The living room is typically the centre of any home, where we gather to relax and unwind with friends and family. When designing a living room, you must create a place that serves both practical and aesthetically pleasing purposes. This guide will walk you through our best ideas for decorating yours.

Start with your base - Selecting your rug first sets the tone of your space. It defines the area, the style and colour direction.

Take a seat - your sofa should be comfortable and create a welcoming feeling. The shape of your sofa and the fabric selection also impacts the overall effect of the room.

A feature armchair creates seating flexibility in a space, all whilst including another form to ensure the space has visual interest.

The 'finishing touches' are what can tie a space together.
