L-Shaped Living Room and Dining Room Decorating Ideas
L-Shaped Living Room – The sightlines in an L-shaped space are often broken up just enough to make for an awkward transition from one room to another. With the right palette, accessories and furniture placement, however, an adjoining living room and dining room can appear cohesive and natural.

How to Decor L-Shaped Living Room
Wall Color

In an L-shaped space, two areas share a wall. This is normally the longest wall in the “L” formation. However, that doesn’t mean that you have to paint the entire space one color, as long as the hues blend nicely. Decide on a color for each room. Then choose at which end of the long wall to begin the second shade. For example, if you’re going with a slightly lighter tone in the living room, you could allow the dining room’s darker color to enter the L-Shaped Living Room along the shared wall. A darker or more dominant-colored wall in any space acts as a feature wall.

Furnishings
Your living room furniture is key to good design flow. But it doesn’t have to match. Matched sets can appear too stuffy and contrived. The furniture throughout a home works best when it simply goes well together. Case in point: dark maple mixes nicely with bleached pine or oak because these two types of wood are different enough to show planned definition. Bring them together with other elements; a maple dining room set and a pine entertainment center could both have chrome legs, clean lines and retro, art-deco inspiration.
