4 essential types of living room

September 6,2021
Share:

Joy Onuorah

There are essentially four types of living room shapes:

Rectangular/long living room

With two elongated walls at both ends, rectangular-shaped living rooms can feel narrow, limited and claustrophobic but with good planning and understanding the space, this long space can become functional as well as fun. A good idea to this is to add bookshelves, built-in bar, or even a small writer’s desk area. 

This helps to give the room a purpose rather than solely intending to fill in space. Find small pieces of decor and a lot of them to rather fill in these zones. And this way the living room will give less of a hallway feel.

Square living room

Designing this kind of living room can be tricky. The idea is to not simply push all furnitures against the wall because this will leave the seating area far from each other and create a vacuum in the centre. Rather, experiment with colours and add texture to the walls to draw away from the confinement of the cluttered space.

Open living room

The best kind of living room that can be, it allows for ease of space and experimenting with proper placing of decor. Usually a space like this is divided into a dining area and a sofa place, but it could also give ample space for a lounge area or a bar unit place, or even a prayer place. To create an efficient layout, keep the flow around decor open so the family can be together and yet do numerous things at the same time.

L-shaped living room

A room like this is more than often used for hallway-and-seating-place or dining-and-seating-place.
