Creative and New Furniture Designs for Your Living Room

By Simone Design Blog @HomeSpire

We no longer love classic hardwood furniture items that come in conventional brown colors. Today's modern homeowner is more focused on unusual materials as far as furniture is concerned. Metal, glass, brass, and even plastic are ingenious ideas that will completely change the general allure of your living room. Interior decorators advise us to play with color too, and not be afraid to mix materials.

The most popular room of a residence is the living area. It is the place where you welcome friends and family, so it has to look classy and inviting all the time. But what do you do when the furniture is starting to fade away? How do you make people feel relaxed? Here are some creative ideas of new furniture designs that will make your living area stand out.

Multipurpose couch

In many ways, the couch is the centerpiece of a living area. It has to feel comfortable and look enticing. The good news is we have a wide range of models available in the marketplace; the bad news is mass-produced furniture is of low-quality. What's our best alternative? Invest in handmade furniture items; this way you are sure that what you want to buy is of superb quality.

A multipurpose couch for example, does exactly what its name says. It has multiple purposes. It can be used as a regular sofa or it be transformed into a bed. Since we're talking about handmade furniture, you can talk to the designer and bring in your own ideas. Include more storage spaces, or maybe some side shelves. The crazier the idea, the better; your guests will be delighted to sit on the new couch, not to mention that your whole living area will benefit from a more modern and innovative vibe.

Glass furniture

Glass furniture is in trend. This material creates fluidity and it also reflects natural light, thus brightening your whole living room. As for furniture items made of glass, the options are endless. Console, side and coffee tables are common choices; a glass bookcase may seem a bit unusual, but the idea will definitely revamp your space and make it look more modern. As far as the design is concerned, the simplest models are the best. A curved coffee table made of sheer glass may be exactly what your space needs to exude freshness. This minimalistic item of décor works with any room design; so even if your living area is vintage-inspired, a glass table will still fit it perfectly.

Glamour

As proud owners of beautiful living rooms, we want our furniture and décor piece to scream opulence and glamour. There's nothing wrong with wanting to show off extravagant decorations. However, these must be matched beautifully with the furniture to make others feel comfortable. This season, opulent furniture that exudes lavishness is in high demand. That "wow" feeling is not easy to achieve. Victorian-inspired furnishings are the best. In spite of a rather old-fashioned allure, certain items have a royal allure you will absolutely adore.

Statement furniture

Make a statement with striking furniture pieces. Add drama into a rather boring living room with alternative items, such as armchairs and tables. All-white living areas need a pop of color. In this case, you could create drama with a deep yellow armchair. Place it by the window and the moment guests walk into the room, they'll remain speechless. Their attention will be pointed at the armchair. For some balance, place a vase with seasonal flowers on the coffee table. Make sure the colors are also yellow.

Today's hottest interior décor trends are all about pioneering furniture, bold colors and unusual color combinations. Whether you can afford to spend a lot on a complete makeover, or you just want to spice things up with as little as $100, the goal here is to wow guests; and you can do that without breaking the bank. Is your living room appearing boring lately? Do you want to make a change but don't know where to start? Have a look on the web and you'll be amazed with the variety of DIY projects, tips and ideas. Use them to add liveliness into your living area, and your friends and family will never stop coming to visit.
