Inspired Living Room Trends for the New Year

Ashley Furniture Sofa

The new year brings design trends that maintain the living room as a comfortable haven against the ravages of the outside world, but this year with some interesting twists. Grays, whites, blacks and other neutral tones continue to take center stage, and many people are now adding statement rugs for interest. Curves are now more in style in living room furniture collections as an antidote to the stark, straight lines that have been so popular in minimalistic contemporary living rooms. Many stylish homes display touches of moody tones for drama, like soft black with undertones of blue against light or white furniture.

When you are ready to spruce up your home, you can find discount living room furniture online and at showrooms in central New Jersey.

A Monochromatic Color Scheme with a Statement Rug

Create a dazzling living room from the floor up with an area rug featuring a strong pattern or a pop of color. In a move away from stark straight lines and minimalism of uber-contemporary styles, we now see softened silhouettes and bold rugs with personality. Choose bright shades or geometric designs for the highest impact.

Curves Make an Appearance in Living Room Furniture

Universal Furniture Sofa

Curves are in again to soften the straight lines of contemporary living room furnishing, like this stylish Chesterfield sofa from Universal Furniture shown here. Add accents like round cocktail tables and barrel chairs, along with decorator items like rounded mirrors to accentuate the effect. Many name brand furniture collections are on-trend with rounded silhouettes to lighten the mood.

Moody Blues

Ashley Furniture Sofa

Nothing says “bring in the new” like deep, moody colors like blues and blacks. White and gray sofas may be in style but adding a loveseat or accent chair in a highly contrasting color add depth to the décor and expresses your good taste. High style sofas with tufting, nail heads, rounded arms and tufting in a deep tone go a long way in introducing thoughtful design features in your living room.

The Fun Factor

Dimplex Fireplace

We can all use a little more fun in our lives, and name brand living room furniture collections offer no end of choices. Entertainment consoles and motion furniture like rocker recliners and sectionals make the living room a great place to kick back and relax.
