Skip the big box store to buy your decor; look for local artists. Instead of having a piece that a thousand other people have, you could have a one of a kind and support a local artist in their passion. Now you have a story to tell when someone comes over.

6. Simple Large Living Room Ideas

You don’t have to have a lot of furniture or decor to have a lovely living room. Creating a simple living room embraces the large space and lets the room breathe. Limit the amount of furniture and decor you have in the room. Choose a single couch and place a coffee table in front of it.

Then for the decor, choose one sizeable decorative piece that you can hang on the wall centered over the sofa. Then you’ll want a lighting fixture and possibly a plant in a corner or by a window.

7. Large Living Room Couch Ideas

Your sofa is the main piece of furniture in your large living room. You’ll need to decide what kind of sofa you want and if you need extra seating. If you choose a large sectional sofa, it can wrap around in a U- or L-shape to provide plenty of seating. Place several throw pillows throughout for extra comfort and cushioning.

If the idea of having a large couch isn’t appealing, there are options. You could have a straight line couch with extra seating around it in the form of accent chairs. Try placing two chairs opposite the sofa with a coffee table in between. You can also consider a single accent chair off to one side and a floor lamp behind it. This setting could serve as additional seating or a cozy reading nook.

8. Contemporary Large Living Room Ideas

A modern living room will have a high ceiling, bright walls, and clean furniture design. Look for pieces that have minimal detailing and ornamentation. Modern design embraces straight, sleek lines. This theme should continue throughout the room, both in the physical space and in the decor.
