Traditional living room design calls for soft lighting to give the room a dramatic feel. The Color palettes in a traditional living room include combination such as burgundy and gold, hunter green and burgundy, and other richly toned hues. Emphasize your living room's color scheme by using repeated colors and patterns on drapes and upholsteries. Make sure your design is elegant and not redundant.
If we see the architectural and also furniture designs from 18th and 19th century Europe, we can say that the living room was dominated with traditional style. English styles such as Hepplewhite, Queen Anne, and Chippendale are also commonly designed in traditional living rooms.

Modern Trends and Design Ideas For Living Rooms
The Living room is one of the most important rooms while doing the interior design of your house. The living room interior reflects your taste and the interior designer’s capabilities at the first step. The choice of colors and accessories is one of the most important factors in designing your living room. You need to understand what are the primary and tertiary colors and the basic principle of mixing them to get better shades. The sofa and other furniture that you use and the material they are made of is also an important factor. Apart from that the flooring that you select be it marble, tiles or wood it should go with the entire room interior.

Lake Minnetonka Residence
Sleek and modern in Malibu
Designed by Rockefeller Partners Architects this house is located off a walk street with great views of the Pacific Ocean and Malibu coastline. Its design is all about a careful space planning. The site is a narrow 30×60-foot area but it includes not only the house but also a garden. This garden is an open green space in the center of the structure at the ground floor level. On one side of this area is a children’s room and a master’s bedroom with a bath. Not only this Zen garden makes the interior to be closer to nature. There are a lot of woodwork that also do so and adds a touch of comfort to the house. [ Rockefeller Partners Architects | Photography by Eric Staudenmaier ]

Beautiful in white
National Symphony Orchestra ShowhouseThe modern walnut Parsons table, a trio of sleek steel pendant lights, and a pared-down tablescape are blended with grand wing chairs. "Balancing old things with new things gives a room great energy," says designer Michael Roberson.
White . . . minimalist, magical, or a little of both? The question remains if white qualifies as a real color or not. Some designers wouldn't think of creating a room sans pigment-laden appointments. Others use it as a foolproof mechanism for sophistication. In bedrooms, white and variations of it lead the way to a restful snooze. Dining rooms with white as their palettes sing in refinement and class. Teamed with black, and high-glass elements, the color reads glamorous and seductive. Warm white offers comfort. Feast your eyes on these colorless treats from showhouses across the country.

This gentleman's room commands attention with its two-tone paletteand tailored canopy that envelops the beds.
In soft impressionistic strokes, the painting above a settee and two chairs in the room's gathering area introduce the only note of color--a delicate lilac--in an otherwise tightly composed symphony of ivory and gray.

Eclectic Great room
Megan and Mark Sutherland's home in Overland Park, Kans., strikes just the right balance between a gracious country house with old-world details and a relaxed family home that always welcomes. Drawing on her love of the English countryside, her sense of color, and her previous business as an antiques dealer, Megan made a new house (built 13 years ago) feel convincingly like a century-old home.

for this town house in Brooklyn.
All the way from the UK
Today let us enjoy the work of UK based interior designer Helen Green. A look that is lean, clean and classic yet seductive and inviting. The palette is subdued, with rich, understated fabrics reflecting in polished surfaces, recalling the sleek glamor of the thirties; hushed, pristine and relaxed.
