Decorating a large room can be a challenging task to avoid making it look empty. Separating spaces, appropriate distribution and wise choice of accessories and colors are the key to success. Be inspired by our gallery.

1. Living Room with Two Zones

When the living room is very large, you can create several zones. On one side — a living room with a white sofa, wooden table and black metal structure, and on the other — a reading corner with an armchair and an impressive floor-to-ceiling shelf. The key to unity is using a single color scheme. White serves as the base, and burgundy for cushions and throws becomes the common thread between zones.

2. Harmony with Plants

This large living room with huge windows was arranged so that the sofas match the floor of the room. But to avoid it looking too empty and cold, a corridor was left between the armchairs and sofas. One of the principles of decorating a large living room is not to glue furniture against walls, allowing details to 'breathe'.

3. With Two Tables

In large rooms with several armchairs and sofas, an excellent decorative element would be placing two identical coffee tables to serve all seating areas. Here we chose two elegant wooden tables with glass tops, which allow light through and provide warmth without creating a heavy feeling in this classic room.

4. Rustic Living Room for the Whole Family

To avoid this room looking cold and giving a sense of emptiness, the designer placed the living room in the center of the space without gluing furniture to the walls. The backs facing the door — a pair of armchairs is positioned where the sofa would be, which is lighter. They were chosen in light tones that help reduce visual weight of the beams. Carpets were also used for zoning, dividing the sofa area from the rest of the room.

5. Two Rooms in One

A more intimate and comfortable zone next to the fireplace, consisting of two armchairs with armrests and a more social area with two modern curved sofas. These contemporary furniture lines contrast the classic elements such as lamp, baseboards and curtains.

6. Around the Fireplace

This room is full of warmth, elegance and style. Two sofas surround the fireplace, highlighting its presence, while two armchairs complete the composition and add wholeness. Due to the large space a kind of corridor was created, easing access to the outside world and including a desk for storage.
