#1: Centred Furniture for a Wheelchair-Accessible Living Room

If you love sophisticated and minimal modern living room ideas, then you must take a cue from this space. This modern living room is filled with natural light, neutral colours, including a pristine white sofa set, and plenty of wooden elements. The oakwood wall panel and display shelves are ideal for showing off your favourite collectables. A mirrored panel next to the batten wall makes this space appear larger than it actually is. A layout with centred living room furniture makes it elder-friendly too.

#2: Grunge Industrial Living Room Design

Who livs here: Nigel Ng and Madaline Chin and their toddler daughter

If you are someone who cannot have enough of the edgy, industrial theme, then take notes! Our designer opted for a semi-finished look for the walls and floor as a part of the industrial theme for this living room. Bold lighting, insightful design choices and intriguingly dark finishes make this one of our favourite modern living room ideas. Greys, dark wood shades and accents of black dominate the design theme here.

#3: Making the Most of an Open Layout

Who livs here: Kader S. with Malikka Begum and their toddler son

Memoirs of a bygone era are brought to life with skilful design in this modern contemporary living room. Colours and lights can be used to recreate a Mediterranean feel — just like our designer has done for this open-layout living room design. The designer also put in ample space to display accessories in the TV unit. There’s much inspiration to draw from this living room, especially how to design a room in a specific theme, yet keep it functional.

#4: A Living Room Designed to Look Seamless and Functional

Who livs here: See Zhibin and Tong Shuyi

This is one of those modern minimalist living room ideas that will teach you how to design on a budget without compromising on style. The soon-to-be-married couple residing here wanted a space where they could entertain friends and family regularly. Therefore, we gave them an L-shaped sofa set that accommodates plenty of people at a time. And for extra seating, you have a cushioned option by the window! Each wooden panel here has intricate detailing as opposed to having plain textures in this modern living room.

#5: An All-White Modern Living Room for a Homebound Couple

Who livs here: Ivan and HuiMin

Ivan and HuiMin, the couple residing here, insisted on using plenty of white finishes for their modern living room. Given the square footage of their living room, our designer was in complete agreement with them. White is your best bet for opening up compact spaces and this is a great example of that. Also, notice the feature wall behind the TV unit? This wall design is created using an ash-white ply that is rather basic, keeping the layout clean and uncluttered. This simple living room design gives us cosy feels!
