Choose eccentric minimalism

Choosing a minimalist interior design scheme for the living room of a house means focusing on simplicity and represents a great way to create personal and elegant spaces. To succeed in this, all you have to do is concentrate on clean lines and neutral colors as a base, subsequently leaving room for creativity by inserting the right accessories. Minimalism requires the use of few elements and furnishing accessories, but it does not mean that a minimalist living room can’t include eccentric touches, adding bold artworks, bright cushions, or unusual pieces of furniture, such as the Vetrite glass and wood Mars coffee table, with an unusual design that is best suited to the most luxurious and elegant rooms.

Living room furnishing ideas, a mix of eras for a unique atmosphere

An increasingly fashionable trend when it comes to original ideas for decorating a living room is one that includes the use of furnishings in different styles. This interior design approach can be an interesting way to recreate a retro elegance, cleverly combining design pieces from different periods. A 60s-style sofa, for example, can live harmoniously next to a modern table, creating an effect that is both eye-catching and personal in a room that needs to stand out thanks to its originality. This concept is expressed by the pieces in the Eklektikos collection, presented at the Milan Furniture Fair 2023 and designed with the aim of combining ancient and modern, sleek and decorative, in a sort of contemporary eclecticism.

The importance of using colors when decorating a modern living room

Modern living room decorating ideas do not come down simply to the choice of furniture and accessories, which are of course central to any living room design project, but also to the choice of colors used for the walls. Particular chromatic effects or quirky wallpapers can bring personality to the whole room, completely transforming the appearance of the living space. It’s no coincidence that even before completely or partially replacing the furnishings, many makeover projects focus on the color to successfully give the room personality, enhancing the overall appearance. With this in mind, why not consider Tessere by SICIS. This collection applies the art of mosaic to textiles, bringing the refinement of this ancient art to furnishing design.

As well as the colors, another key element is the lighting in the room, which, with the right touch, can achieve astonishing effects. One idea might be to choose contemporary lampshades and vintage style floor lamps to light different zones of the living areas in different ways, almost creating a visual separation of the spaces. Or, you might want to opt for more modern solutions, with LED lights to emphasize and showcase different corners of the room, for example.

The importance of choosing versatile and multifunctional furniture

Furniture is becoming increasingly flexible and versatile, as demonstrated by the many projects that focus on modularity and personalization to create solutions adapted to suit every need. One of the trends of the moment is to choose versatile and multifunctional furniture, which allows you to alter the organization of the spaces depending on your needs: modular sofas and adjustable tables, for example, can be modified to satisfy different furnishing requirements, while console tables can enhance the space by creating corners with different personalities.

An art gallery on the walls

Choosing artworks to furnish a living space is the perfect choice if you want to bring a truly personal touch to the room. It’s important, however, that each piece chosen creates the right dialog with the other elements in the lounge, as well as with the chosen color palette and lighting. Selecting a handful of well-suited artworks and transforming them into the focal points of the living room, thanks to a bespoke interior design project, can be the winning choice for showcasing both the artwork and the decorating scheme as a whole.

The elegance and refinement of a mosaic

One solution to make a living space truly unique is by using mosaic and, in the living room, it’s possible to opt for sophisticated compositions that bring a unique touch to the walls and personalize the entire room. For an even more elegant result, it is important to choose only high-quality tiles, such as those made by SICIS, produced at the company headquarters in Ravenna and hand-laid by master mosaicists, with a proportion of 70% precious minerals, which make every element more hard-wearing and shinier.

Ways to personalize the interior design

The most important aspect in furnishing a living space, as in any room in a home, is to make the person who will live there feel at ease. Design is fundamental in this because it provides the opportunity to fully represent the—unique—personality of every homeowner, which is precisely why SICIS focuses on the option to customize every project, not just by choosing between leathers and fabrics of various types, but also by tailor-making every element with the addition of mosaic or Vetrite glass slab inserts. This approach makes it possible to achieve unique projects closely linked to the taste and character of every client, for a result that showcases not only every room, but also the house as a whole.
