug to the chunky knit blanket, patterned throw pillows, and coffee table styled with books and decor objects.

    Paint It All Black

    living room ideas

    Design by Caroline Andréoni Interior Design / Photo by Sophie Lloyd

    In this sophisticated French living room from Caroline Andréoni Interior Design, matte black paint on the walls and ceiling creates an enveloping feel day or night that invites relaxation. Light oak flooring, a pale area rug, and a large, deep sectional sofa in a soft pale shade of gray create a cozy conversation area. If black sounds too intimidating, spend some time with a bunch of paint swatches in shades of what the French call "faux black," meaning shades of gray, blue, green, brown, and other neutrals that are so deep they almost look black while retaining a livable and sometimes more flattering softness, depending on the room and its orientation and natural light.

    Supersize Your Greenery

    living room decor ideas

    Design by Michelle Gerson Interiors / Photo by Patrick Cline

    This living room from Michelle Gerson Interiors has clean lines and a black-and-white palette, giving choice decorative accents like a recycled airplane wall hanging and an oversized fiddle leaf fig tree a chance to shine. While a jumble of plants always cheers up a room, a single oversized plant, tree, green wall, or other type of greenery can create added drama that works well in a minimalist or more sophisticated room.

    Mix Pink and Yellow

    living room decor ideas

    Fantastic Frank

    When it comes to pink, remember to think beyond blush tones and embrace the many shades of this crowd-pleasing and versatile color. In this serene living room from Fantastic Frank, warm pink walls, a plush rose-colored sofa, mustard accents, oversized lighting, and warm woods create a soothing and inviting ambiance with just a few well chosen elements.

    Place a Decorative Screen Behind the Sofa

    Design by Marie Flanigan Interiors / Photo by Julie Soefer

    Windows placed high on a wall can help flood a room with natural light, but they can also create an awkward feel when located above a seating area. To cheat the gap between the top of the sofa and to make this living room seating area feel more cozy, Marie Flanigan Interiors placed a multi-paneled decorative screen (otherwise known as a room divider) behind the sofa that creates a backdrop for the seating area and distracts the eye from the tall windows.

    Create Double Seating Zones

    living room decorations

    Design by Marie Flanigan Interiors / Photo by Julie Soefer

    In a large space, creating distinct zones multiplies the functionality of the room. In this living room from Marie Flanigan Interiors, a conversation area with comfortably overstuffed linen slipcovered armchairs is centered around a transparent table. On the other side, a larger seating area has a large sofa with its back to conversation area that is visually separated by a console table with table lamps on each end that helps balance light throughout the room. In addition to layout, you can help visually separate different zones with area rugs, room dividers, or plants.

    Add Dimension with Carved Wood

    living room decor

    Design by Alvin Wayne

    Finding ways to decorate around the TV so that it looks integrated into the decor rather than sticking out like an eyesore is always a challenge. In this New York City living room from interior designer Alvin Wayne, a long carved wood console adds storage and structures the wall housing the flat screen TV, which is finished in a rough and textural concrete-effect gray that adds dimension to the room and gives the eye something other than the TV to focus on when it's not in use.

    Hang Double Chandeliers

    living room decorations

    Design by Marie Flanigan Interiors / Photo by Julie Soefer

    If you've got a room with soaring vaulted ceilings that results in a giant volume of airspace overhead, hanging a decorative pendant light is an obvious choice to help bridge the space between the roof and the floor. But if the room is especially large, one light fixture might not be enough. In this spacious California living room from Marie Flanigan Interiors, a pair of decorative black metal chandeliers adds visual interest, helps balance the light in the room after dark, and draws the eye up to admire the exposed ceiling beams.

    To help fill the wall space behind a long sectional sofa, Leanne Ford Interiors layered two large-scale pieces of simple, unframed abstract black-and-white art that is in keeping with the neutral tones of the room. This informal approach to hanging art on the wall creates a casually chic vibe that's easier to compose and hang than a gallery wall.

    Skip the Curtains

    living room decor ideas

    Design by Cathie Hong Interiors / Photo by Margaret Austin Photo

    Curtains, drapes, and window shades can come in handy for privacy, light, and temperature controls. But if your windows are located out of sight from nosy neighbors, and especially if they are energy efficient and located in a non-south-facing room, you might decide to leave them naked instead. In this light and airy midcentury modern living room from Cathie Hong Interiors, a wall of windows creates an indoor outdoor feel and a private backyard removes the need for curtains. If light control is an issue, you can install custom automated window shades that won't interfere with the aesthetics of the architecture.

    living room decor

    Design by Leanne Ford Interiors / Photo by Tessa Neustadt

    There's no reason you have to hang a painting over the sofa or the fireplace. Displaying art in unconventional ways can help you pay more attention to it and create more of a dialogue between a piece of art and its surroundings. In this living room from Leanne Ford Interiors, a large unframed portrait is hung casually from a wall of bookshelves perpendicular to the fireplace, adding surprise and encouraging passersby to engage with the painting.

In this living room from Leanne Ford Interiors, a giant disco ball is placed among stacks of books on a console table in the window and behind the sofa, reflecting light, creating magical shadows, and providing the room with a natural conversation starter that will break the ice when guest drop by.
