Whether you barely have room for a loveseat or regularly host dozens of movie nights, the living room is one of the busiest spaces in your home. It’s where you sit down with family, entertain guests, read a book and more, so it’s only natural that you want it to be as comfortable and inviting as possible. That’s why this collection of fresh living room ideas comes in handy when you’re decorating.

Whatever your decorating style – from mid-century to farmhouse, modern to minimal – we’ve got you covered. After choosing the best colors for the space (it’s okay to choose a trendy color tone, too!), you can revamp the area with a wide variety of architectural features and smart decor choices. Add exposed wood beams to high ceilings, build custom shelves for color-coded books, or make the fireplace your focal point with brick or stone. You’ll also find inspiration for decorating with statement rugs, which can define areas of a room and add a pop of color to an overly neutral layout.

Overall, these living room ideas are budget-friendly and easy to recreate on your own. And because decorating is all about having fun, we’ve rounded up some of this year’s best decorating trends that can do wonders for a living room.
