Your living room can have a significant impact on the overall aesthetic of your home. That’s why it’s important to create a space you enjoy that reflects your personality and style. If you’re looking to remodel this area, the living room trends of 2025 suggest putting together a comfortable and cohesive room filled with bold colors, lots of patterns, and a mix of vintage and modern personal touches. Consider these six style tips to create an inviting, personalized atmosphere.
1. Curated touches. Combine modern art and accessories with antiques and beautiful wood finishes to pull together a collected-looking space.
2. Rich color palettes. Use bold hues, such as burgundies and browns, on walls. If you’re not ready to cover your walls in one of these strong colors, start by adding a vibrant rug or throw pillows.
3. Plenty of patterns. Mix contemporary patterns in your pieces, but nothing too overwhelming. Textiles should have a common thread running throughout and pattern sizes should be thoughtful and convey a sense of comfort.
4. Comfortable furnishings. Create a sense of flow and ease with sculptural, round furniture shapes in soft, luxurious materials that make you want to curl up and relax.
5. Contrasting welts. Add personality to the room by selecting furniture pieces with welts and trims on the upholstery. Pick an unexpected color that doesn’t perfectly match to add a playful touch.
6. Mixed metals. Blend metals, such as brass and nickel, within lighting, fixtures, and décor to create balance without overpowering the room. Make every detail count to ensure that form and function complement each other.
Typically, renovations and improvements increase the value of your home and personal belongings. If you make considerable updates to your living room or any other space, talk to a Westwood agent to make sure your upgrades are adequately covered in your home insurance policy.
