Three Stunning Modern Living Room Design Inspirations

The living room is one of the most important rooms in the entire house. If you only could choose one space in your home to put your heart and soul into designing, we are sure you would choose the living room to be at the top of your list. It is the first room that your guests see and should set the tone for your entire decorating scheme throughout your home.

There are many decorating styles that you can choose from, and the most popular are traditional, country, contemporary, and transitional. Whichever style you choose, make sure that you create a space stays true to your aesthetic and reflects your own personal style.

Among the four styles, modern or contemporary design is one of the hottest trends these days especially for those people whose main focus is the function of their home. Aside from that, the clean look of modern interiors make home owners love this type of concept which is clutter free and stress free.

Depending on the layout of your house, your contemporary living space can serve a multitude of functions, a formal sitting area, a space for relaxation, or for entertaining guests and spending time with family. Here are three fresh design inspirations to help you modernise your living room interior:

Luminette Privacy Sheers

If what you like to create is a quiet, relaxing and enjoyable living room, white is the colour of choice. White gives a living room a very light appearance, particularly if combined with a good choice of furniture. The huge windows also give natural light to this modern living room, making it look more inviting.

Luxaflex Silhouette Shadings with PowerRise Platinum Technology

The combination of grey, black and white in their correct doses, easily transforms any room into a more modern and elegant environment. It does not need to be loaded with a lot of colours, rather a simple grey matched with perfectly contrasting textiles and sophisticated décor creates a contemporary twist. You also don’t really need to use a single colour for your furniture, choosing a different colour can act as an accent that ties the room together and takes it to a whole new level.  

Luxaflex Roller Blinds with Atmosphere fabric

A monochromatic scheme is another good option for decorating a modern living room. Off-white, earthy tones and some subtle accents are all that is needed to create an elegant, warm and welcoming living room. A unique mixture of materials and the use of fine lines from the combination of roller blinds and curtains creates a clean and cosy ambiance.

Cater for all shapes and sizes with Softshades

It's amazing to see how windows have trended over the years. Over the last century, windows have gone from a simple feature in the home to one of the main focal points. So many modern homes are now designed with floor to ceiling windows, skylights and windows in weird and wonderful shapes and sizes.

However, one thing remains the same - windows can be a challenge to effectively cover - you need the right balance between light and privacy, not to mention the right look for your home.

The Luxaflex Softshades collection is a unique collection of window treatments that are non-traditional, soft and beautiful. They can provide a solution for one window or you can co-ordinate between the various products to create a unified look for your entire home. The challenge for many is covering large window expanses, including floor to ceiling windows, which Luxaflex has taken into consideration with Luxaflex Luminette Privacy Sheers. The sheers have a 180 degree rotation to control light and privacy when open and closed and can be operated with the Softrack Exclusive Track System, which features a scissor mechanism to perfectly align the vanes at all times.

When it comes to skylights and other weird and wonderfully shaped windows, Duette Shades were designed as a suitable option particularly for arched, sloped or hard to reach windows. Duette Shades are particularly unique as they are made from a spun bonded honeycomb structure fabric which makes them more energy efficient - an advantage for all homes year round as it means they also keep energy costs down.

All products in the Softshades collection are designed to complement each other and can be fully motorised. Other options include  Pirouette Shadings and Silhouette Shadings.
