Living Rooms You'll Love - Part 7

Antique-Filled Living Room

In the living room, a Crate & Barrel sofa mingles with 19th-century French side chairs, a gold-leaf-embossed table from the 1940s, and a Persian rug.

Traditional Living Room

The living room’s built-in the show off a collection of vintage boxes in hues — honey, green, red — that echo the floral upholstery of her George Smith sofa. The leather bench was custom-made, and the handcrafted library stairs are antique.

Vermont Living Room

In this living room, a pair of leather club chairs and an ottoman, all by Bradington-Young, sit atop a Dash & Albert rug; the print over the fireplace reproduces a century-old lithograph of spores.

Lavender Living Room

A pair of slate-gray Lee Industries sofas and muted lavender walls set a soothing tone in this living room. The rug was found at an antiques store in Colorado and the ottoman at a Henry Road sale.

Living Rooms You'll Love - Part 6

Cabin Living Room

This cabin living room's palette consists of soft neutrals, to avoid cluttering the pint-size place with visual noise.

Pink Living Room

In this upstate New York home's living room, a Design Within Reach sleeper sofa earns its keep, allowing this space to multitask as a luxe guest room. Benjamin Moore's Peach Kiss covers the walls. Steel grommets punctuate West Elm's linen panels.

Den

This den's blue Chesterfield sofa was found at a local antiques store and the Union Jack pillow is from Etsy. An early-1900s oil portrait and a print of coursing greyhounds top the pine shelves. The sea-grass rug is by Home Decorator's Collection bargain.

Bright Idea: Two vintage side tables on casters function as a flexible alternative to the usual hulking coffee table.

Farmhouse Living Room

This living room's Lillian August chair and Crate & Barrel sofa, both slipcovered in classic white denim, get a graphic jolt thanks to a striped rug and diamond-patterned throw pillows. The 1930s baby grand was crafted by Wm. Knabe, Francis Scott Key's preferred piano maker.

Beach House Family Room

In this beach house's family room, a melon-colored coffee table by Seabrook Classics pops against neutral Lee Industries chairs. The faux-coral table lamp is from Pier 1, and the walls are painted "White Dove" by Benjamin Moore.

Accents of Color

Crisp white walls ("Whisper" by Dunn-Edwards) and color coexist in this California home's living room thanks to bookcases backed in vivid blue (similar to "Fantasy" by Olympic) and a fireplace clad in tiles by Ann Sacks. The Quatrine sofa sports a family-friendly slipcover. The rattan wing chairs are from Mecox Gardens, and the coffee table is actually a vintage wicker trunk.

Nautical Living Room

Slipcovered in white denim, a trio of Mitchell Gold + Bob Williams sofas offers ample seating in this New York cottage's living room. A dark, 19th-century Chinese coffee table was painted to better reflect light.

A DIY Living Room

This sea-grass rug in this North Carolina living room is from Hall's Flooring in Charlotte. A Goodwill find, this wingback chair got a makeover for an extra $12, courtesy of a canvas drop cloth.

Not Quite White

Slipcovered Shabby Chic sofas, heaped with hand-sewn pillows, flank this living room's fireplace. The leathered armchair is by Jean de Merry. A custom-made antler table is a nice touch, playing up the lodge-like interior. The walls are Benjamin Moore's Collingwood, a grayish-white hue, providing a softer look that a bright white. Adding a few choice color choices, like the blue plaid throw pillows gives the space a strong sense of color and pattern.

An Eclectic Living Room

This upstate New York home's living-dining area is furnished with a far-flung mix: Indonesian rush-back loungers, tin sconces from Mexico, and a Persian kilim rug. The farm table and its attendant cane-seat chairs, however, are locally sourced antiques.

Red White and Blue Accents

CL contributing editor Gena Sigala took this living room from "before" to "after" in a matter of hours. "I zero in on details that often get neglected," Sigala says. "They're the kind of finishing touches most people never quite get around to or aren't really sure how to do." Like a few artfully arranged objects on a shelf, an erudite stack of books, and — the dilemma that stumps everybody — throw pillows!

 A Tudor House's Den

In the den of this Tudor house, floral pillows by Louise Body dress up an estate-sale sofa. The coffee table was created by topping a gilded metal base with a flagstone paver.

Living Rooms You'll Love - Part 3

Modern Den

A pair of slipcovered CB2 sofas flank the den's stone fireplace in this Massachusetts cabin, accessorized with a handblown glass vase and a vintage kindling bucket.

Bright idea: Set a tray atop a sturdy pouf, like Roost's wood model, for a cool coffee table.

Cozy Seating

Appealingly asymmetrical built-ins—one with hidden storage, the other open—flank the great room's fieldstone fireplace in this Georgia lake house. French leather club chairs from Wyatt Childs, plus a pair of Mitchell Gold + Bob Williams sofas, serve up plenty of seating.



Historic Decor

In this Michigan cabin's great room, a flagstone fireplace displays a taxidermic buffalo head, vintage iron cookware, and Mexican and American pottery.

 Elegant Accents

The owner of this Georgia home shopped Stanton Home Furnishings, his own home-goods store, for the living room's corduroy-upholstered wing chairs, fern-print pillows, and antique demijohns. The drum-shaped ottomans are by Lee Industries; the oil portrait dates to the 1860s. The wall is painted Burlap by Ralph Lauren.

Bright idea: A bunch of dried magnolia leaves adds up to one lush garland. Get the step-by-step directions to make your own.

Exotic Details

A painted-wood Moroccan table strikes an exotic note in the living room of this California cottage. Paul Smith suiting wool covers the low-slung 1940s chair; baby-blue velvet updates the 1960s Dunbar sofa. The homeowner scored the flamboyant oil portrait at an estate sale.



Eclectic Accents

A supersize sampler by Dutch artist Reed van Brunschot greets guests in the living room of this California cottage. The homeowner created the window shades by having an 1890s botanical print transferred onto linen. (Voila Gallery prints antique botanical and zoological posters onto fabric. To choose from their 100-plus designs.

 A Study in Contrasts

In the living room of this Victorian home, the backdrop highlights the subtle contrasts of the homeowner's vintage scores: the hammered-zinc surface of the breakfast table against the cast-iron chandelier above it. The vivid blue feathers of a stuffed peacock against the worn wood of a century-old clock salvaged from a French train depot (all from the famed Parisian shop Deyrolle). The rough weave of a jute rug against nubby linen slipcovers.

 Subdued Palette

In this Atlanta loft's living room, Aidan Gray wingback chairs, upholstered in cotton and burlap, complement a sofa the homeowner found at a Paris flea market. She fashioned the coffee table (painted in Gothic Arch by Benjamin Moore) by cutting a farm table down to size, then painting it warm gray. A wooden stool from a Toronto thrift shop elevates a shadow-boxed heron. The Mongolian-lambhair pillow is by West Elm, the tie-dyed cushions by Kevin O'Brien.

Living Rooms You'll Love

These design ideas will help you transform your family room into a cozy retreat.

Blue Hues
In the living area of this Martha's Vineyard home, furnishings are awash in a sea of blues, but slight variations in tone and subtle patchwork motifs take the place of sharply contrasting patterns and hues. A patchwork rug from Nomadic Trading Company anchors the living area, furnished with linen sofas and a wingback chair by Cisco. The glass top on Groundwork's reclaimed-oak coffee table displays a collage of vintage art.



Broad Bookcases

In this California farmhouse, the living room's bookcases house treasured finds, including oil paintings from the 1930s, and a midcentury Bulova wall clock. A slipcovered armchair is accessorized with throw pillows from Collier West (zipper stripe) and Whim & Caprice (butterflies). The walls are painted Antique White by Kelly-Moore.




California Cozy

The homeowner of this California home painted the wooden Moroccan settee with basic gray primer and found the Berber rug in Marrakech. The large oil portrait is by contemporary Scottish painter Peter White, and the oak-and-steel coffee table hails from H.D. Buttercup. The swap-meet Chesterfield sofa was a flea market find reupholstered with Ikea linen.

Wood-Paneled Walls

A triptych of lake photographs by David Hilliard establishes a laid-back mood in the living area of this Connecticut home. Positioned behind the custom sofa, a stained-pine tavern table doubles as a desk. The turned-wood lamps are by Jamie Young. The door frame is painted Black Blue by Farrow & Ball.
