Living Rooms that Showcase Collections

To easily balance out a space, choose a shape and employ it in various ways—here, brown cubes are central to the tiled fireplace, the mirror frames and the checkered rug, which allows the owner’s collection of vases to stand out.

Scatter personal possessions and unique objects to give your living room a relaxed, lived-in look. Take note of how casually propped artwork disguises the dark firebox and how stacked books become risers to accentuate accessories. A playful throw rug is layered atop the sisal&madsh;an unexpected surprise.

Low sitting black leather couches amid patterns and a collection of sculptures balance one another out in a cafe espresso motif.

A metal sunburst sculpture radiates life through the room and calls for complementing petite accessories by way of the horse sculptures and a glass collection.
