A place of gathering, entertaining, socialization, or just pure relaxation. A living room space can serve many purposes and is often the focal point of a home’s design, because of that, sometimes it can be a bit overwhelming to conceive the perfect atmosphere. However, choosing the right color palette is an important first step. Discover some of the most beautiful living room design ideas and color combinations, from subtle and cozy to daring and confident by some of the world’s top interior designers.
Blue & Grey
In this living room design, Jean-Louis Deniot applies a subdued Neoclassical palette of bluish greys and pale mushroom with an update of fresh white to the bones of the room. A pop of rich blue in the form of a velvet sloped arm sofa and the contemporary artwork gives the space punch. And the rest of the room isn’t any less incredible.

Pink & Grey
Brendan Wong often creates contrast in his projects by injecting neutral spaces with vibrant accents – emerald green against white, mustard against black, electric blue against the grey. Here the designer proves just how smart pink and purple can be used in living room color combinations. The color hues, sometimes considered to be quite saccharine, are anything but when compared with jet black and cool greys.
Silver & Blue
Cool with a dash of pretty, this living room design by Wendy Labrum proves that bold living room colors can be serene too. The color combination of electric blue and a splash of cranberry works beautifully against the purple-tinged greys of the metallic wallpaper and the silver pod-like coffee tables are absolutely perfect.

Yellow, Blue & Green
Blue and green should never be seen, except with something in between. Chosen for the front cover of her coffee table book Dazzling Design, this living room design by Amanda Nisbet showcases her prowess in confident coloring. Vibrant lemon yellow contrasts with navy blue and both accent the living room color scheme’s marbled forest green fauteuils, much in the way they would if mixed together on a color palette. The trick to such a daring space? Neutral walls, carefully planned zones and appropriate ratios.
Cream & Green
Finally cream is coming back into action and for good reason too. Could this living room design be any more sophisticated? It’s a hard task. The chandelier dripping in crystals, the timeless trio of sofas, the mossy sage and olives and brindle hues – it’s all very, very elegant. Katharine Pooley marries a classic arrangement with modern touches to stunning effect.

Blue & White
The Lancasters, Hyde Park was a development that drew on London’s most respected design studios including Helen Green Design, Intarya and Katharine Pooley. The latter’s classy white, indigo, sapphire and black lounge color scheme works well with the living room design’s double-height. The contrasting wall paneling ties the airy room together, focusing the eye on the various areas of the room.
Grey Upon Grey
Greys upon greys upon greys – this 5th Avenue apartment living room design by Jean-Louis Deniot is a smart alternative to timeless ivory interiors. A beautiful coffered ceiling maps out the geometry of the space which sticks to a simple palette in favor of statement art pieces, a graphic rug and intricate lamps. Keep base colors light (a whisper of grey, if you will) with darker touches in the luxury furniture, flooring and art.

Grey & Purple
Greg Natale – a regular advocate of highly pigmented schemes – strikes again with this mature take on living room design. In a luxuriously edgy scheme, a plum, grey and black palette are accented with Brutalist brass silhouette and retro prints. The statement piece – a curved sofa – is even more enticing thanks to its bold lounge color choice which is undeniably sexy.
Pink & Beige
It’s no surprise that everyone’s favorite Maximalist, Kelly Wearstler, knows her way around the color wheel. All stripes and diamonds and polka dots, this New York pad’s living room color combination is another example of how girlish color tones can be transformed with the right accompaniments. Its coral pink color hues are nothing short of avant-garde when used as leather and paint-splatted upholstery.
