ART OF LIVING

Good décor is in the details. Here are four living rooms that potray how architectural features, decorating strategies and accessories can turn dull rooms into awe-inspiring spaces.

 

HIGHER LIVING

Living rooms with high ceilings offer ample space for everything that truly matters, and then some. This room showcases how decorating features can enhance the space both horizontally and vertically.

TIP!
When dealing with high ceilings, feature walls are not just optional, they are a must. Why? Because they add a point of focus that ties the interior together.

COLOUR APPEAL
A minimalist living room can be just as ornate without objects. The trick is to use a palette of interesting shades and hues to engage the eye and create emotion.

TIP!
When decorating a space, divide the colours in the space into components of 60 percent of a dominant colour, 30 percent of a secondary colour and 10 percent of an accent colour.

DREAM THEME
Whether it’s Oriental, Modern or Eclectic, using a common stylistic theme to anchor your decorating plan can work wonders in the living room.

TIP!
To maintain a theme throughout a room, you don’t need big objects to do so. Little details here and there like a table runner, a doorknob or unique textures can help you bring together the theme.

CREATIVE CONTRAST
Turn your favourite furniture pieces and decorating elements into artistic features by using them as objects of contrast against a pristine white background. Wow factor guaranteed!

TIP!
Creating contrast can take the form of using different materials and shapes to provide textural variety and interesting features.
