If the style of the project is modern, opt for frames with abstract, geometric themes, or even black and white photos. For those who prefer a more classic style, frames with golden borders and more traditional works may be the ideal choice. Additionally, in a more rustic or industrial style, frames with raw wood borders or metallic finishes can bring the charm and authenticity that the space needs.

You can opt for large plants in decorative vases for a more impactful effect or use smaller plants on shelves and side tables to add a touch of delicacy. The choice of vase is also fundamental.
Ceramic, glass, cement, or even metal vases can complement the style of the living room, while plants like succulents, ferns, monstera, and orchids are great options to complete the project.
In addition to being decorative, pillows and blankets bring comfort and coziness to the living rooms. They can be used on the sofa to add a touch of color and softness, in addition to allowing the creation of different combinations of patterns and textures.
Rooms with a neutral base can use blankets and pillows to add a vibrant splash of color. Opt for materials like velvet, linen, knit, or embroidered that can complement different types of decor, bringing sophistication and a handcrafted touch to the composition.

Ornaments are decorations for living rooms that can be used strategically to give personality to the project. They can be small details, such as candles, sculptures, art books, or even vintage objects.
A good tip is to choose objects that have personal significance, such as travel souvenirs or special gifts, as this adds even more authenticity to the decor. You can opt for handcrafted pieces, which can be purchased at fairs or art markets, or modern and contemporary pieces that stand out in the decor.

Pendant lamps with modern or classic designs can be used to highlight the coffee table or the sitting area, while table lamps can be positioned on side tables to create a cozy and intimate project.

Both the rug on the floor and the tapestry on the wall serve as decorations for the living room, adding comfort and elegance to the projects. They can be used to delimit spaces, create a sense of coziness and add texture to the floor.
Rugs made of natural fibers, such as sisal or jute, are perfect for a more rustic style, while wool rugs or those with geometric patterns can be ideal for modern projects.
