The past year has shaped the way many people view their home living room. It’s no longer just a comfortable place to host guests, watch TV, or curl up with a book. It’s now a multifunctional space for kids to play, adults to work, and the entire family to sit, relax, and spend time together. Here are some living room furnishing trends to be aware of if you’re feeling the need to upgrade your home living room to meet your current and future needs.
Homey TV Stands with an Electric Fireplace
A quick peek at the most popular entertainment centers for 2021 reveals two important things. First, classic wood designs are trending this year as homeowners look to create a warm, livable atmosphere in the living room. Second, electronic fireplaces are in style. It’s not hard to see why; these cozy fireplaces not only warm up a room on a chilly day but also create a cozy ambiance. Closet & Storage Concepts specializes in custom-made entertainment centers, and we can create one with the perfect blend of convenience and style to suit the needs of any living room.
Go Bold
Neutral, pastel colors are out. Tie-dyed patterns, floral patterns, and bold hues are in. Now is the time to create a bright, energetic atmosphere in your living room by investing in bold couches with attention-grabbing patterns. Alternatively, you may want to go with subdued furnishings and bold paint colors to add vibrancy to the space. Some particularly popular bold colors for the living room walls this year include orange, bluish-green, rustic green, and dark blue.
Go Natural
Nature offers the soothing, peaceful ambiance that’s been a lifeline for many in the past year, so it’s not surprising that homeowners from all walks of life are actively looking for ways to bring nature into their living spaces. Thankfully, it’s not hard to do. It could be as simple as bringing in some large plants and buying a hand-woven wool area rug. Alternatively, you can go all out and paint the living room an earth tone and invest in natural stone flooring. The natural look has long been considered classy and the trend is set to remain in place for the foreseeable future.
Every living room is different and there is no “one size fits all” style that is better than all others. Even so, living room decor trends for this year offer great ideas for any homeowner looking to upgrade living room space and create an enjoyable area for the whole family to enjoy.
