Black and white is a nice, comforting color scheme to work in, but make sure that you add in some pops of different colors, even if it's just in the different browns and tans in the chairs and sofa.

Finally, if you too have a fireplace, try to use that as the focal point of the room.

Imperfect Balance - Country Living Room Ideas

Imperfect Balance

Symmetry is the name of the game with this living room. As your eyes travel from the picture frame down to the rest of the living room, you can see how some features are directly parallel to one another, while others are only "mostly parallel" in a technique called "asymmetry." This orderly setup is a reminder of older homes, where everything has a place and is in its place. However, elements of cozy design fill the room with the blanket over the plush chair, and the books serve as an invitation to sit and stay a while.

When you're stylizing a room, keep in mind that having a clear focal point is one of the key ideas of any design style.

One way to avoid making the room feel cluttered is to group those items intentionally, and to make sure that as opposed to having a million and one completely different items, incorporate multiples of items that are in the same family--like the multiple picture frames and multiple strands of beads in this living room.

Geometry's Cool

The warm, bright colors on the wall both harken to English country and modern styles by being a shade that is bright enough to make a statement, but subtle enough to blend well with the neutral color pallet of the room. To unify all the pieces in this small area, the wall decor all has elements of geometry. The most obvious examples are the triangles in the rug, pouf, and pillow, but the side table and chair also incorporate straight lines to add to the lines of the room. Using shapes intentionally like this living room does is a very effective way to create a cohesive feeling. Even if your guest doesn't immediately notice those subtle details, the feeling of unity won't be lost on them.
