In this post we bring you the best tricks and ideas to find the key and make the most of the meters of your apartment. It is still the center of the house, and the most visible place; the space for family gatherings, relaxation, communication. Discover the best practical solutions to decorate the living room and thus gain light, space and comfort from a perfect decoration.

The sofa

In the living room, everything begins and ends with the sofa. It is the central piece of furniture both for its volume and its functionality and also a totem in terms of decoration. But it can also be the biggest nuisance. To prevent it from becoming a problem, the requirements of the space should come before choosing a particular model, if it does not fit perfectly.

Harmony

The upholstery should be in harmony with the color of the wall to "consume" less visual space and generate an order that articulates the rest of the decoration of the room. The accessories and ornamental elements can be in the complementary color, to enhance the nuances.

Placing the sofa against the wall is always a good idea to avoid flow behind the backrest that can generate a feeling of discomfort. In addition, if the living room is narrow, it will be the best way to make the most of it and free up the maximum space in the central area

Comfort and aesthetics

In armchairs and sofas, a low backrest, although more aesthetic, will be less comfortable to sit on. In terms of hardness, it is similar. For sitting, the more rigid foam or pocketed springs are recommended, while for lying down the soft feather ones are an ideal solution.

Cushions are the best ally of white walls. They give quality to the decoration and warmth to the space. The reddish ones will warm up the room, but if we use them reversible we can change the "temperature" just by turning them.

Clarity

The windows are the natural entrance of light, which, being sieved, besides illuminating, decorates. Translucent curtains, together with dense fabrics, allow us to play with light and shadow and achieve incredible effects.

Separate by enlarging

If we need to divide the space, using a half-height storage module as a separating element is the option that will allow you to gain space, by providing functionality to the partition, at the same time that it will allow us to create a new space. to the partition, while generating sufficient permeability to provide continuity.

If there is a fireplace, it should be the center of the room. However, giving it prominence does not imply placing all the furniture in front of it, but taking the fireplace as a reference point from which to articulate the rest of the elements in the form of an arc, circle or rectangle.

Not only white is not the only color to live with

White is the color of spaciousness, but ochers and earths also have the property of multiplying the meters. They also add visual comfort, harmony and a decorative plus by changing according to the intensity of the light they receive, acquiring greenish or bluish tones.

Healthy colors

Paints can be a source of emissions of substances harmful to health that we can easily avoid. The healthiest formulations that can be found on the market are base silicate clay paints. These are the only ones suitable for all types of allergies and asthma.

Play of reflections

As we said, white is the color that most reflects light -up to 80%-, but there is another tone that follows closely: yellow, along with beige and sand. Combine these four colors when decorating your living room and you will get a brighter space. Follow this pattern: space in sand and white sofas that gain brightness with cushions in beige and yellow, linen and velvet. A game of warm tones reminiscent of sunlight.

Two atmospheres

If the dining room is integrated next to the living room, it is advisable, if there is a gradient of natural lighting, to place the sofa and the rest or audiovisual area in the shaded area, and the dining table in the more illuminated area, which naturalizes the act of eating.

The TV to one side

The TV should never condition the organization and decoration of the entire living room. Avoiding it being the center does not mean that it should be hidden, but neither should it be on a pedestal. Taking advantage of the possibilities of rotation of most screens is the key to expand the position options.

If we raise, at least, the sofa and the walls in neutral tones, we will have very easy to release new living room every so often, with very little effort and at minimal cost. By simply changing the fabrics, such as cushions, curtains and plaid, we can achieve a surprising general facelift.

Virtuous corners

The corners between columns, beams or under stairs are dead zones that, with a little attention you can make very alive. Custom-made storage furniture made of plasterboard is the most effective and economical solution to make the most of the living room decoration.

Size XL

It is as important to take advantage of small spaces as it is not to waste large ones. To do so, the key is to create different areas with their specific functions. A decorative style that provides continuity while clearly differentiating each environment is necessary for it to be integrated.

In&Out

If the living room overlooks a terrace or patio, you can make the most of it by communicating the interior and exterior with an enclosure that allows to join them, and thus, with good weather, the living room will double its surface. Using a reverberation of materials inside-outside will generate the necessary continuity.
