12 ideas for designing your living room

All rooms in the house have a certain specific destination and I guess the living room is designed to bring the family together. If you bathe in the bathroom, cook in the kitchen and each person sleeps in their bedroom, all family members and guests stay together in the living room.

You can try a simple design with two sofas on opposite sides of the coffee table and a nice fireplace on the side with some bookcases near the wall. It shows a nice and cozy atmosphere both in winter and in summer and the flames of the fireplace will be both decorative and functional, warming up the place. The fireplace is always a good idea for the living room because it brings people together and makes your house a welcoming home.In some cases you can lose the coffee table and place the sofas and chair facing the fireplace.

If you don’t have a fireplace just make your coffee table the center of gravitation of the room, arranging all the furniture around it. If your house is situated in a beautiful area and you can admire gorgeous scenery from the living room window, it would be a great idea to benefit from it and use large front windows and also arrange the sofa to face the window, so that you and your guests can admire the view.
