How to arrange a seating area
in the living room? relax in your own way

The living room is the place where family and social life takes place. This space must accommodate the needs and emotions of everyone in the household. In the interest of balance, it is worth creating a small relaxation area in the living room. An appropriately arranged place for relaxation will allow you to catch your breath and calm your thoughts at times, at others it will allow you to express yourself creatively or strengthen bonds with loved ones.

Everyone has their own recipe for successful relaxation at home. Some need to spend a few minutes alone with their favourite book, while others need to watch a film in the company of loved ones. Whichever way we enjoy time to ourselves, it is worth ensuring that the moment is given the right setting. By choosing comfortable furniture and complementing the corner with personal accessories, we will create a space full of harmony to which we will gladly return.

How do you relax at home? In your own way!

Relaxation does not always come easily to us, so it is worth creating friendly circumstances for relaxation. Only in a well-adapted space can we feel completely comfortable. Let's think about how we like to spend our free time, and then take a close look at our living room.

It can be a meeting place, a work space or a playroom for our children. So it is not always possible to create an arrangement that is entirely devoted to relaxation. In this case, try to dedicate at least a small part of the living room to relaxation. To create such a corner, use multifunctional and lightweight furniture, which can be easily moved to another location if necessary.

We can put a cup of warm tea on the Handy table, which will gladly go with us to the terrace, and put the newspaper we are currently reading in the metal basket by the Conffi sofa. This series of lounge furniture can easily adapt to our rhythm of life. With a few modules, we can quickly turn the armchairs into a chaise longue or a spacious sofa with footrest. All you need to do is add a pouffe and you are done! From a space for solitary relaxation, we can create a royal sofa to accommodate a whole group of friends.

Relaxation room at home - comfort rules here

A space should be built with relaxation in mind right from the start. So take special care in choosing the colours that will appear in the living room - not only on the furniture and accessories, but also on the walls and floor. Let them create a mood that is conducive to our favourite activities.

Creativity when playing with children can be aided by bright shades of blue or green, bringing us closer to nature. Dark colours such as indigo, graphite or brown will bring an intimate atmosphere to the relaxation room at home. On the other hand, warm whites and beiges will promote peace and quiet. A cosy atmosphere is created by a sound-absorbing wooden floor with wooden décor and Linerio panels on the wall, which further create a quieter atmosphere.

Let's also make sure there are a multitude of textures to enhance relaxation. Pleasant surfaces will allow us to introduce functional accessories - a rug underfoot or a warm blank et at hand. When choosing accessories, choose those made of natural materials with a timeless design. This way, they can accompany our moments of relaxation for years to come.

Even if your relaxation will not last long, it is worth preparing for it. Remember to ventilate the room and silence your phone notifications. If you find it difficult to separate yourself from the hustle and bustle of the house, put on your headphones. The sound of rain or birdsong will lull you into a state of blissful relaxation.

Let's not forget the lighting either. In the relaxation area, it is advisable to place a lamp with a warm or neutral coloured bulb, close to the natural lighting. If possible, introduce more than one light source. Soft, diffused lighting like no other will build a soothing atmosphere conducive to relaxation.

A seating area in the living room with space for everyone

The living room is a space for everyone in the house. It is worth bearing this in mind when furnishing the relaxation area as well. When choosing furniture, pay attention not only to its appearance, but also to its functionality. This will save us unnecessary stress and nerves.

In a home with young children, it is impossible to avoid stains from spilled juices or tea. To make cleaning a breeze, choose armchairs and sofas upholstered in stain-resistant, washable fabrics. Pet lovers can opt for fabric that is additionally claw-resistant. Relaxing with your beloved pet will become carefree from now on. When ordering lounge furniture from the VOX range, you can choose the perfect upholstery for your needs.

What piece of furniture is perfect for relaxing? Take relaxation to a higher level with the Stan two-seater rocking chair. It has been designed to make both solitary moments and time spent together with your child as enjoyable as possible. The wide seat invites you to relax, while the back and forth rocking skids soothe our senses and, together with the side rocking footrest, stimulate neural activity.

If you need space for an extra household member, choose the Slide sofa, whose layout can be freely rearranged. The movable seats allow us to obtain both a traditional sofa and a two-sided sofa. This allows us to decide whether we want to relax together or separately. The Stello corner sofa, with its subtly curved shapes, will ensure that there is plenty of seating for everyone. By deciding on the finish of its decorative trim, we will emphasise the character of the living room arrangement.

For some of us, disorder prevents us from relaxing. So it's a good idea to make sure that everything in the living room has its own place. The Simple chest, which can also be used as a coffee table, or the clever, lockable boxes from the Balance collection will prove useful. They will have plenty of space for toys and other accessories that like to multiply.

Tailor-made relaxation corner - personalise your relaxation area

When creating the relaxation room of your dreams at home, it is impossible to overlook the most important consideration - personal accessories. These will make even a space that is not quite tailored to our needs into a place where we truly relax. From a cushion that fits our body to a snack tray, every detail matters.

Your favourite lanterns and candle holders will provide a pleasant atmosphere. The magic of the evening is enhanced by the Lento and Vivo candles, which diffuse the energising scent of bergamot orange and the enveloping aroma of sandalwood. Those who are sensitive to scents can choose completely unscented variants to enjoy the sight of dancing flames.

If you feel most comfortable among plants, try to find space for pots of green pets and cut flowers. Glass vases will help to display them aesthetically and will also gently reflect the light, making the seating area bright and charming.

Remember that relaxation can have many facets. When creating a relaxation area in the living room, make sure that it is a joy to use. Choose favourite colours, pleasant textures and safe, hard-wearing materials - so that everyone in the house, including children and pets, can enjoy a carefree break. And let's make sure the interior is suitably soundproofed with the help of upholstered wall panels, which warm up the space and provide additional soundproofing. Let's think about all the senses - any surrounding texture or scent can make it easier to relax at home.
