Modern farmhouse décor is the way to go when creating your beautiful living room. Modern farmhouse means incorporating textures and fabrics. Try pairing a soft fabric couch with a wicker armchair, or a leather couch looks great with a bouclé footstool. The color palette is equally important to consider; the most successful living rooms keep in buttery beiges, cool grays, and rich woods. Pops of color can look incredible – go for a vibrant green plant or a grand navy chair.
Lighting is also important in a modern farmhouse living room, as you can use pendant lighting to create smaller lit spaces in the room, or perhaps a crystal chandelier for elegance. Floor lamps are a great way to create a cozy nook by an armchair. Also, consider turning living room staples into exciting centerpieces; prints surrounding the TV become an exciting gallery wall frame or a mantelpiece is filled with exciting and sentimental trinkets.
