Creating a Cozy and Stylish Living Room with the Right Furniture
Designing a Florida styled cozy and stylish living room starts with choosing the right coastal living room furniture pieces. Here at Matter Brother Furniture, our team of design experts can help you bring your vision to life from concept to completion with our complimentary design center. We’ve asked a few of our leading expert designers for some tips to help you create a comfortable and visually appealing space for your living room.
Plan the Layout:
Consider the size and shape of your living room when planning the furniture layout. Take measurements of the room and create a floor plan to visualize the arrangement. Aim for an open and inviting layout that encourages conversation and easy movement. With our online Room Planner, you can easily create plans on mobile and desktop devices. Save yourself the hassle of physically moving all your living room furniture around just to see if your sectional can go under the window; instead grab a seat, relax and start making your favorite pinterest boards a reality!
Choose a Comfortable Sofa:
The sofa is often the focal point of the living room, so selecting one that is both comfortable and stylish is often a hard decision. Look for high-quality upholstery and consider the size and shape that best suits your space. Adding plush throw pillows will enhance comfort and style to complete the look. One of our best selling sofas that checks all the boxes with comfort, style and affordability is the Alexandria’s Four Seasons 3 over 3 Sofa.
Accent Chairs:
Incorporating accent chairs not only provides additional seating options, but is an easy way to add bold colors, textures and visual interest. Choose chairs that complement the sofa and the overall style of the room. Consider different shapes, colors, and textures to create a layered look. If you want a more classic look, our experts suggest the Classic Home Living Room Accent Chair and add in some fun throw pillows to bring some color and texture into the room.
Coffee & End Tables:
A coffee table serves both functional and aesthetic purposes. Opt for a sturdy and well-proportioned living room coffee table that matches the style of your room. You can use it to display books, decorative items, or to hold drinks, snacks and play your favorite board game with the family.
Side or end tables are versatile and practical additions to any size living room. Nesting tables are a great way to save space while providing plenty of extra table top room for the whole family. They can be placed next to sofas or chairs and used for holding lamps, books, or drinks. These Driftwood nesting tables available at all our Matter Brothers Furniture showrooms bring functionality and infuse the coastal living style into your Florida home. Choosing end tables with interesting shapes or materials is a great way to add a touch of style.
Consoles, Cabinets & TV Stands:
Bulky entertainment centers are a piece of furniture from the past, as you no longer have to store hundreds of dvds and other media devices, most households nowadays just need an entertainment console to hold a TV and maybe a cable box. Look for a design that compliments the rest of the furniture, hides cords and provides storage like any of these four-door credenzas, or media sideboard cabinets.
Ottomans:
Ottomans not only make a great foot rest, they provide extra storage, table space and bring warmth and coziness to your living room. Choosing an ottoman that complements the furniture and defines the seating area is fun and easy with our vast selection of styles available online and in our showroom. Ottomans can be chosen to match the overall style of the sofa or sectional while providing storage or you can choose one that is a different fabric, texture or style to give your classic couch a more modern coastal feel. Our designers love to incorporate these poufs and cubes. into a space.
Accessories:
Finally, don’t forget to personalize your living room with accessories and decor that reflect your taste, and your interests. Displaying coastal artwork, like the saddle oyster shells wall decor, table lamps or hanging pendants will lighten up any room. Use plants, vases, and candles to add a touch of nature and create a cozy atmosphere. Plus, don’t forget to invite nostalgia to your space by adding items such as personal photographs and decorative items that hold sentimental value.
Remember, the key is to find a balance between comfort and style.
