Power Neutrals Ten of the best serene, composed and relaxing living rooms
T ransform your living room into a tranquil yet light-filled cocoon that soothes and revitalizes its occupants by employing multiple tones of creams and whites – or ultra-pale pastel shades – in combination with natural textures and details. TONE ON TONE Situated in an apartment with a layered aesthetic that is designed for laid-back family holidays, this living room’s original period features – including traditional floor tiles and pressed ceilings – enliven a neutral palette of creams, beiges and pale bamboo tones. An inviting L-shaped couch prompts thoughts of lazy lounging, and the walls have been plastered but left unpainted, giving them a subtly textured look. Tip This effortlessly easygoing apartment is owned by Danish designer Tine Kjeldsen, and the tin-framed mirrors, couch, rattan coffee table, side table, wooden stools, brass table lamp, throws and cushions are all pieces from her eponymous homeware brand, Tine K Home (tinekhome.com).
