Royal makeover

Living rooms are not just spaces of utility, but an extension of your personal style statement. If your personal style resonates with glamour and luxury, giving your living room’s décor a royal makeover is just what you’re looking for.

It’s all about experimenting with all the luxurious and vibrant prints and layering them in all sorts of ways. This style is basically the exact opposite of minimalism. It encourages newer ideas but overall, the feeling of the space should be majestic, not minimalistic or plain. One must not feel restricted to try something new as nothing is too much for a royal style living room.

Here are a few ideas you can consider to enhance your living room with that elegant, extravagant and lavish look it truly deserves.

Do not forget to add lots of bright, patterned cushions of different shapes and colors. It would add elegance and a sense of space to any room.

Flooring: Parquet floors give a vintage wooden feel to a room. Lay carpets and rugs with vibrant patterns to create a déjà vu effect.

Paneling: Wooden wall paneling accentuates the space as a whole. It is least noticed yet never fails to maintain the complexity of the décor. Wooden panel acts as a striking complement of the walls in this living room and provide the living room with dramatic and contemporary feel.

Molding: No space should feel empty or untouched. Moldings not only add a texture to the pillars and corners but also add grace to the grandeur of the space.

Mirrors: Mirrors reflect light and brighten up the entire space. Mirrors with baroque style frames further add a classical touch to the whole interior. Add consoles to make it look more dramatic.
