Irving Sofa and Chair

7 Finishing Touches To Complete Your Living Room

As a gathering space, it’s important that your living room is functional while still feeling like home. Once you’ve covered function with seating and surface space, it’s time to add the final design elements that transform a room and make it uniquely your own. Here’s our guide on what you will need to complete your most lived-in room.

1. Accent Tray

Complete your coffee table (or ottoman) with a versatile tray that can be used for organizing candles, stacking books or setting out coffee and tea. Our Heathered Black + White Raffia Tray is the perfect element to add to any living room surface. Or try one of our smaller entertaining pieces like the Grace Gray Serve Platter or Salon Tray for more versatility.

2. Bookstand or Magazine Rack

Create easy access to books + magazines with a simple bookstand or magazine rack. Our Rise Natural Bookstand displays books, magazines or records in an inventive way that adds an artful accent to the room. Need to save on space? The Analog Magazine Rack has just as much design appeal and can slide into a more compact area.

3. Storage Baskets

With our wide range of baskets, there are plenty of smart ways to store your extra blankets and pillows. Easily stack folded throws in our Natural Nido Floor Basket, or roll them up in our Tilden White Baskets.

4. Lighting

Make reading in your favorite chair a little easier with moveable lighting, like our Canal Black Floor Lamp. Equipped with a matte black steel base, arm, and adjustable shade with dip switch, it provides ample light and tilts according to your mood. Same goes for our Canal White or Copper Table Lamp that can be easily incorporated to brighten your space.

5. Benches + Stools

Extra seating is key in a space meant for gathering. A lightweight piece like the Spindle Bench can easily be placed at the back of a couch or against the wall when not in use. Alternatively, our Juniper Stool may be all you need to pull up a seat for your guests. Or try one of our most versatile pieces, the Woodrow Storage Stool, made for storing, seating, and extra surface space.

6. Throw Pillows

Don’t forget to add a colorful accent to your room. Throw pillows are the perfect opportunity to add texture and a design statement. Our Vintage Moroccan Throw Pillows are one of a kind and make a space completely unique. With covers sold separately, you can simply swap them out depending on the season. Our Sailor Zest pattern is always a Spring and Summer favorite while our Grid Knit Pillowcases add comfort and coziness for the colder months.

7. Planters + Vases

Add life into your room with some greenery. Our collection of planters and vases feature bold colors and creative designs that will naturally fill your space without adding clutter. While some pieces like our Oblique Planter function wonderfully on the floor, you can add an accent to your side table as well with our Hasami Planters or Hoop Vases.
