Summer is the time when our interiors need a bit of refreshment and brightness. The living room, which is the heart of the house, should exude lightness and comfort to become an ideal place for summer relaxation. So how can you transform your living room and adapt its style to the current season? Below are some practical tips.
Bright and light fabrics
In summer, it is worth choosing light and airy materials that will add freshness to the interior, such as silk or linen. Replace heavy curtains with light curtains or blinds in pastel colors. The sofa and armchairs can gain a new look with covers in light shades. Don't forget about decorative pillows with floral or tropical motifs. Those in white, blue and shades of yellow will also work perfectly.
Green plants
Potted plants are a great way to liven up your interior. In summer, choose those that tolerate sun and high temperatures well, such as succulents, ferns and philodendrons. A bouquet of cut peonies, tulips or carnations will also be a great accent in the living room. It will allow you to bring nature inside and enjoy the unique scent of your favorite flowers.
Comfortable accessories
Summer accessories such as woven wicker baskets for newspapers or cotton blankets will make the living room not only stylish but also functional. Choose natural materials that are airy and pleasant to the touch. In summer, it is worth giving up heavy, massive furniture in favor of those with a lighter structure. The glass table and rattan chairs will look modern and will not overwhelm the space. Replace the classic armchair with a hanging bamboo swing or a pile of soft, comfortable pillows. Hang macrame and decorative plates with sea motifs on the wall to create a holiday atmosphere.
