Tips To Buy Right Living Room Accessories

Accessories such as lighting, decorative items, rugs, etc. can add a lot of character to the decor of a living room. They are an inexpensive way to add a new look to the room. However, if not chosen wisely, they can make the room look clumsy. Following some simple tricks can help in choosing well-coordinated, practical and appealing accessories for the living room.

  1. Choose Quality Over Quantity: It may be tempting to place a number of accessories provided the availability of different beautiful styles of living room accessories. But, when it comes to decorating a room, it is important to follow the mantra of ‘Less Is More’. It may be wise to use a few unique accessories such as a statement piece of art, to create a focal point of the room. Placing large number of accessories in the living room can instead cause distraction and make the room look cluttered.
  2. Use Correct Proportion: Scale and proportion are two key elements of decor. Placing small accessories such as a postage-stamp rug in a large room can make it look awkward. Again, using a large rug or over-sized wall art in a small room can take the focus away from the rest of furniture. So, it is imperative to study the scale and proportion of the living room before choosing the accessories so as to create an aesthetic look and leave enough space to move around freely.
  3. Textures & Colors: Accessories are a great way to add a pop of color or texture to a room. So, use accessories to add visual interest and contrast to the space. However, make sure to choose the colors wisely so as they do not clash or create a visual burden.
  4. Add Accessories In Layers: It is a good strategy to place accessories in layers; large accessories should be placed first and sparingly, followed by use of medium- and small-sized accessories to fill in the space and create a balance where needed. At times, several small items can be grouped to create an illusion of a large accessory. But, make it a point to leave some breathing space and do not try to fill every corner of the room.
