Traditional wood furnishings have long found a welcome home in living rooms, and Aico Furniture has many pieces from which to make your selections, when you are designing or redecorating a room. You will find various tones of wood, from light, which lends itself well in casual rooms, to the darker colors of wood, which are generally found in more formal rooms. The darker woods have become more preferred of late, because they lend a room such an elegant air. Wood furnishings are durable and the best have a high degree of skill in their craftsmanship as well, so that they will last for many years.
Some popular wood furniture for living rooms includes coffee tables, mirrors and bookcases or entertainment centers. Decorating with wood is not difficult at all, and many finish colors lend themselves to more than one type of room decor. There are various shades of available colors, from light pines to dark oak and walnut. You may also find woods that are stained different colors than that of the native wood, and these can also be very attractive. Darker woods work especially well with neutral wall and window treatment colors, so that one offsets the other.
Arranging your living room furniture is less trial and error than you might think. Many people with longer, narrow rooms line their sofas and chairs along the walls, thinking this will utilize the space most effectively, but it doesn't. It makes conversation more difficult. Pair chairs, loveseats and couches into groups, if you need to, in order to create cozy places where people can sit and chat.
Select comfortable sofas, loveseats or chairs from Aico Furniture, to keep your guests and family relaxed while they visit. Tables should be placed so that everyone has somewhere to set down a tray of snacks, while they're visiting. If you don't want water marks, be sure to leave out coasters, so your guests will know. Area rugs and other accent pieces can break up the darker colors and put in a splash of brightness, if you want a bit of contrast along with the neutral to dark transitions. Larger rugs work better for sofas and loveseats, and smaller rugs will look fine near smaller seating areas in the room.
Pale colored runners can be used on dark tables, to help them stand out a bit, and colors like rose or hunter green can illuminate darker brown colors in furniture. Your sofa may look more stylish with pillows or throws that have a bit of brighter coloring in them, or you can stay with the neutral to wood tone concept where sofas are concerned. Your entertainment center, if you have one in the room, will be an elegant and striking piece, and will add more of the dark tonal colors to the decor. Be sure you don't over-brighten with rugs or throws that the room loses its natural contrast and beauty. Use proper lighting sources and your living room will stand out like a showcase, with the best pieces from Aico Furniture.
