If you don’t entertain often, but spend a lot of time together with your family, a traditional design is usually best. A leather Chesterfield sofa, walls of shelving, and antique decorations create a warm, comforting living environment that lends itself to relaxation. This is the type of living room that feels like home.

If you like to entertain friends and guests, a contemporary living room might serve your needs better. Sparse room design is usually more accommodating of large groups – this type of room can handle foot-traffic better, with less chance of something getting knocked over.

Consider these points and take a look at the pictures above. Which style can you envision in your own home?
