Living Room Interior Design



There are so many different ways to redecorate your living room. It is one of the rooms in the house where you have lots of leeway. One of the first things you want to do when redesigning the living room is to choose a paint color because everything else, the lighting, the furniture and the decorations are going to revolve around the walls. If you are looking to make the interior lighting a dimmer light then you should make the room a lighter darker color to enhance the lighting. If you want a nice bright sunny room then you may want a lighter wall shade.

The furniture should also reflect the lighting and the ambiance of the room. For example if you want the room a lighter shade then you may want to have the tables a light color or a lacquer surface, if you are going for wood then the darker the wood if the room is to be darker and vice versa for lighter rooms. If you want floor lamps and table lamps try contemporary styles. The older styles like Victorian tend to be darker colors.




If you are redesigning the room on your own then it will be only you deciding how the room is going to look. You have to be prepared because you are doing it your self you aren?t going to know or have an idea of how the room is going to come out until it is done. When you have an interior designer they can give you an idea of what the room is going to look like. They can sketch it out for you. So choose your colors wisely. Choose the furniture you know you want because it is easier to repaint than it is to return furniture and get different pieces.

Choose your lighting based on the overall picture of the room. If you are choosing blinds or curtains make sure they match the lighting. Blinds are pretty universal they match with anything. Curtains you want to match with the paint as well as the lighting of the room.
