10 Gorgeous Living Rooms We All Want to Curl Up in With a Good Book

A living room should be comfortable and welcoming – when you walk in, you should want nothing more than to sink down onto a couch and put your feet up.

Royal Purple Treatment

To match the grandness of the ornate staircase climbing up one side of this living room, the decor had to be elevated as well. The plush purple-velvet couches reigned supreme.

Maxing and Relaxing

This Property Brothers: Buying and Selling property had so many bedrooms that Jonathan and Drew were able to covert this one into a bonus room – complete with a mini bar and big-screen TV.

Golden Opportunity

The bonus room – with its cool golden-disk artwork – even had enough space to create an elegant reading nook, as well as a full wall of useful built-in storage.

Huddle Up

The challenge with large, airy spaces such as this one is to make it still feel warm and welcoming – the Brothers achieved that with the use of plush oversized couches, tons of tonal throw pillows and natural materials.

On the Look Out

By setting a moveable leather ottoman under the window, Jonathan and Drew have effectively created a window seat – without having to pick up a hammer or drill.

Jonathan and Scott know that blue velvet paired with gold and warm wood-toned accessories really does make for a super chic colour combo. This living room is proof.

Water Sports

A subtle gallery wall of blue, white and brown watercolour paintings is the focal point of this chic sitting space, pulling together all the different shades of this dapper colour palette.

Drama Queen

The cool blue-grey colour on the walls provides the perfect water-inspired backdrop for the piece of dramatic art hung above the mantel. A glass coffee table is a smart choice since it won’t pull focus from the bold painting.
