Easy ways to refresh your living room with textiles
New textiles can give your living room a whole new look and feel. It’s a fun and quite effective way of creating an entirely different vibe – without that much effort at all. For instance, a decorative curtain on one of the walls can make a huge difference. Not to mention what new sofa covers, cushions and rugs can do.
Wall curtain transformation
Covering one of your walls with curtains can give you a dramatic wallpaper effect. Why not choose something loud? It’s easy to change should you tire of it. Also, with a rail that turns the corner and continues in front of the windows, your new curtains can serve dual purposes.
Sofa cushion expressionism
Cushions in decorative colours and patterns have a certain way of brightening your living room – almost like pieces of art. To get a well-balanced display, try starting with a boldly patterned hero cushion and complement with cushions in colours from the same palette.
A rug to set the scene
A large area rug can help define a clear zone within the room to make a group of furniture feel more connected. It also softens the acoustics nicely. Going with a one-coloured rug usually calms things down, just as texture always adds an extra dimension.
