Dwell Of Decor: 13 Breathtaking Modern Living Rooms That Will Blow Your Mind
There are a few characteristics that distinguish a living room
decorated in a modern style. Modern living rooms are usually painted
in neutral colors, such as white, beige, black or grey. This way, the
attention is drawn more to the furniture or other accessories.
Brighter, livelier colors are usually found on some details, such as
rugs or pillows. Shapes are also very important in achieving the look of
minimalism and simplicity that are distinctive in modern living rooms.
The
furniture is usually with clean simple lines, in angular forms.
Sometimes, the furniture can have a round shape, but it’s generally just
one piece, usually the coffee table. Modern living rooms have that
beautiful sleek and glossy appearance, thanks to the materials that are
used, such as linoleum, granite, concrete or lacquered hardwood for
flooring, and steel and chrome for furniture.
A lot of natural
light is also typical for a modern living room, and this is achieved by
large windows that allow sunlight to enter freely. Of course, artificial
lightning is just as important. Lights are usually subtle, mostly
unobtrusive ceiling lights or floor lamps with a soft glow that does not
attract a lot of attention, but fits beautifully in the complete design
of the room. Artwork and plants can also be added, which will give the
living room a softer warmer look and will create a more pleasant
atmosphere.
So basically, these are the main characteristics of a
modern living room. If you are thinking of redecorating your living
