1. Rustic farmhouse living room with plants

Gray rustic farmhouse living room is decorated with small potted plants. This gives the space a cozy, natural feel. The plants also serve as an excellent way to add color to the room without painting or altering the existing décor.

2. Grays and whites contrast against the navy

As a general rule, the darker your room is, the more you'll need to light it. In this living room, white walls are offset by gray furniture and décor. The navy accents add a bold touch that keeps the space from feeling too restrained or narrow. If you can't paint your walls (or they're not brick), consider hanging up some art in navy hues on plain white frames. If you still want to bring in some reds and oranges but don't want them to feel too intense, try softening their impact with pieces like pillows or throw blankets that have other colors mixed into them.

A pair of red curtains or runner across one window will add warmth without overwhelming the overall look of the room. A pair of orange lamps on either side of an accent table would provide ample lighting while still keeping things dark

3. White crown molding with gray walls

You can use crown molding to highlight the ceiling, especially if you're working with a lighter-colored wall color and want to add some contrast. If you are going for an open floor plan, keep in mind that the crown molding should be consistent across all three areas of your luxury living room furniture. The white crown molding breaks up the gray walls and gives this space more character.

4. Wooden ceiling beams for visual interest

One of the most prominent features of this room is its wooden ceiling beams, which have been painted white to lighten up the space. The wood beam accents are also used as a design element in other areas of the room like on top of the sofa and next to it, making them very noticeable and adding visual interest.

5. Wrapped window in barn wood

Wrapping the windows in barn wood will add a rustic vibe to your living room. You can do this by buying ready-made panels, or if you're handy with a saw, you can measure and cut the wood yourself to fit each window.

Once your panels are done, install them over the existing window frame. For added security, use small nails or screws so that they can be removed easily if needed later on.

6. A long bench underneath the window

A long bench was added underneath the window in this room. This gave the space extra seating for guests and helped to create a cozy atmosphere.

A large wreath was hung above the mantel in this living room to add texture and color to the space. A large mirror placed on either side of a fireplace can also do wonders for making a small room appear larger than it is, especially if it is used as a focal point for decorating.

7. A large painting hangs above the mantel

A large painting hangs above the mantel in this modern farmhouse living room. The canvas is framed by a white frame that contrasts with the rest of the decor, making it stand out even more.

The gray walls are broken up by wooden beams on either side or a crown molding along the ceiling line, which creates visual interest and helps define different areas of the room.

8. A large wreath above the mantel

A large wreath was hung above the mantel in this living room to add texture and color to the space. This space is magnificently decorated and it’s so easy to see why. There are so many different elements that come together seamlessly. But if you look closely you can also see how they work together as a whole. The neutral color palette, light furniture pieces, hardwood floors and rustic accessories create a warm atmosphere that makes you want to take off your shoes and curl up on the couch with a good book or two.

9. An old wooden crate and a coffee table

You can also use an old wooden crate as a coffee table. This specific example was repurposed into a table by adding legs and a glass top. It’s a fairly inexpensive way to add some rustic charm to your living room.

Just be sure that the wood is sturdy enough to support the weight of the glass top. Make sure there are no sharp edges sticking out of the crate before you place it in your home.

10. A gray sectional sofa with a large ottoman

A gray sectional sofa was added to this living room with a large ottoman. The neutral color of the sofas will complement any décor and allow you to use it in the future if you decide to change your color scheme.

11. An artificial plant behind the couch

When you're decorating with a limited color palette, it's important to find ways to add visual interest and contrast. One of the easiest ways to do this is by using different textures. In this living room, a white crown molding was added over the gray walls and ceiling beams were added for texture and visual interest. The white furniture also adds contrast against the navy accent wall and flooring.

The greenery in this space is an artificial plant that has been placed behind the couch for easy maintenance. A huge plus if you want to enjoy your home without having to worry about watering plants or trimming them regularly.
