Whether you’re a fan of the eclectic, modern, contemporary or traditional style, these living rooms from all across the world are sure to have inspirations and ideas for you to steal from.
1. A large living room is segmented into two with the use of a fabulous partition. Framed in black, it is the differently shaped and sized Buddhist prayer wheels that are the show-stealers in this space. This primarily white room gets accents in brown with furniture pieces, the framework of the windows and the wood-framed mirror walls on its other side. Neat.
2. This living room oozes decadence and luxury. The subtle patterned accent wall and the equally subtle but detailed ceiling design complement the rest of the decor. Ornate furniture is coupled with metallic sheens and aged woods. A lighter shade of upholstery has been used on the sofas, compared to the drapes. This keeps this room with big windows light, while the dark drapes and the carpet bring depth and definition to the living area.

3. This cosy and inviting living space balances modern sensibilities with a carefree, offbeat style. The bespoke wooden furniture pieces, the warm colours of the upholstery, the earthy accessories and the panelled walls add vintage drama to a modern corner.

4. Here is a lucky homeowner who has a double-height wall made of glass. This height has been cleverly managed by dividing the panels into sections that can be opened.
In itself, this corner space is rather small, but you’ll never know it because of the tall height and the light streaming in, creating a sense of abundance. The rest of the mood is vibrant with eclectic fabrics, colourful rug and furniture pieces, and a blue wall (at left). The white brick wall opposite continues upwards and balances with its calm the busy effect of the gadgetry.

5. Natural light streaming through the windows keeps this living room well lit up. The white walls take a back seat, allowing the colours from outside to dictate terms in this space. The greens of the sofa and the giant petals on the black carpet are borrowed from the outdoors.
6. This room is kept minimal, with the use of plush low sofas matched with a few top-end, glossy elements like the marble fireplace, the round white table, the chandelier and the centre table. The portrait on the wall has been placed at a level that makes it easy to view from the low sofas and adds a folksy feel to the room. Carpeting dictates the furniture arrangement. The whimsical dry ferns in the vase on the corner of the mantle are, for me, the ultimate testament to the art of holding back.
7. The homeowner is definitely a fashionista, right? The living room seems to take a wonderful bite out from the ever-loved sets of Breakfast at Tiffany’s. The wall colour has been kept neutral, along with an indulgent furry, soft carpet – a good idea for prepping a base to hold contrasting patterns and bolder colours. This study of a living room in black and white gets a colour break in the form of a pink velvet sofa. What makes the room unforgettable, though, are the accessories – the shoes and handbags, especially.

8. This living room is an admirable blend of traditional and modern elements coming together. An accent wall in brown adds more texture to a space vibrant with patterns. Indian motifs on a chair, tie-dye on a carpet, the Maharaja canvases and the traditional lamps are juxtaposed with modern pendants, a granite centre table and glossy flooring.

9. This sunken living room boasts custom furniture with its built-in couch. The wood of the couch, along with the hardwood floors, brings the outdoors in. So does the accent wall made of natural stone that makes it look like a cabin in the mountains.
