5 Interior Design Ideas That Will Get Your Living Room In The Summer Mood

Just like the seasons change, so do people and the styling of their home. While some people might redecorate more than others, the desire for change is only human. The living room is the heart of the home- it is where the whole family comes together to spend time with one another. Which is why finding the perfect style to match your needs is crucial. That’s why the team at Cleo’s Furniture has put together this list of the top 5 interior design ideas to get your living room in the summer mood!

Find a statement piece. Select a piece that can bring some life into your living room. Depending on the size of the pace you are working with it could be a dramatic suspension lamp or chandelier. Or, maybe you have a blank wall that is needing to be occupied by a colorful piece of artwork. Finding the right statement piece can be an affordable way to give your living room a completely different look and feel.

Use natural/organic materials and colors. One of the biggest trends in interior design right now is the use of neutral colors and combining that with natural materials and textures. Having different textures and natural materials can also make your space feel more welcoming and grounded. A landscape-inspired palette of soothing greens, timeless blues, and warm earth tones will dominate in 2022- which is wonderful, as natural color schemes have been shown to reduce stress, increase productivity and creativity, and generally make us happier.

Bring the outdoors in. One of the biggest trends this season is indoor/outdoor living, and the easiest way to help accomplish an indoor/outdoor living look is by bringing indoor plants into your home. Linking your indoor and outdoor space is a simple way to make your home feel bigger, while also bringing more natural materials into your space. Plants also increase levels of oxygen and nice smelling flowers can help boost your mood and productivity levels. By bringing the outdoors in you can create a sense of cohesion and blend the interior of the home with the exterior.

Select the right lighting. A beautifully decorated living room can feel unwelcoming and cold without the proper lighting in place. Light and color impact our moods, which is why lamps or lights placed strategically can change the mood of the entire room.

Use bold patterns. Whether you choose a bright floral or a dark geometric print, choosing the right pattern can change the entire ambiance of your living room. This summer’s trends are highlighting prints that emphasize color contrasts. If you aren’t sure which print to choose, large scale prints typically fit better than smaller ones.
