Changing the decor is the best option to bring newness to the living room interior without resorting to a full-fledged renovation.
This is an opportunity to create an atmosphere and place accents even in those rooms where there has been no renovation for a long time. But to do everything with taste and refresh the living room, it is worth paying attention to the solutions used by designers.
Some of them are given in this article.
Paintings
Paintings are something that is always in fashion. If you love art and understand it at least a little, you can use paintings as decoration. Here you need to follow two rules.
The first one says: for classical interior styles, paintings painted in a classical style are selected. The second rule: for a modern interior, works painted in a modern style are selected.
Lighting
The market offers a huge number of lighting options, from strict chandeliers to decorative garlands. Even if you cannot change the interior itself (for example, you live in a rented apartment), then several correctly selected lamps will create a completely different atmosphere.
By the way, if there is a picture hanging on the wall, you should think about making a backlight for it. Candles will also add mystery and coziness. Don't forget about such a device as a floor lamp.
If it fits into the overall concept of the living room, it will become its real pearl. After all, this piece of furniture is not so often found in modern homes.
Calligraphy
Calligraphy is an original replacement for paintings, photo wallpapers and other "pictures" on the walls. This solution is especially suitable for rooms in the minimalist style.
Neon signs
Neon lettering is a bold solution that will look great in a living room decorated in a modern style.
Chandelier
No living room is complete without a chandelier. If you replace an outdated chandelier with a modern one, the interior will instantly transform.
Carpet
Like the chandelier, the carpet plays a significant role in the overall composition. Choose modern options. Monotone products or those with an abstract pattern look stylish. The shape can be any.
Armchair
If the sofa and armchairs are a set, it is not necessary to change them.
To refresh the composition, you can buy new chairs that will differ in color from the sofa. But they should have something in common with it. For example, the upholstery material, design. And the old chairs can be put in another room or transported to the dacha so that they will continue to perform their function for a long time.
Before you buy something new, make sure it will fit in your living room.
Nowadays, you can find many free online services and programs that make it easy to create interior models to see how a particular item will look in the overall composition of the room.
