The latest living room trends for 2024
The living room is the heart of any home. It's the place where people spend most of their time, so why not create a lounge area that reflects your personality and sets the tone for the rest of your home? If you're looking for inspiration, here's a round-up of the latest living room interior design trends for 2024 to help you get the best out of your space.
Earthy colour palette
If you're rethinking your colour palette, airy neutrals and bold jewel colours are being swapped for earthy tones. Think lush forest greens, deep browns and burnt oranges for this colourway. The combination of these hues will depend on the dimensions and layout of your lounge. It might be that your living room lends itself to green walls or you might decide to nod to the trend with some burnished orange accents.
To complete the look, pair it with furniture and accessories such as standing lamps in natural materials. Rattan and wood are the perfect addition, complementing the rich, earthy tones of this living room trend.
Functional storage
When it comes to the living room, comfort is key. To make this your ultimate relaxing space, introduce storage solutions that can be used to stash the typical clutter that can build up in this space. By clearing everything away, you will have a tidy lounge where you can unwind and put your feet up.
For the living room, storage solutions include dual-purpose additions, such as coffee tables with drawers, and fitted living furniture. Built-in cupboards and shelving are also a neat use of space.
Make a statement with lighting
In 2024, statement lighting is set to be a key living room trend. To tap into this, draw the eye with a bold, free-standing lamp or select a large shade for your ceiling light. This creates a focal point in your living room and can form the basis for the look and feel of your décor.
As well as lighting up the lounge, this is a great opportunity to inject some of your personality, too. Research different designs to find the right fit and don't be afraid to go with a colour you love – the brighter, the better!
Add depth
This year, layering textures is set to be a theme in every room. But the living room particularly lends itself to this look, thanks to the opportunity here to place throws over sofas in varying patterns and materials.
Consider swapping existing materials for luxurious upholstery. This adds an extra layer and can create a sense of depth in the room.
Focus on sustainability
There is a real focus on sustainable living right now, and this has made its way into design trends. Choosing eco-friendly home décor is both stylish and beneficial for the environment, especially if you decide to upcycle furniture or use reclaimed materials to decorate your living room.
Try researching eco-friendly suppliers and take a trip to vintage stores where you might come across retro pieces that can fit beautifully in your home.
