5 Design Tips to Elevate a Warm & Collected Living Room * Mix Your Textures Cozy doesn’t have to mean cluttered. Layering textured fabrics like boucle, knits, wood, and stone keeps a neutral palette from falling flat. Think: soft chairs, rustic wood, and a chunky throw. * Stick to an Earthy Color Story Less color, more depth. This room feels cohesive because the palette stays within warm neutrals and deep moody tones — no bold pops needed when texture and tone do the talking. * Ground the Space with Black Accents A little contrast goes a long way. The black coffee table and console table in my living room add weight and structure to the softness around it. Don’t be afraid to anchor a room with darker elements. * Think Vertically Design up, not just out. Make sure to hang your curtains high and layer your wall art. Playing with scale like this draws the eye up and makes the space feel elevated. * Style with Purpose Everything doesn’t have to be new — just meaningful. Vintage baskets, worn books, and handmade ceramics add soul to this room. It’s not about perfection — it’s about character.
