Family Room Ideas

Family Room Ideas

By Darren Hartley


The warm palette of red, brown and burnt orange in family room ideas can be punctuated by vibrant aqua glass vases on the coffee table. Two rugged leather sofas can be placed facing off over a round table and squared by another couch upholstered in Natura Lattice.

Coziness and colorfulness are essential room facets that are considerations in low maintained family room ideas. The sitting area is established by a rolled-arm sofa and plush-backed armchairs. When needed for conversations, a bench covered in an oversized plaid can be easily moved from one spot to another.

Blending in a television into the family room is a problem figured out in family room ideas. Instead of having a black screen in a light surface, the space can be left open. The wall can be covered with polished plaster and made to house the TV while at the same time provide a darker color with lots of texture and pattern. This disguises the TV without being too distracting.

For the setting up of an upbeat and playful tone to the space, family room ideas offer zebra stripes and fiery orange club chairs. For cleanliness and brightness, clean-lined furniture in delicious chocolate and toffee hues can be made to harmonize with crisp white walls and soothing neutrals.

Comfort is essential in family room ideas. Warmth and life is radiated by the clear, bright hues of sink-down seating and favourite flea market finds in a sprawling space. Upholstery fabrics can be made to take their color hues from a collection of antique amethyst to deep purple medicine bottles.

For a casual indoor-outdoor lifestyle, family room ideas suggest the opening of the family room onto a screened porch. Should the health and well-being of children be foremost in mind, an organic family room can be the option to take. Unfinished furnishings, untreated wool rugs, linen draperies, cotton slipcovers, hemp pillows and mineral based lime paint all contribute towards decorative balance and laid back charm.
