Living Room Modern Interior Design :
Step1 : Select seating pieces that are upholstered in a light-colored fabric such as a solid off-white cotton or linen, country check, awning stripe or floral. Add coordinating pillows, some with flounces.
Step2 : Go with a coffee table that doesn't have a heavy look. A dainty, light-toned wood table will work, or a glass-topped metal or wicker-and-metal model. Consider putting a glass top over a garden bench if you can find one in the right height.
Step3 : Use end tables that are light-toned wood or are painted. Painted tables could be embellished with a floral design or might appear to be worn and weathered.
Step4 : Light the room with table lamps that are low-key, with plain wrought iron or ceramic bases, or that underscore garden style and have floral motif shades and terracotta, wicker or floral-motif bases.
Step5 : Choose an outdoorsy sisal area rug, or a wool or cotton one with a floral motif. If the floor is hardwood, keep it light - a dark stain could pull down the happy feel of your room.
Step6 : Dress the windows simply or leave them bare to blur the separation between indoors and outdoors. Simple curtains that work well include checks, plain solids (for example, homespun-look tab-tops hung on a tree-branch rod), eyelet, and of course, florals.
Step7 : Hang pictures that celebrate the garden - blooming landscapes, botanical drawings or floral still lifes.
Step8 : Accessorize further with all types of flowers - dried, silk, fresh, potted - in pitchers, watering cans and vases. Other suitable accessories include lace doilies, vintage-look tablecloths, animal figurines, birdhouses, baskets and even well-worn garden tools.
