Top Tips to Make Your Show Home Living Area Warmer and More Inviting

A house wouldn’t really be complete without a living area – just as a show home would not be the same without it. Our living areas are designed to be ‘lived in’ – which means they are designed for gatherings and special occasions, a space where the people living within that household and their guests can relax, share stories, and gather together with relative ease and comfort. This is why all living areas or rooms have sofas in the first place! But if you are in the midst of creating the ideal show home living area and you would like the space to have a warmer, more inviting feel, here are some top tips you should keep in mind. 

Add warmer textures

Adding warmer textures is one of the best ways to make the living area feel warmer. What do we mean by this? It means adding soft, plush, and luxurious fabrics like faux fur, chenille, or velvet. You can even add more texture using natural materials such as wood, rattan, or wicker. And then place a cosy rug in your living area – the rug can make a real difference in creating a warm and inviting interior space.

Use warm lights 

Lighting plays a truly significant role in creating a cosy ambience and atmosphere, according to showhome interior design experts from Blocc. That said, why not use soft lighting to make the space more inviting and relaxing? Consider using lamps instead of harsh overhead lights to create a more intimate atmosphere. You can even place candles strategically around your living area to exude a warm glow.

Liven up the space with warm, welcoming colours

Using warm, welcoming colours in your living room can make it more inviting. For instance, orange, yellow, and red can create an inviting and relaxing atmosphere, while cool colours such as blue and green can make a space feel more sterile and clean. You can also spread the ‘warmth’ in different ways – through your furniture, accessories, wallpaper colours or wall paint.

Use window drapes and coverings

Windows can let in a lot of cold air during winter, so it’s essential to use window coverings to keep your living area warm. But they also have another purpose – thick curtains or drapes can help insulate your windows and keep the cold air out, but you can also use window coverings to add warmth and texture to the overall living space. 

Make use of layers

Adding layers to your living area can create a more inviting space, and this can include layering rugs, pillows, and throws. Mix and match different patterns and textures to create a unique and personalised look.

Incorporate plants

We all know what plants can do – plants can add warmth and life to any space! So why not bring the natural beauty of plants to your living room? They can even improve the air quality and create a more relaxing atmosphere. You can choose plants that are easy to care for, like spider plants or succulents, which will instantly transform the space.
