Grey is a great choice for any living room. It can be paired with bold colors like red and green, or go more subtle with white and black. Grey has a versatile look that can fit in almost any décor style, whether it be modern farmhouse or traditional cottage. To add more character to your grey modern farmhouse living room, read more.
Rustic Modern Farmhouse
The rustic modern farmhouse is a popular style, and it's
easy to see why. It's got all of the best elements of both worlds, but none of
the drawbacks.
If you're going for this look in your living room, keep
in mind that you don't want to go overboard with too much dark wood furniture.
It can get claustrophobic. Instead, choose one or two pieces (like an armoire)
that have some dark details (like a metal knob). Then choose light-colored wood
furniture to balance it out. A rug on top of hardwood floors will also help
define the space and break up any visual monotony.
Use neutral colors for everything else, walls, rugs and
curtains should be either grey or white, sofa fabric should be light tan or
cream, coffee table should be white oak etc. This kind of decorating style uses
lots of natural materials like stone floors and wood furniture and sometimes
even raw steel. In order to achieve an overall rustic feel that doesn't feel
overdone or sterile like some other styles might do when trying too hard.
Pairing grey with other colors
While some people may think that combining grey with
white is too boring, there are many shades of grey to choose from. If you want
something more vibrant than light pinks and blues, try pairing the greys
together to create a soothing atmosphere without being overbearing on the eyes.
For those who aren't afraid of taking risks when it comes to home décor ideas,
you'll love this combination. The bright hue will make your room stand out even
though everything else remains neutral (the furniture will still match).
Have a Seat
Sectional Sofa. A modern sofa set is a great way to incorporate a
seating area into your living room, plus it offers flexibility in how you can
use it. You can also add some throw pillows or other accessories to make this a
cozy spot where you and your family can relax together on the weekends.
Bench: A bench is another way to add extra seating without
taking up too much space and if you have limited storage, they're easy to store
when not in use.
Rocking Chair/Recliner: If you're looking for something more
traditional, rocking chairs and recliners are always classics. But there are
also newer options available that offer different styles at different price
points so there's something for everyone.
Glamour Farmhouse
- Use a large, bold print on the sofa.
- Use a large, colorful rug.
- Use a large, colorful artwork.
- Use a large, colorful lamp.
- Use a large and colorful vase for flowers or plants
if you have them (and if you don't, consider buying some).
- Consider using a bowl to store snacks and drinks
instead of traditional trays.
Contemporary Classic Farmhouse
This style is characterized by a mix of classic farmhouse
elements with contemporary furniture pieces. It's a modern twist on the classic
style that uses neutral colors and natural materials like wood, stone and
metal. A living room done in this style will have a rustic feel with hints of
contemporary touches here and there.
The furniture should be mostly neutral in color so you
won't compete with the other elements of your decorating scheme. But if you
want to add some color, keep it to small touches like throw pillows or artwork
on display behind glass frames.
Wooden flooring adds texture but still allows for easy
maintenance so you don't have to worry about constantly cleaning up spills from
your kids' drinks! If wood isn’t what you feel like having in your home though,
wooden floors can easily be replaced with tile or even concrete surfaces that
look just as good.
Love Where You Live
- Be inspired by the things you love.
- Use what you have.
- Make it your own.
- Use a neutral color palette.
- Use bold colors sparingly, as accents and
accessories in your room (like pillows).
- Use texture and pattern to add interest to a room
that already has lots of furniture styles in it so they don’t compete with
each other visually or steal attention away from each other when viewed
together at the same time.
