Posted in Angelcityfurniture

Few rooms are as oft-used and much-loved as the living room. It’s the place to curl up by a fire with a good book, enjoy a movie with your family, and sprawl around with friends while enjoying a delicious glass of vino. Along with the kitchen, the living room likely sees the most foot traffic at home, making it the perfect place to fully express your own interior design style. But when we want to make a change, we like to do it right, which is why we tapped an interior designer to share some of the most popular living room décor ideas for 2021.

Whether you’re looking to make a few little tweaks here and there or want to revamp the whole thing, our expert Javaneh Pirooz has you covered. The winds have been changing in the world of interiors this past year, and folks are looking to invest in their homes to make them more functional and aesthetically pleasing. Being stuck inside for the better part of two years will do that to ya! For her part, Pirooz has been surprised to see a shift for more aesthetically pleasing items, as opposed to cozier pieces. “People want their homes to look like the places they dream of visiting and want to create that form of escapism in their own space,” she tells us.

Adding a fresh coat of paint, jazzing up a bookshelf with new accessories, and a new rug or two can go a long way in transforming the look of your living room. What are you looking to switch up these days? Sound off in the comments and let us know.
