Indulge in Moroccan style
Think outside the box, and turn your room into a cosy, Moroccan-inspired den by pulling together low sofas, cushions, rich colours and details such as this shaped doorway. Opting for shades such as teal and yellow stop the look from being too overdone..
Go bold with primary colours
Keep things simple and pair a modern white colour scheme with bold blocks of primary colours. Pick a maximum of two shades to play with, and keep the colours separate to break the room into zones – great if you have an open-plan living room and dining area..
Use tone-on-tone colour
Love a particular shade? Go all out and saturate the room with it, making sure to pick different tones to keep the room looking modern. A modular sofa like this one is great for family living rooms, along with the hardwearing woven flooring.
Add style with stencils
Stencils don’t have to be small and pretty – think big and cover an entire wall in a design, like this oriental-style willow motif. Pick colours from your favourite objects, like these blue and white patterned plates, then use them as the base colours for your walls, furniture and accessories.
Nod to oversized furniture pieces
Just because you have a traditional living room, doesn’t mean you can’t have fun with accessories. This cool, neutral room is livened up with a cool oversized lamp, which gives the room a surreal, 1950s feel.
Hang striking wall art
Pull together an open-plan kitchen and living room with carefully chosen wall art. Pick colours that complement your overall colour scheme, such as these black prints in neutral beige and chocolate tones, to make the artwork pop.
Choose bright, punchy colour
Use blocks of bright, punchy colour to liven up your room, especially if you’re blessed with high windows and ceilings. For a relaxed, fresh take on bright paint, don’t paint all the way up to the ceiling – leave a rough, uneven edge, like in this turquoise example.
Introduce geometric details
Geometric details can make a room shine – choose your accessories and furniture, such as these sofas and armchairs based on their clean, simple lines, for a streamlined look. The unusual angle of the ceiling in this room adds to the effect.
Go for statement stripes
Striped wallpaper is, of course, great for feature walls, but why not turn the trend on its head and instead of picking a vertical stripe, opt for a whole room of horizontal stripes instead? This bold look is finished perfectly with retro-style seating and lots of natural light.
