The living room should be the showpiece of the house. It should be visually interesting and exciting when guests arrive. If you feel like yours is lacking in vibrancy, then think of ways to improve the space. These do not have to be expensive or difficult to do. Sometimes small changes can make a big difference. For instance, you might want to add hand woven cushions for your sofa.
This is, after all, where your guests will sit and stay for the majority of their time in the house. The cushions can create a nice contrast between the modern furnishing and old world charm. Hand-woven pieces can be quite striking in their attention to detail. These may contain patterns and symbols that people are drawn to. The colours are often vibrant as well. Find pieces that would blend well with the space.
