Creating creative living rooms

 Your living room should be arranged to suit your personality and taste. Living room design varies from home to home depending on the purpose. Some people use their living rooms as showrooms to entertain visitors or simply for family gathering. Arranging and decorating your living room needs that extra effort to make it stand out. You need to pay attention to your walls, rugs, tiles, curtains, furnitures and other things you want in your home. Complement should be your watchword


Here are quick tips to help you arrange your living room

Establish your focal point, its an area in the room that deserves attention such as the fireplace, television or artwork


                                     

Establish the major part of the room and arrange furnitures accordingly. If your living room is small then it is better you rest your furnitures on the wall.  Where you have a spacious living room then arrange furniture in a particular space to aid conversation

Leave room for free movement; create enough space for people to walk around furnitures. If your living room is large you may decide to arrange a coffee table

Get side tables to ensure comfort  if centre table is not within reach put one on each side of the sofa if there is space. Side tables should be the same length with the arm of the chair to ensure easy access




Accessorize the living room with throw pillows, artwork and vases

Complement colours resist the urge to match colours; your curtains, rugs, furnitures, artwork should complement one another
