This place is very important because we spend the most time there. We cook there, make and drink morning coffee, have meals, watch TV, gather with our family and friends, read something, and do many other daily activities. That’s why this space deserves your attention.
Before you design and decorate this place, make a list of what you want to have there, what colors you like, what your favorite material is, etc. Then you can make the concept, which can include:
- Colors; your space must have one basic color. That color will be presented in all areas.
- Material; When you combine wood with furniture, try to contrast.
This is an example of the modern living room. White color is dominant here. Wood is the same almost everywhere. So this room has its own concept.
