Decorating one's living room can be quite daunting but we are here to make it simple for you. Gone are the days when the kitchen was referred to as the heart of every home. Make way for the new heart, which is your living room because it's where you spend most of your time relaxing, entertaining, conversing. That’s why it becomes important to create a space that is comfortable, looks great and invokes a sense of rest or relaxation. There are a whole bunch of things that come together harmoniously to create a living room—starting with the color of the walls, furniture, lighting, art, and area rugs if you are a fan. First, find out your decorating style and then start planning with what you have and slowly start adding things you want to see in your living room. Focal points, measurement, space, and balancing are things you must consider when you decorate a living room.
Q. What should every living room have?
Apart from good conversations, here are some essentials that every living room needs. A sofa that becomes your go-to spot for all conversation and socializing, a coffee table, a media unit for your television set and sound system, accent chairs that can move around, natural and artificial lighting, and wall art. If you have got the basics right, the rest of the decor comes easy. For finishing touches, dedicate a spot in your living room to display some pieces that reflect your personality.

You can even hang mirrors. This automatically makes space feel bigger and brighter. Wall-mounted planters or hanging plates is another way to catch attention.
