Simple Cozy Living Room Design Ideas

Creating a welcoming atmosphere in your living room is enjoyable, yet challenging. We all wish to have a cozy, inviting, yet modern and functional living room, a place where we spend most of our time left over from job of all kinds. Turning this precious room into a cozy one helps a lot with our mood and energy. If you want that warm feeling in your home, take a simple approach and apply the basics: use neutral colors, go with simpler furniture, make use of accessories, and pay attention to lighting. Colors and layout of a room are the heart of designing, and there are millions of ideas out there. Choose the ones according to your taste and get ready to settle in the cozy atmosphere.

Start with grouping, and by that I mean all sorts of grouping. Arrange the seating area by placing the seating group together; that way you do not have to sit far apart  – that’s one of the rules of coziness (no one likes yelling from one side of the room to the other). In addition, group similar objects together. So not only will you have a more organized space, but you will also obtain a more orderly environment. Pay attention though, we are not trying to create a space where it feels like in an office. This order should feel homey, in the sense that the room should not be untidy and messy.

Place the pillows, for example, together on the couch and also the bigger ones on the floor (that will be an addition to seating area). Put your books together in the same corner of the room, or place them in a rustic library for instance, and you’ll see the difference in the ambiance instantly.

And while we are on the topic of books: decorate with them. Books give such a cozy feeling and change the atmosphere of the room. If you are not passionate about reading, you can use a stack of books as a coffee table – you don’t need that many. Just put together a few of them and voila; you’ve got yourself a sweet coffee table. Alternatively, you can use them to place your family or group pictures or even a little lamp on. Just try to be creative, but do not go overboard. Your creativeness should reflect your taste, as well as the feeling you’re seeking.

Lighting is the essence of decorating, so use floor lamps and/or table lamps to define the aesthetics of the room. Go with warm lights instead of bright white ones so that you can avoid that cold, hospital-like feeling.

Use accessories like paintings and portraits and group them together on the same wall. Another accessory that creates the ultimate coziness is decorative throw blanket. This indispensable item, together with pillows, creates that warm feeling we’re looking for.

Another item that is frequently overlooked is rugs. Rugs definitely complete the decoration and lend a classic yet modern feeling. Try not to choose the same colors as your seating area, and pick rather different colors without creating too much of a contrast.

These basic touches will surely change the whole atmosphere of your living room.
