Remixing your living room for the New Year

Another year bites the dust and a new one is about to take its place! If you are making new year resolutions, make sure you add ‘Revamping my living room’ to the list. Let a spirited mix of colours, texture and materials guide you to an exciting new vibe for your living space. Here are some suggestions for you:

— Tread the Mix-and-Match colour path:

If you are opposed to the idea of a different arrangement, then good news for you! A piece of furniture like a modular sofa will facilitate putting together variety of shades and textures within the same seating arrangement. For example, bright colours like red or yellow can be sprinkled within the plain shade of the sofa. This is the way to liven up the living room with sheer simplicity.

— Mixing up the materials:

It’s not just colours that can be mixed up. Mixing mismatched materials is an idea as good as it is trendy. For example, bring together a contemporary leather sofa and a print sofa into your living room. The calculated contrast between the plain shade of the leather sofa and its more colourful companion is sure to brighten up your space. Try to avoid two pieces of furniture with similarly bright shades.

— Add colourful accessories to your mix:

Living room accessories are a great way to draw different pieces furniture together. For example, if you have opted for two mismatched sofas, pick a couple of colours found in one or both sofas and coordinate the rest of the room around them. Throw pillows and artwork can serve this purpose quite efficiently. The difference between the sofas can be wider based on your eclectic taste and thus you can revamp the tone of your living room.

— A bold chair to your rescue:

As beautiful and functional as a large sofa may be, it is natural for your taste to change. But you might find yourself in a bit of a bind when you feel the need to compensate for the sofa’s lost charm. This is where a chair with a bold colour is useful. In stark contrast to the sofa, this chair can sprinkle a whole new look to your living room. If at any point in time the chair loses its charm, you can just move it out of the room and bring in something new…… instead of facing a cumbersome scenario with the large sofa.
