By Anastasia Chapman While finding that perfect look for your living room that falls somewhere between a functional/relaxed space and a model home can be a difficult task, you also need to make sure that it reflects your taste and style.

There is nothing like crafting a tastefully designed living room that becomes the hub for enjoying family time, while you entertain your loved ones. Your living room not just sets the tone for the rest of your home’s décor, but it's also one of the best places to showcase your design aesthetics by experimenting with different layers of patterns, textures, colour palettes and a variety of furniture styles.

It’s meant to be an inviting and cosy space with loads of personal style. It’s the ideal space to put all the latest trends to the test, whether it’s opting for an all-natural and organic update or going bold with abstract accents. So, if you are looking for a complete overhaul or a quick refresh, use these pro tips to spice up the family's favourite room in the upcoming year!

This trend makes the room feel more cohesive, but non- conforming and has a similar effect on the people in them, too. Create your eclectic living room with pieces you love.
