ideas for south facing dull living room
Comments (12)It looks like you like brown and it does contrast with the floor which is good (yin/yang). Adding a tall halogen lamp in the corner between the wall and the sofa would help you to read and help your eyes when you are watching the TV. The room would also welcome a lush plant in the South west where it can thrive or a bouquet of silk flowers in pink and white . A coffee table, preferably oval or a puff in the middle of the carpet will help conversations flowing. Avoid putting everything against the walls as your energy runs out of the window. As it is the south, you can add candles, perhaps scented ones too. The picture on the wall is too small in proportion to the size of the room. A red sunset or sunrise, a field of flowers, an image of trees, would give the room a happy lift. Browns can be complimented in the south with reds, orange, greens. White or cream walls would be better than grey. Too much of the same color in a room creates a dull effect and a boring life. So just add accessories in the colors that appeals to you. I would not recommend blues but yellows, oranges, or greens. Just a touch here and there, a throw, two cushions, a red lampshade. Perhaps some floral curtains rather the stripes that are too symmetric and promotes arguments. Add a pair in the Southwest for love. Have fun....See MoreWallpaper for my bright south facing room
Comments (3)Can you please add some pictures? Possibly you could use a more textured wallpaper. Some colors are a lot more weather resistant than others, depending on their chemistry. Dyes and fluorescent are a definite no go, fade too fast. Look for higher quality wallpapers, screen printed ones that usually have higher light fastness....See Morehow to control light, heat and glare in South facing room
Comments (12)What did everyone do re aircon or blinds? We were considering renting our house out at some point but it gets hot in summer which is not an issue for living here as you can open the doors slightly and it cools straight away but for guests - it's not that easy. Thinking of blackout blinds for sleeping but are there sheer ones which keep the light but reflect the heat?? Also aircon - anything not big and ugly that would work in a large open plan room?...See MoreLiving room, south facing . 1930,s bungalow
Comments (4)Hi Joyce Photo any images online, that you like as a source of inspiration for the room? I understand that you’d like a coastal scheme. Would something like the following be of interest? As these rooms have the nice Sandy sort of look with the light neutral coloured walls. Adding to the natural light of the room, whilst implementing a subtle touch of blue and green, through plants and soft furnishings. Greens and Blue are quite strong colours, so would need to be implemented in the right way to not come across too aggressive, unless of course that’s what you’re going for. If you could draw out the room layout, I'd be happy to help you with position of your furniture. I hope these help you, I'd be happy to assist with your design should you need any further help or advice! @KerryBryanInteriors...See Morevsmama
