So, let’s make it an exciting place to be with these living room furniture ideas that are sure to inspire you! Then, we’ll give you more tips throughout the year to change things up again during these stay-at-home times. But, for now, enjoy these ideas!
Rearrange to See What Works
If the furniture in your living room hasn’t seen any other spot in the house since you moved in, then it’s time to switch things up. Try moving your sofa to a different wall that’s in a drastically different spot than it used to be. Or, if you have two couches in your home, switch their locations! This is a great (and free) tip that’ll give you something to do while you’re stuck at home.
Let the Walls Have Their Space
The most common living room set up involves all furniture sitting close to the walls surrounding a large carpet and small coffee table. What’s worse is that you have to go and reach a mile every time you want to pick up your drink. This can make the room feel too large and divided. Get off the wall and arrange your furniture closer to the centre of the room. This set-up creates better conversations and closes the gap in the centre of the room. You’ll be grabbing your drink with ease!
Add Colour with Monochromatic Accents
For a more cohesive look, pick one colour and stick to it! All furniture can stay neutral, while accents like pillows, blankets, and flowers can add the colour. Even if accents have different patterns, they’ll always match when they're within the same colour palette. Once you’re sick of those colours, trade them in for different ones – it’s that easy!
Double Up on Certain Pieces
Symmetry is a beautiful thing in home décor. You won’t want everything in your house to be symmetrical or it may look a little frightening. But a few repeated pieces here and there never hurt and allows your space to feel organized and cohesive. So, try adding a pair of side chairs or a set of wall lights on either end of the sofa for a balanced-out space.
Allow Your Space to Do More Than Just Watch TV
Your living room is more than just a place to watch TV; it’s a place to read, do crafts, eat, enjoy a coffee, etc. Utilize the space by adding a small table and two chairs for a small dining area or add a console and office chair for a home office!

Emphasize One Piece of Furniture
Just because your living room is small does not mean you have to have small furniture. Try emphasizing one large piece of furniture like an L-shaped sofa or a shelf that commands the room. These end up offering you more seating and space!
Rethink Your Standard Coffee Table
The good old classic coffee table! But did you know it doesn’t have to be the old, standard, rectangular coffee table? Change things up by grouping together two or three side tables or even using an ottoman with a tray! Shop ottoman’s and side tables on our website today!
