The living room is a place for rest and relaxation, a cosy room in the winter with a glowing fire and if you are planning a renovation, here are a few interior design trends that are popular in 2025.
- Bold lighting – You can buy floor arc lamps online and make this a statement piece; you need to have general lighting, task lighting and illuminate features with accent lighting. Ground level LED lights are next generation, ideal for the minimalist look. Spotlights on ceiling tracks offer a range of lighting options; use warm light for the right ambience.
- Vibrant colour – Rich colour adds depth and with high contrasts, you have a visually appealing living room; comfort is one aspect we shouldn’t overlook, certainly not at the expense of looks. Art Deco is one of the most popular styles this year in the UK; bold colours, geometric shapes, shiny surfaces make for a vibrant ambience.
- Cottage-style – A rural look with pale blue and white, pine bookshelves and rattan furniture; a couple of large wicker baskets and dried grass completes the look. If you are looking for a living room renovation contractor, Google has you covered, ask a local company to drop by and you can discuss design and cost.
- Antiques – Mixing old and new is all the rage in 2025, if you have a modern living room, why not add a couple of Victorian chairs? Edwardian wall lamps are another way to mix old with new, or a large military chest goes well with a contemporary setting.
- Statement seating – A leather Chesterfield sofa and armchairs would make for an ideal seating statement; you might prefer a large L-Shaped sofa that seats 6 people. The best place to find affordable living room furniture is with the online supplier and they are running specials all the time.
- Textures – Velvet upholstery, thick rugs and even hessian wallpaper can be incorporated to create a textured look. Colours and textures can be combined to produce something special, with an Art Deco style that works well with textures.
