Barn Door

Consider swapping out a hinged door for a barn door. It frees up some space and it created a more unique atmosphere.

Don’t waste your money on chairs.

In a perfect living space for entertaining, we don’t want anyone to feel secluded and we want conversation for flow freely amongst our friends and family. Instead, invest in an oversized section that is big enough that everyone can still have their own personal space.

Create a “Gallery Wall.”

Pick out your favorite pictures with your friends and families and get them printed out. Put them in coordinating picture frames and let your memories be the art! Such a cozy, personal touch to any room.

Connect the room to your geographic location.

This is an especially good idea if your friends and family live in different states and coming to visit you feels like a bit of a getaway for them. You can incorporate elegant dainty statues of local wildlife, popular plants in your area, etc. The idea is creating the theme of the room based on your geographic location.

Find the right balance between formal and casual.

You want the room to be comfortable while also still having touches of elegance. You can do this in many ways but one of our favorites is adding elegance through the end tables.

Go luxe and modern.

You can’t go wrong with an all-white modern looking living space. This is a great option if you are looking to add in pops of color and bold decorative accents.

Don’t be afraid to add multiple different colors to the room.

This brings life and personality to the room. Obviously, you don’t want to pick two different colors that clash i.e. Just use your best judgment and make sure the colors communicate well with each other and the overall feeling you are trying to convey in the room.

Add antiques.

You don’t have to searching for expensive antiques. But if you are out and about and have the extra money to splurge a little then consider investing in a nice antique piece. It can be the focal point of the room and also a conversation starter.
