The living room is the very center of the house or apartment. Household members and guests gather in this room, spending family leisure time.

It is possible to furnish a living room in absolutely any style, this is influenced by the tastes and preferences of the owners and, of course, their financial well-being.

Living room interior materials

Professional designers offer a popular option for arranging a living room today - zoning the room.

It is not necessary to separate zones directly with a wall; you can break up the interior through different wall designs and lighting solutions.

We must not forget that all decorative elements should harmoniously complement each other, uniting the zones into a single whole.

The finishing of the wall surface is primarily responsible for the design of the room. There are many methods of wall treatment:

• Traditional wallpapering. A fashionable original solution is canvases that replicate the texture of wood, reed and similar materials.
• Wall treatment with Venetian plaster. This is an effective way to achieve individual style.
• Wall painting. The most exclusive way, but more financially expensive.

In a small living room, it is beneficial to decorate the walls with non-bright wallpaper without a large pattern, which will visually expand the room.

A living room is a living space in which people spend a lot of time, so the materials for its decoration must be completely safe and environmentally friendly, and not accumulate dust and unnecessary odors.

The best choice for flooring is natural wood (parquet flooring), which perfectly retains heat and gives a decent appearance to the room. It does not require special care.

Also, a good substitute for wood is laminate, which is much cheaper and lasts quite a long time.

But, when using laminate in the dining area, we must not forget that this type of flooring does not tolerate long-term interaction with liquid!

Furniture arrangement in the living room

When arranging a living room with furniture, the main goal is not to overload the space of the room. The distance between objects should be at least 80 centimeters.

If the living room area is large enough, it is advantageous to place the main pieces of furniture (chairs, sofa and coffee table) along the longest wall. This will make the room smaller and more comfortable.

The dining area should be located opposite the entrance opening.

In a small room it is advantageous to use sliding or folding furniture, which can be folded if necessary, saving free space.

Living room decoration

A modern stylish solution is the minimalist style, which uses functional, practical pieces of furniture, with the greatest preference given to glass and plastic surfaces.

Textile materials give the room comfort and coziness: soft carpets, pillows of various shapes, a warm blanket. Bright colors and small accessories in the form of figurines, vases, photo frames with family photographs and paintings will add sophistication.

The classic style traditionally does not lose its relevance in the living room setting.

Black and white combination of colors, warm beige and milky shades, light colors - these are the attributes of a luxurious living room in a classic style.

The most effective way to add elegance to a living room with a high ceiling is to hang a large, luxurious chandelier that will be a great eye-catcher.

The traditional way to decorate a living room is to use fresh flowers. They can be placed:

• in large floor vases;
• small elegant pots on the window;
• bouquets in a vase on a table, on a fireplace mantel or coffee table.

By using simple ways to furnish a living room, adhering to the individual preferences of the owner, it is possible to achieve maximum comfort for the household and pleasantly surprise guests with a perfectly equipped room!

The highlight of this interior, the designers made bright accents - vases with bouquets of roses and a bio-fireplace built into a niche of the accent wall with a black glossy finish. A luxurious chandelier in the Art Deco style attracts attention and adds a special charm to the living room interior. A white leather sofa and a black glossy table create a glamorous atmosphere and fully correspond to the image of the young girl for whom this project was designed.

Wallpaper in the interior of a living room can perform various functions: decorate, accentuate attention, zone, complement the color scheme. The modern market of finishing materials does not stand still and offers more original options and types of wall coverings. Continuous wallpapering of walls is practically not used in modern designer interiors of living rooms. But various decorative wallpaper inserts are widely used.

A striking feature of Art Deco style interiors is symmetry. All interior details are arranged according to a carefully thought-out scheme and look harmonious. In the example in the photo, the niche with the TV is symmetrically framed on both sides with decorative inserts from linkrusta wallpaper.

The original insert of linkrusta wallpaper, coated with golden paint, is in harmony with other details of the same tone in the living room. The symmetry characteristic of Art Deco is also preserved, emphasized by decorative columns on both sides of the insert, and sofa areas placed on both sides of the room.

In this review, we showed the most current trends of 2018 and the design features of living rooms. In the portfolio of the Fundament Group of Companies you will find other impressive interior design projects for kitchens, bedrooms, children's rooms and other areas of the apartment.

A modern living room is a place of attraction for all family members, the embodiment of a home. Here you spend your leisure time, celebrate holidays, and receive guests. The design of the space tells about tastes and hobbies, about the friendliness and cordiality of the owners. Therefore, creating the interior of a common room is a responsible and very interesting task.

Working on the design yourself or together with a professional, you will learn a lot about interior styles and be able to realize your creative ideas.

The article talks about how to make the main room in the house cozy and beautiful. To illustrate the proposed ideas, we have selected many examples - photos of a living room in an apartment.

Size and shape

According to design standards, the minimum area of ​​a common room is 16 square meters. In fact, its size depends on the size of the apartment. The larger the total area, the more spacious the living room.

We are accustomed to the rectangular plan configuration. Good aspect ratio 1:1, 1:1.25, 1:1.5. Such proportions are perceived harmoniously. Ratios of 1:1.75 and 1:2 are acceptable, but a more careful approach to zoning a room that is too elongated is required.

Additional opportunities for interesting organization of space arise if there is a bay window or a non-standard polygonal plan shape.

The most comfortable living room in a city apartment has an area of ​​24–30 square meters. meters, and its proportions tend to square.

Functional zoning

The interior of the living room in the apartment is shaped by the needs of the residents, so the common room is divided into several functional areas. Usually this is a sitting area with upholstered furniture, opposite which a TV monitor is placed. For family celebrations and receiving guests, a dining area with a dining table is located. In a studio apartment, it is logical to create a niche next to the kitchen.

Let's complement the decor with a transformable sofa in case your guest decides to spend the night. In the absence of a separate office, a folding workstation will help out. We will demonstrate the hobbies and activities of family members in the interior. A showcase with a collection of souvenirs brought from travels, an aquarium with fish, a gallery of paintings will take their place of honor.

It is important that the functional zones do not overlap. For example, if you got up from the table and went to the kitchen, then it is desirable that the path of movement does not intersect the trajectory of your gaze when watching television.

Living room with kitchen area

Many people find it convenient when the living room is combined with the kitchen. In fact, family members spend more time with each other, contemplation of cooking enhances the impression of home, and cooking together strengthens relationships.

You can select a cooking area in different ways:

• Arranging furniture. Place an island of work equipment or a bar counter along the common border of the kitchen and dining room.
• Structural element. Divide the space using narrow partitions or a plasterboard portal.
• The difference in heights of horizontal planes. Raise the floor level two steps and the home chef will feel like a star on stage. Or, on the contrary, lower the ceiling height, giving intimacy to the kitchen niche.
• Various finishing materials. Lay parquet or laminate on the floor, and ceramic tiles near the kitchen equipment. Do the same with the ceiling. For example, you can make a tension fabric in the center, and drywall above the kitchen area. Play with the color and texture of the coatings.
• Lighting. Built-in lamps visually separate the kitchen niche with a directed flow of light. At the same time, the physical and stylistic unity of the room is preserved.

A kitchen-living room in an apartment requires increased demands on the aesthetic properties of the kitchen unit. Give preference to ready-made high-class design solutions or order an individual design. Choose your hood with special care so that culinary aromas do not become a source of unpleasant sensations.

The living room in a one-room apartment at the same time serves as a living room. It is extremely important to rationally organize the space here.

Use transformable furniture: extendable sofas and chairs, reclining tables, folding workspace.

Divide the room into sleeping and entertaining areas using a translucent partition screen.

Do this by arranging your furniture. For example, place a small sofa and bed back to back. You will turn your visitors' eyes away from the sleeping place, and the company will be able to communicate freely. Use narrow open shelving to divide the space.

To isolate the sleeping area, arrange differences in floor levels.

If you want to increase the perceived volume, and the designs allow this, combine the kitchen and living room into a common living room with a cooking area.

Design selection

The style of the living room in the apartment is determined by the overall artistic concept of your home. The most representative room should be given a little more respectability than the rest.

Use classic space design techniques, placing the main interior elements on the axes of symmetry. Pay attention to the perspective view point from your hallway. When a guest arrives, he will immediately receive a pleasant impression, noticing out of the corner of his eye a beautiful corner of the living room in the doorway.

The interior will look good in classic and neoclassical, art deco. Shabby chic is suitable for sophisticated natures. Provence style will help you forget the bustle of the city.

For a one-room apartment and a studio, a minimalist solution in a Scandinavian or Japanese style would be appropriate. The sterility of high-tech, industrialism and roughness of the loft are good for them.

Follow your views about comfort and aesthetic preferences in shaping the design.

Selection of materials

The choice of finishing materials depends on the stylistic decision. The use of different colors and contrasting textures helps to visually highlight functional areas and adds expressiveness to the design of the living room in the apartment.

The materials used should maintain stylistic unity and at the same time emphasize the main elements of the interior. Pay attention to the hygienic and environmental properties of the finish, and its fire safety.

Most often, laminate, parquet or solid boards are used for flooring. If there is a kitchen area - ceramic tiles. In a corner with upholstered furniture, it is appropriate to put a nice rug under your feet. To decorate the walls, choose wallpaper, artistic plaster, photo frescoes, and fantasy panels that suit the style.

Stretch fabrics and decorative ceiling tiles are good for decorating ceilings. To design differences in room height, drywall is used.

For a holistic perception of design, window design is important. Whether it will be light translucent curtains or heavy curtains with lambrequins determines the chosen style. Minimalism loves straight lines, classics love complexity. For the Provence style, floral motifs are suitable; the loft style accepts blinds.

Lighting

Living room design ideas can be diversified using different lighting scenarios.

• The central chandelier sets a bright festive mood in the entire room.
• Use local light sources for individual functional areas.
• By lowering the lamps low over the dining table, you will focus attention on the beautiful serving and mouth-watering dishes.
• To read books, place sconces or floor lamps next to the sofa.
• The kitchen area can be separated by directed beams of spotlights. It is advisable to arrange local lighting above the working surface.
• Linear and spot LED lamps located in special niches will help emphasize differences in the levels of the suspended ceiling. With general lighting turned off, they will give the interior a more intimate character.
• Decorative niches with artifacts, a collection of paintings on the wall can be made active elements of the interior using local lighting.

The design of light sources is subject to the general concept of the chosen style.

As you can see, the beauty of your living room depends only on your imagination. The embodiment of ideas is possible under any financial circumstances thanks to a wide selection of materials and design items.

Designing a small room is always a challenge for a designer. After all, here we are talking not only about creating an interesting interior, but first of all about making the interior not just beautiful, but ergonomic, comfortable in absolutely everything. And, of course, you want to avoid this unpleasant feeling, as if the walls are “pressing” on you: the room, despite its small size, should still seem spacious. This is exactly what we will talk about today - how to create the right design for a small living room.

Interior of a small living room - light walls

In any small room, it is better to paint the walls in light, light shades like beige or light gray. Thanks to this technique, the room will seem larger, and beautiful modern furniture will come to the fore.

Interior design of a small living room - choosing a sofa

For the interior of a small living room, a low sofa is best suited. Place a seemingly weightless coffee table with a glass top on an aluminum frame in front of the sofa. However, solid wood will also look good.

Complete the interior with pieces of furniture or accessories made of transparent acrylic or on thin “legs”, which visually take up virtually no space and give the room a modern look. Coffee tables, bookshelves, desks, even acrylic plant pots are easy to find in stores. Next to your reading chair, place a floor lamp with a clear acrylic base and a black or white lampshade.

Interior of a small living room - mirrors

Hang a mirror above the sofa to make the room appear larger. A mirror with a silver metal frame or even a frameless one will do the job perfectly, and it will also add a modern touch to the interior. And different-sized mirrors of round or oval shape can be interestingly grouped to form an entire composition.

Opt for an accent color that will brighten up the neutral color scheme of the entire room. Scatter bright throw pillows around the sofa and place an eye-catching rug on the floor. Place a large glass vase of sunny yellow tulips on the coffee table. There are many options, as well as bright colors.

Bright colors for the living room in a small apartment

The most suitable colors for the design of a small living room are blue, green, orange and yellow. Cool shades of blue and green may seem too pale, but pastel shades of the same colors will create the perfect spring atmosphere. Warm orange and yellow, depending on the intensity of the color, will give the interior either a calm and cozy mood, or will charge the room with energy. Pink color can also be used to design a small living room, but in small quantities and not very bright, unless you really, really like this color.

Combination of green and orange for a small living room

Walls painted in different colors can always “revive” the design of a small living room. By painting one wall, you will create a bright accent; If you want to paint all the walls at once, which is also possible, think about a more neutral color scheme for furniture and accessories.

Small living room design in neutral colors with a separate painted wall

Another interesting technique is to use a combination of different color palettes, for example, combining a cool shade of walls with a warm shade of furniture. In this way you can create an unusual creative environment.

The combination of warm and cold shades in the interior of a small kitchen-living room

In general, the bright interior of a small living room is by no means a taboo. A carpet in loud colors and decorative pillows in cheerful shades will refresh the room and improve your mood. And the best thing is that these decorative elements can be put away in the closet at any time and replaced with others that best suit your mood at the moment.

Sofa in the interior of a small living room

What's a living room without a sofa, right? This is the central element of every living room; the arrangement of all other pieces of furniture will “dance” from the location and configuration of the sofa. But when choosing a sofa for a small living room, you must, of course, take into account its size: choose two or three-seater models, no more. However, multi-seat corner sofas, despite their bulkiness, can be very useful in terms of zoning space, especially in studios.

Who among us has not tripped over a table in front of the sofa? How often this happens depends on how comfortable a person will feel in the room. Properly organized space plays a big role for our comfort, therefore, when planning the interior design of a small living room, pay attention to maintaining a distance of at least 60 cm between individual pieces of furniture. This is as important as the visual balance in the room. It is better to choose small-sized furniture.
