Decorate an Art Deco Living Room

When you walk into a living room, do you enjoy seeing contemporary elements that might remind you of a modern Hollywood movie? Possibly you decorating inspiration might groove on a modern coffee house, or a funky café? If you would like to have a living room that is modern, comfortable, and stylish then an art deco design is perfect for you. Your interior design choices can bring reality to a living space that mirrors your personal style.

If you have ever walked into a room and felt like the walls were staring back at you blankly, then the lack of a strong theme is probably to blame. You can have tons of class and elegance but still be missing that critical piece in home décor. Decorating a living room with the art deco motif can be a modernizing effect for your entire living space.

Paint with Muted Colors

Painting the walls in your living can seem like an overwhelming task, but I guarantee they will bring completion to your art deco design. There are so many templates of color to choose from and the decorating options seem endless, but art deco interior designing trends require complementary color combinations.

Choose Soft Tones

For an art deco appeal, you must choose a paint color like soft gray, muted mocha, or warm green. Interestingly enough, an art deco living room can have walls that are painted with a brown or light gray color and the room can still feel wide open and spacious. With a few helpful tips, you can create an art deco living room that will bring life and enjoyment to your living space.

Explore Circular Patterns

Art Deco is reminiscent of the decorating time period when a mixing of patterns and angles became popular. A living room that has dynamic architectural elements will certainly help to create the home décor you are striving to attain. When you think pattern and design, let your mind think circular. A decorating tendency is to think of furniture layout and home décor in terms of squares and rectangles. With art deco design, think outside the box and allow your decorative items to combine lines with curvature. Choose a throw pillow for your bed that has a circular pattern, or decorate with a table lamp that has a circular base. Remember, art deco is about modern texture and movement, so allow some flexibility in your décor choices.

Keep Furniture Neutral

It is difficult to decorate a living area if the color of the room, the large pieces of furniture, or the flooring is too unique or too unusual to accommodate decorative accessories. Neutral shades of living room paint and soft wooden floors are the most popular for catching the attention of potential buyers. In addition, busy patterns on large pieces of furniture like couches, loveseats, and curtains can cause confusion and disarray in the living room. Instead, choose simple basic colors and patterns for your big items in your living room, and save the funky art deco accents for the smaller pieces. Fortunately, neutral shades of sofas, accent tables, and entertainment centers don’t have to be stale and boring. There are many available large decorating furniture items that are neutral but still have exotic hardware or intricate woodworking. Neutral shades are often vibrant and fresh, and your colorful art deco accents will bring life and vitality to the more basic pieces of furniture.
