Whether you just moved into a new home or simply want to refresh your existing one, décor is the key to making your living space feel comfortable and relaxing when life gets overwhelming. Some of the newest décor trends can make your home more harmonious and cosier. The following are just a few simple, but powerful ideas that will make going back home the most favourite part of your day.
Create Your Relaxation Corner with an Armchair
While designer ottomans are trendy, yet timeless home décor pieces, designer armchairs are all of that, plus the most personal seating solution you can find in a home. An armchair is a single-seater with armrests, comfy and visually appealing, and an important decorative element.
A designer armchair can bring sophistication to your living room, but it’s not exclusive to this room only. You can add an armchair to your bedroom or your dressing room for a pop of colour. Also, an upholstered armchair is a great way to bring colour and vintage style to your dining room.
More traditional armchairs are still very popular and can fit vintage and modern style homes, you can find vast options for contemporary spaces as well. You can find a designer armchair raised on legs, which creates a sense of light and space and is a great addition to both modern and contemporary home interiors.
It’s a bold accent to brighten a dull corner and a perfect finishing touch to living room seating, a cosy place where you can curl up with a book or peaceful point from which to gaze out the window on a rainy day. An armchair is a highly versatile piece of furniture that can have many different functions in your home, but most importantly, it can add personality and unique touch to your home décor.
If you want to make a statement, you can couple a matching pair of designer armchairs. However, two armchairs don’t necessarily have to match. Feel free to mix and match your armchairs and create an environment with style and modernity. Velvet armchairs carry an unparalleled aura of elegance and sophistication, while wooden armchairs are the ultimate decorative elements and a great addition to large rooms.
Increase the Comfort with Decorative Cushions
Cushions are some of the most popular home accessories. They are at the top of the decorating game and a great way to add depth to your home interior. They can make your place more comfortable and when carefully selected, decorative cushions can pull the room together and give a polished look to your home interior.
The idea behind decorating with cushions is to add personality to your home interior and create a stylish and coordinated look. A set of cushions can easily become an accent piece in your living room or bedroom, but also it can add some extra comfort, so you can relax after a long day. You can choose decorative cushions that will create a subtle theme throughout your home based on colour or pattern and actualise your style.
Always opt for quality materials and patterns that you like and feel free to mix and match your cushions on your living room sofa or in your bedroom. You can experiment with textures as it’s one of the most effective ways to successfully decorate with cushions. Using the same texture across all of the designs in your arrangement can come across as boring and by introducing different fabrics to the mix, you can create a deep textual effect and highlight the beauty of each piece.
If you want to add a modern touch to your home décor, choose cushions with soft fill and pile them up in the corner of your sofa or armchair. To achieve a more casual tone, go with an uneven number of cushions, but try not to overdo it. You can even take your decorating game a step further and use a corner in your home that doesn’t serve any purpose and turn it into a cosy reading nook.
Add Warmth to Your Living Space with Floor Rugs
Rugs are powerful designer tools and have been used since ancient times. Their main purpose was to create a soft texture underfoot and/or protect the floor. Homeowners loved decorating with rugs because of the freedom they give to lay plenty of furniture over the top. But these days it’s more about minimalism and aesthetics and modern rugs are designers’ favourites thanks to the relaxed, easy vibe they lend to any space.
A rug can act as a complementary background for the rest of the décor or as artwork for the floor. The main purpose of using rugs in your home décor is to infuse the entire space with personality, style and warmth. You can choose from a wide range of modern rugs and select the one that suits your style and preferences. They come in many different sizes, patterns and colours, suitable for different areas of your home.
To create a cosy atmosphere in your home, choose a rug that complements the texture and tones of the furnishings in your home. If the walls and the furniture in the room you are decorating are solid colours, then a patterned rug is a great choice to bring it all together in a seemingly effortless way. But if the room is already full of patterns and colours, it’s a good idea to choose a rug in neutral hues to create a balance between all the elements.
Maybe you’ve never thought about it, but a carefully placed rug can make the whole difference in a room. Most often the rug is placed in the centre of the room, which adds softness to the entire space, however, if you want to separate certain areas in a room, then you can use more rugs to define each one of those areas.
