Defining Your Living Room's Vibe: The Essentials
Kickstart your space with a signature piece that sets the tone for the entire room. For a touch of Hollywood glamour, consider the Howard Collection's upholstered pieces, such as the Howard Sofa or the stripped-down elegance of the Eames Lounge and Ottoman.
A centerpiece-worthy coffee table is an investment piece that anchors your living room and ties the entire space together. Restoration Hardware's expansive selection ranges from three-leg sculpted beauties like the Jute Coffee Table to industrial-style stunners such as the Pipe Coffee Table.
Laying the Groundwork: Area Rugs and Wall Finishes
Start with a rug that anchors the room and sets the color palette. Restoration Hardware's offerings include a dazzling array of textures and patterns, from vintage kilims to sumptuous Moroccan boujaad rugs. Choose a size that accommodates your seating arrangement and defines the space.
Don't overlook the transformative power of wall finishes. From distressed leather and horsehide to textured throws and wall coverings, these accessories bring depth and tactile interest to your living room. Opt for art or a gallery wall curated from Restoration Hardware's extensive selection to add a personal touch.
Lighting Up Your Living Room
Create a warm and inviting atmosphere with a layering approach to living room lighting. Start with a statement pendant or chandelier, such as the and iron and marble Bowery Pendant, to establish a dramatic focal point. Supplement this with table lamps, like the Industrial BronzeEclectic Table Lamp, for task and torso illumination, and don't forget the ambient glow of floor lamps for those cozy movie nights.
Crave that perfect reading nook or need a designated spot for binge-watching? Create a/enclosed space with a drum or armless chair or sidecar-style sofa paired with a floor lamp and accent table. Restoration Hardware's convenient swivel and floor lamp combinations make it easy to find the ideal setup.
Cohesive Style: Eclectic Mix masters and Classic autocomplete
Whether you gravitate toward clean lines and minimalism or embrace the art of the mix, Restoration Hardware offers an expansive range of styles to suit every taste. Channel the timeless elegance of the Parisian-inspired Curated Outdoor Living collection or embrace the rugged, outdoorsy appeal of the Cabana Collection.
Fearless eclecticism is the key to creating a living room that feels collected and curated over time. Balance sleek, modern pieces with vintage-inspired finds and malignancies toasting touches to create a space that is sophisticated yet inviting.
Textures, Patterns, and Accent Pieces
Abundant textures and patterns breathe life into a living room, turning simple spaces into masterfully layered retreats. From plush chenille pillows and velvet-upholstered sofas to metallic-accented credenzas and eye-catching wallpaper, there's a world of possibilities at Restoration Hardware.
Embrace the beauty of imperfection with naturally finished wood furniture, rustic-chic metal accent pieces, or artisanal glassware and ceramics. Carefully curated accessories – from candles and vases to trays and decorative objects – bring that final touch of irreverent charm to your space.
Entertaining with Ease: Sideboards and Dining Solutions
If you find yourself hosting guests often, consider incorporating a sideboard or credenza into your living room design. From mid-century modern styles to industrial-chic pieces, Restoration Hardware's offerings provide abundant storage space and a dedicated surface for displaying decorative objects and serving buffet-style meals.
For a more flexible seating arrangement, opt for a modular sofa or sectional with a sleeper sofa, which transforms easily from a family room to a guest accommodations. Pair with a penetrating dining table that can be expanded as needed, such as the Henry dining table with an extension leaf.
