Modern Furnishings Design to Get an Urban Living Room Style

Modern furnishings are enjoying an upswing in popularity. For the modern urban-style living room look, try dark brown or shiny black wood finishes. Think metals, glass and ceramics as accent pieces. Decorate with leather sofas and sectionals and tables made of wood and metal. If your living room space is especially small, consider having no sofa at all. Place arm chairs, club chairs, lounge chairs and love seats in different sizes and numbers around a focal point like a fireplace, TV or a leather ottoman serving double duty as a coffee table. Use plenty of pillows in different textures and colors. Display pop art on the walls. Pick up living room pieces made in Belgium, Italy and Scandinavia.
