Conversational Layout-Mid-Century Rustic Living Room

Products Featured in This Design

• While picking the sectional and the chairs, we went for simple designs after all, it is for a rustic living room. However, we decided to enhance the rustic simplicity of the seating space by adding some chic throw pillows, like the ones with the Neihoff striate stripe print pillow covers from All Modern, the Margo Selby mix Geo pillow cover from Pottery Barn and some cool Blue, White and Grey ones as well. It almost gives the mid-century rustic living room a beachy-vacation feel, which we love!
• The Maeve C-end table from Wayfair next to the sofa stands out with its Marble top and metallic stand. The 'C' shape makes it maneuverable, allowing you to draw it closer to the couch. The design aesthetics of the table is mid-century contemporary, and we thought it would be a great inclusion in this mid-century living room with a rustic theme.
• Between the lounge chairs, we've placed a martini side table from West Elm. As the name suggests, it's a great little place to keep your drinks and plates and keeps the conversations going!
• The Leigh coffee table from West Elm and the Kala hand-loomed, printed rug from Pottery Barn ties together the central decor space in the rustic living room. The colors once again complement the rest of the decor items used in the area.
• What defines this mid-century rustic living room is the subtlety of the design and the functionality of the layout. Everything is there for a reason and in some way or the other helps make this mid-century living room better.
• The streamline bookshelf from West Elm is a great storage and display unit. Great for keeping away knick-knacks and for showcasing decor items & indoor potted plants - which is what we have done.
• On top of the bookshelf, you will find the Alexis ceramic table lamp base with a USB port from Pottery Barn for additional lighting. We have also placed an abstract solid Brass sculpture from Restoration Hardware for decoration purposes- its unusual, organic shape makes it a conversation starter.
• Above, on the wall, is a vintage round mirror from Pottery Barn. The rustic look went well with the overall mid-century rustic decor theme. This one comes with a simple frame and the capability of taking the design theme of any room to the next level. Its simplicity and efficiency is what makes it a perfect fit in the rustic living room.
• Additional storage is always a good thing to have, and that's what we have done in this mid-century rustic living room. The Savannah oversized lidded baskets and the Tava Woven lidded baskets both from Pottery Barn are smart mid century living room ideas to incorporate in terms of decor. They are both pleasant to look at and functional with serving storage options without taking up too much space - you can keep your kids' toys in there, board games & cards, and extra linen.
• The rattan and Wicker bring in another level of texture as well in the rustic living room.
• Talking about storage options, we can't leave out the Wright buffet from West Elm, which is used as a TV console in this case. The extra cabinets are welcomed, and the beautiful mid-century wooden design in a dark walnut finish makes it a must-have in any mid-century living room.
• The buffet is also an excellent place to showcase some decor accessories, like the 3 piece White ceramic table vase set from All Modern. You can choose to let them be on their own as decor or put in some fresh flowers to brighten up space. These pieces are simple yet sophisticated, very mid-century rustic.
• Next to the buffet, against the wall, is a Highline bench from West Elm. Sleek and functional, the bench is a very comfortable seating option to have around the rustic living room. Easy to move around, the bench can be moved as per convenience and requirement. The stainless steel base and the blackened Brass finish give it that polished yet mid-century rustic look.
• The Marrs 1 single light globe pendant from Wayfair is the perfect blend of modern and traditional - just what you need in a mid-century rustic living room. The design is quaint and adds a unique touch to the rustic living room while serving the purpose of bringing in some much-needed light as well (not too harsh and not too feeble at the same time).We love how the light plays off from the intricate patterns in the pedant as well.
• While designing this mid-century rustic living room, we wanted to keep things warm, welcoming, and casual - a perfect spot for good company and great conversations. And if anything gets to be conversation pieces in this rustic living room, it's the art pieces!
• The Origami wall art from Anthropologie is a unique piece with a little bit of an abstract touch to it. The 'Woodland friend' print from Crate & Barrel, bringing in the outdoors, indoors, and the Nimbus dimensional print from Crate and Barrel, complements the relaxed and flowy ambiance of the rustic living room.
