1. Minimal Wood-Inspired Living Space
This airy brown living room is spacious and minimal, with a single chaise sectional sofa in beige and a small cocktail table. The black wood-burning stove is the focal point of the space, and it is surrounded by natural wood paneled walls and ceiling. I love all the modern globe pendants hanging from the ceiling; they seem like an art installation and add a layer of depth to the decorating ideas.

This cozy rustic living space features asymmetrical wood-framed windows and solid stone fireplace. You can lounge in the modern caramel brown leather sofa or lounge chair and stare out those picture windows onto the gorgeous greenery and water. Large antlers hang high above the brown sofa, and framed Elvis art above the fireplace completes the simple and cozy design.
3. Cozy Brown & White Living Room
Lots of great textures are layered in this cozy living room design. I love the brown accent wall and backboard around the fireplace; it pops off the light Moroccan-style tile. All the white books and accessories really complement the dark wood built-ins. The blue patterned rug layered under the Mid-Century chair, and Burlwood coffee table adds depth and style to the room.

The floor and walls are covered in medium-tone wood, and the custom media cabinet spans the entire wall in a more rustic wood. A large gray sectional sofa provides ample seating, and the recessed lights and black arched floor lamp add ambient lighting to complete the design.
6. Refined Sophisticated Living Room
This refined living room is meticulously curated, which creates a sophisticated overall design. I love the brown wall as an accent color, which sets the tone for a warm, yet dramatic look. The furniture is an eclectic mix of an upholstered sofa and settee paired with a velvet armchair and leather ottomans. I think the layering of the vintage rug and patterned drapes add so much texture to the design. The beautifully placed olive tree, gallery-like wall art, and lighting choices really complete this sophisticated living space.

This elegant and charming living room is painted in a rich brown tone that allows the white armchairs to pop into the design.

I love the accent pieces: the printed ottoman is used as a cocktail table between the smaller chairs, and the antique coffee table is a great choice to complete the decor.
