Classical style living room - how to arrange it?

The classic living room is a space that resists passing trends. Its timeless character, determined by noble materials and thoughtful composition, makes it synonymous with both sophisticated style and everyday comfort.

But how do we decorate a classic-style living room in our home? The right furniture, combining elegance with functionality, will help to create a successful arrangement, which will be complemented by carefully selected decorations. These, in turn, will easily emphasise the individual character not only of the interior, but also of the occupants.

CLASSIC LIVING ROOM - WHAT ARE ITS CHARACTERISTICS?

The classic style is one of the oldest styles used in interior design. Its roots go back to antiquity and its evolution over the centuries has always been based on unchanging fundamentals: elegance, muted colours, functionality and high comfort.

Nowadays, the classic style is all about moderation and harmony, which manifests itself in balanced proportions, refined materials and not too flashy colours. Such a space can therefore be described as minimalist, in which every element has its place and specific task, and this means that there is no room for coincidences.

HOW TO FURNISH A CLASSIC LIVING ROOM?

In a classic living room, the basic furnishings are symmetrically arranged furniture, which can additionally be helpful in the traditional division of space. They should clearly separate the lounge area with a sofa, armchairs and coffee table from the dining area.

When decorating a classic-style living room, it is definitely worth following the principle of less is more. Instead of colourful decorations, choose elegant tableware, green plants and natural materials in the form of curtains, bedspreads or soft carpets.

THE BASIS OF AN ARRANGEMENT: DURABLE FLOORING AND HIGH-QUALITY DOORS

The key to creating a successful arrangement in the classic style is to choose not only the right furniture, but also how to finish the entire space. We are talking about the floor, walls and doors, which will form the foundation for the rest of the décor.

The elegant floor can be made of wooden parquet or panels arranged in a herringbone pattern. In a classic living room, Rega vinyl panels will find their place, which, thanks to EIR technology, faithfully reflect natural wood, while offering high durability and resistance to possible scratches or damage.

The walls of a classic living room can be covered with light paint in shades of beige, white or soft grey. In addition, it is worth decorating them with wood-coloured Linerio panels. The robust decoration will bring a touch of warmth to the interior and make the wall visually more three-dimensional.

Doors also have to play their part in this design puzzle , especially if the living room is an enclosed space. Those who prefer ornamentation may opt for the Fresto model with milled details, which is a nod to classic door woodwork. On the other hand, those who prefer minimalism will be delighted with the Matto door, which, in addition to its original aesthetics, improves interior acoustics and effectively muffles the sounds coming from the rest of the house. A door from the Uppsala collection, with its rare vertical line pattern, can become an ornament of a room. In combination with Linerio panels, they will visually add a few extra centimetres to a low room.

SELECTION OF FURNITURE FOR A CLASSIC STYLE LIVING ROOM

Furniture with simple, elegant forms will work well in a classic living room. However, we do not have to choose only wooden solids, which until recently were associated with classic decor. Furniture from the Creative collection will work well in a modern, classic living room. Spacious bookcases, charming display cabinets or functional sideboards will accommodate all the necessary things, and additionally will charm the household members and invited guests with their originality. All you need to do is match the glass cabinet with elegant knobs or finish a dark bookcase with light-coloured legs.

In the relaxation area, comfortable sofas without a reclining option, such as Milo or Lark, are ideal. Deeper and softer seats provide greater comfort and true relaxation without compromise. Instead, the graceful Sophie and Duvet upholstery in dark velour upholstery will add extra elegance to the interior.

CLASSIC LIVING ROOM ACCESSORIES - INSPIRATION

The right accessories will come in handy in implementing ideas for a classic living room. Hang pictures and photo frames on the walls to create a small gallery of memories. A glass vase can be placed on the table or sideboard to hold a bouquet of fresh flowers in spring and summer and spruce branches in winter. The Gunnar tall container with a decorative, textured finish and the Bruni vase in an original brown colour will both work in a classic style living room.

Add a touch of cosiness with candles, soft comforters, cushions or linen curtains. Don't be afraid to use bolder colours such as gold, copper or black in your decor. When combined with white and beige, they will create a harmonious and classic duo.

LAMPS TO COMPLETE A CLASSIC LIVING ROOM

When arranging a classic living room, we think of a space that will serve us for years to come, regardless of current trends. That's why it's worth taking care of thoughtful lighting that will provide comfort on a daily basis and please the eye for a long time.

The reading corner should be illuminated with the Strapo floor lamp made from natural materials, and the Lou dresser lamp, which impresses with its ceramic base in a beautiful, classic shape, should be placed on the sideboard or cupboard. An additional point of light should be placed above the table. Opt for a Libra lamp with several light points or an adjustable shade.
