Need some more creative ideas? Let’s have a look at some ways to make your living room more special.
Oversized Artworks
Oversized art became popular several years ago and it’s going to be popular for more and more years. Rocking a large artwork in the living room is a great idea for making a bold statement, with it you can express your thoughts. Choose a fitting piece in style or colors, or go for a contrasting bold one for a bolder look. If you can’t find a proper piece for your space, make it yourself, go creative!

Fireplaces
Fireplaces are usually made in living rooms, and accenting the wall with it is a great way to add coziness and comfort. Clad the whole wall with a different material, for example, brick or stone, and make a fireplace. You may also add firewood storage and a mantel to make the fireplace stand out even more. If covering the whole wall with something different isn’t what you want, make a vertical stripe to highlight the space, and it will make the ceiling look higher.
