Good Lifestyle

Decorating and developing your living room may seem easy work, but there is a reason why there are people like interior decorators and their skills should not be neglected. The purchase of a pile of furniture is not difficult, but make a nice room, comfortable and the most comfortable is not an easy feat. Today, let's talk about 10 errors we do most often in living room design.

1. Buy cool furniture and not use it.
We can all enjoy an elegant glass table or a sofa or a truly cool chair, but the purpose of these furniture is to use them. You can not just buy them and watch them. You must make sure that you feel comfortable and that they match your style and your home.

2. Stack all furniture along the walls.
When we talk about a closet, then sure, it belongs next to the wall. But when it comes to sofas, armchairs and tables - do not make it unless you live in a very small space. Putting your sofa away from the wall and closer to the center of the room instantly makes the space larger and more cozier.


3. Have a single source of light.
Based solely on overhead lighting is a common error. It might appear in the morning or in the middle of the day, when there is sunlight, but in the evening, this type of lighting can make a sinister room look like. The lighting is very important, it creates an atmosphere and a warm atmosphere. Make sure you have lights on the walls and buy some standing lamps for a good measure.


4. Show too many memories.
It is perfectly fine to have some pictures on the mantelece and some things you have reported at the house of a vacation, but it is not necessary to put all the shit that you have reported abroad. Nobody wants to see it and it will simply end up gathering the dust at the end.

5. Do not have enough room.
Minimalism is great, but you must be realistic with regard to the seats. You can not expect all your guests to be suitable for a sofa. Get some chairs or invest in multifunction furniture, such as a coffee table that can double as a bench. Think about how many people can install at your dining table - it's probably how many seats you need in the living room.


6. Do not have pillows.
If you want your living room to be comfortable, you can never have too much pillows. They are essentially magical when it comes to adding a splash of color and character and that they instantly make the sofa more comfortable and inviting. In addition, depending on their size, they could be useful when you have a lot of guests, you can simply throw them on the floor and sit on them.


7. Have curtains too short.
If you want your room to be balanced, you need curtains that will touch the ground. The length of the curtains may not appear on your priority list when decorating your living room, but it should be. The curtains too short will make the room smaller, clumsy and very unbalanced.


8. People images to the wrong height.
If you have paintings, you want to hang or maybe some family pictures that you want to display on your wall, it is important to hang them at the right height. You do not want them to be too high on the wall or too low, aim at the eye level, which is about 60 inches from the ground to the center of the paint or photo.
