Living Room Trends For 2019

In my opinion, the most important room in the house has just got to be the living room. It’s the one place where we spend most of our time as a family – either watching television together, playing card games, entertaining guests or just relaxing with a cup of tea and some biscuits. I think it would be safe to say that the living room is most definitely the hub of our home!

With the living room being such a key area for both unwinding and spending quality time with loved ones in, it’s really important to ensure you make it a space in which you take great pride in. And it’s a good idea to decorate or make minor changes to this room on a fairly regular basis to keep things feeling fresh and exciting. With this in mind, I thought I’d share a few current trends to bring into your living room in 2019. Read on to find out more …

Colours

I’m sure it will come as no surprise when I say that colours go in and out of fashion faster than you can say ‘Jack Robinson’ when it comes to home decor. And this year is no exception. It most definitely comes down to personal taste and the style of the room when you’re choosing the colour palette for your living room, but a few of the current most popular colours to incorporate at the moment include warm and creamy hazelnuts, muted pastels and new blues. It’s a vast contrast to the bright and bold colours that were popular this time last year!

Photo Walls

This year it’s all about personalising your living room with an arrangement of favourite family photographs. A bare expanse of wall above the sofa or sideboard makes the ideal spot. Choose frames that are identical in size and colour, and arrange in a grid formation to make a visual impact that visitors are sure to coo over.

Fabrics

Believe it or not, there are also some fabrics which are proving to be hugely popular in 2019. Velvet, in particular, is still on the rise as it has a feeling of luxury and comfort – this makes it a good option for sofas, curtains and cushions.

Wooden Furniture

It’s safe to say that wooden furniture is well and truly making a comeback this year. Everyone I know is buying it for their homes! Wooden furniture works well in the living room as it’s durable, easy to clean and looks fab in most spaces. One of my favourite wooden collections at the moment just has to be The Trade Furniture Company’s ‘Sheesham’ range, which includes stunning coffee tables, sideboards, bookcases and more. I think they’d look beautiful in my own home.

Flooring

Flooring is a key area to address when updating your living room this year. And it seems that patterned carpets are here to stay! Although it isn’t necessarily for me, I do think it could be an interesting way to add some visual appeal to the room. Marble-look flooring is also becoming very popular but tends to be a little on the expensive side. This is why we usually stick with laminate flooring, but maybe we should think outside the box and try something else for a change!

Corner Sofas

Corner sofas are another current trend which can look great in any living room. They can help give it a lovely, relaxed vibe as well as providing plenty of seating for the whole family to sit on. The next time we buy a sofa I want to go for a corner one as I think they’re just fab!

These are the main living room trends for 2019 that can really revitalise any living area. Like I said before, this should be a space that you take great pride in. So make it somewhere that looks fantastic but is also comfortable and welcoming for the whole family at the same time. I promise you won’t regret it.
