If you want to discern the mood of an interiors scheme, the living room is the first place you should look. As one of the rooms people are likely to spend the most time in (except the kitchen), they're often the best reflection of an owner's tastes – as well as that of their designer.
As such, this means that designers often throw everything they have at a living room, using them to introduce key color palettes or celebrate trending pieces (daybeds, anyone?) – and in the process, these design-forward living room ideas act as a waypost for the way we'll be decorating.
