Slogan of living room renovation

The living room is the core and busy area of most people's homes, so it should be open and comfortable. However, the reality is sometimes not what we think. Maybe your living room belongs to a narrow and long pattern. If you add improper layout and decoration, it may become a very depressing living space, or it may look longer and narrower. How to make the small living room present a broader vision? Learn a few tricks quickly!

Create flowing walking lines and dissolve the sense of narrowness.

For a long and narrow living room, sofas and TV cabinets are usually placed against the long walls on both sides, right? At this time, we should be careful, if other furniture stands in rows like this, and the coffee table is in the middle, when it forms a too straight aisle, it will make the space look long and boring. Therefore, it is best to use the layout of furniture to create a flowing perspective for the living room. For example, placing the sofa and the single chair on the left and right sides respectively and slightly rotating the single chair diagonally with the sofa can effectively break the monotonous long layout.

Use L-shaped seating arrangement to delimit the site boundary.

Another way to avoid the living room feeling narrower and narrower but looking more square is to establish a boundary for it. That is to say, after the sofa is placed on one side of the wall, a small sofa or two single chairs are added at the position perpendicular to the sofa, so that the seating area is in an L-shaped layout with a 90-degree angle.

Add circular elements to soften rigid lines.

This method is similar to the above-mentioned "creating a flowing moving line in the living room", which eliminates the sharp feeling of rectangles and horizontal lines through rounded arc curves. For example, add a round coffee table, low stool or carpet in the center of the living room, choose a round or spherical lighting and lampshade, or hang a round mirror or artwork on the wall. All furniture and ornaments with the concept of "circle" can divert people's attention from the size of space.

If your living room is narrow and long, you might as well divide it into two independent areas to provide different functions. Take the following picture as an example. The whole row of sofas is planned to be placed on the side of the living room near the window. Add a chandelier and a small coffee table, and it becomes a leisure field. Tables and chairs that can read and work are arranged on the same side as the sofa, which makes the living room have more functions and gives the space rich flexibility in life.

Flexible use of vertical design to achieve visual balance

Creating a vertical visual focus in the living room area will help people to ignore the original narrow sense of horizontal space, such as high shelves, plants, floor-to-ceiling curtains with vertical stripes, paintings and artworks on the wall or large vertical lights ... Make full use of the vertical space in the living room as much as possible, create a high visual illusion, and make the small space feel more open and spacious.
