Modern Living Rooms: Interior Design Ideas

Posted: 07 Dec 2012 08:04 AM PST

Here’s a splash of inspiration for your modern living spaces, fresh from a menagerie of exciting design talent. Ranging from calm and collected monochrome schemes, to cheerful setups filled with color blasts, there is sure to be something to float your boat!

This muted scheme gives a sophisticated look, accented beautifully by bespoke library shelves fitted under the open plan staircase.

The solid scheme receives a quirky finish in the form of an oversized, overhead anglepoise light arrangement.

Keeping the backdrop dark and on the stark side allows the option of adding bold and colorful artwork without the danger of an over complicated result. Furniture can also steal some of the limelight in cool clashing colors, which works in perfect harmony with the rainbow of wall art.

Plant greenery adds life–both literally and figuratively–to any room scheme.

Running a texture through a room scheme can work just as successfully as threading a continuous color story; this room is a great example with its wicker seating that seems to echo the open weave of the large pendant lights and the slats of the louver window shutters.
