Living room furniture

It is with this piece of furniture that we welcome our guests, that we organize our movie evenings and that we spend good times relaxing on Sunday afternoons.

There are many types of sofas on the market. Your choice will depend on several factors, such as the space you have at home, your budget and your needs. Here are the most popular sofa models in France:

sofa beds: These versatile sofas can be used as both a bed and a sofa.

corner sofa: corner sofas allow you to enlarge the space, freeing up the main aisle of the living room. This type of sofa is ideal for small living rooms.

ottoman: the main feature of an ottoman is that of its footrest. You can use it to elevate your legs and watch your favorite shows while relaxing.

You can also choose from several types of fabrics, such as polyester, velvet, linen, nylon, silk, etc. This will give you more flexibility in the style of your sofa and living room.

Coffee tables

The coffee table is an important piece of furniture that adds personality to your living room. The aesthetics, functionality and ergonomics of the coffee table allow you to unify all the armchairs and sofas in your living room, providing a surprising feeling of balance.

It also offers a useful surface for placing utensils when you receive guests. They can even be used as storage furniture. When choosing a coffee table for your living room, you need to consider many factors, such as size, material and style.

Libraries

A small home library helps create an inviting space in your home for reading and displaying books, enhancing the enjoyment of reading and showcasing your book collection.

Whether it’s a cozy reading nook in a living room or adaptable bookshelves, a bookcase will allow you to be creative with the existing space in your home. To create a small library, you’ll need to use clever storage solutions and make the most of the existing space.

Color palettes for the living room

Color can have a truly transformative effect in interior design, whether it’s paint on the walls or a beautiful piece of furniture or art. Choosing a color palette for your living room will therefore be one of the most important decisions you make in your home.

By choosing the right color palette, you will be able to reflect your desired style. At Micadoni, we recommend 3 main color palettes for your living room:

Neutral color palettes

Who says you need bold colors to impress? In the so-called “Scandinavian” interior style, neutral colors dominate. The goal of a neutral color palette in your living room is to create a warm space by moving away from cool tones. A mixture of white, beige and mineral colors will create a harmonious style.

This look is easiest to achieve when all the elements in your living room adopt the same neutral tones, whether it’s the wall paint or the natural wood furniture. Pure neutral colors are black, brown, gray and white. These are created by mixing two complementary colors.

Bright color palettes

It all depends on the atmosphere you want to give to your living room. Opt for pale shades of gray and blue for maximum lightening effect. If it’s warmth you’re looking for, however, don’t be afraid to use paint colors like yellow and orange: a sunny color palette can brighten and warm up a dark, dingy space.

Choose any shade of green to liven up a living room. There are so many shades (from vibrant bottle green to soft mint), there’s one for everyone. You can also choose softer shades, like pastel colors, to create a soft visual impact. Pair them with darker furniture and accessories to create balance with the light tones.

Monochrome color palettes

Monochrome rooms require a more precise approach. If you only use one color, you’ll have to repeat it throughout your living room, which can be difficult if you buy your furniture from different places. This is one of the reasons why Micadoni likes to create matching elements.

Color families can be just as difficult to manage. If you choose a warmer tone, when you have already worked with cool tones, you risk disrupting the entire aesthetic of your living room. With so many obstacles, why bother creating a monochrome space?

The answer is simple: because monochrome pieces, when done well, look absolutely stunning. Every monochrome space starts with a bold decision and ends with a dramatic look. You will find examples in our article dedicated to color palettes for the living room.
