The living room is the room for gathering guests at the festive table and a place for family relaxation while watching TV. Everyone wants to make it more comfortable, warm, and conducive to relaxation. An important role in this issue should be given to the choice of upholstered and cabinet furniture.
Types of cabinet furniture for the living room
It is important to understand that the living room is not a room for exhibiting the best design solutions in the furniture industry. Do not oversaturate it with unnecessary bulky elements. The room should remain spacious, bright, and interior items should be functional.
Modern living rooms can be equipped with such elements as:
- wall (slide);
- TV stand;
- dresser;
- buffet;
- bookcase;
- coffee table
When furnishing, you should definitely take into account the square footage of the room: the smaller it is, the fewer items should be there.
Criteria for furniture in the living room
The main requirements that the furniture of a meeting room must meet are:
- multi-functionality;
- ergonomics;
- practicality and durability;
- environmentally friendly;
- aesthetic appeal;
- compliance with the overall style of the house.
A set that meets all of the above points will please the eye throughout its entire lifespan, remain cozy and conducive to pleasant communication.
Which source material should you prefer?
Products are made from materials:
- Chipboard;
- MDF;
- solid wood.
The first two options relate to budget raw materials and are not natural, since they are obtained artificially from wood waste. The highest quality, prestigious, but expensive cabinet furniture is made from natural wood. The starting material can be high-strength, expensive species with a dense structure, for example: oak, beech, hornbeam, walnut. So are cheaper, but less wear-resistant – pine, spruce, fir, larch, alder and others. The undeniable advantages of natural wood include:
- ecological cleanliness;
- reliability and practicality;
- aesthetics.
Natural materials such as glass, mirror, metal, stone can also be used in production.
