Living room decoration is the top priority of family decoration. The principle of living room decoration is: both practical and beautiful. In contrast, beauty is more important. The specific principles are as follows:
1. The style should be clear.
The living room is the core area of family residence. Among modern houses, the living room has the largest area, open space and the highest status. Its style tone is often the main vein of home style, leading the style of the whole room. So it is very important to determine the decoration style of the living room. You can choose traditional style, modern style, mixed style, style, Chinese or western style and so on according to your preference. The style of the living room can be achieved in many ways, including ceiling design and lighting design, as well as accessories in the later period, in which different colors are more suitable for expressing different styles of the living room and highlighting the sense of space.
2. Have a distinct personality.
If the decoration of the kitchen and bathroom is the embodiment of the owner's quality of life, then the decoration of the living room is the embodiment of the owner's aesthetic taste and life taste, paying attention to personality. Kitchen and bathroom decoration can improve the quality of life and decoration grade through the finished "integrated kitchen" and "integrated bathroom", but the living room must have its own unique things. In different living room decoration, every slight difference can often reflect the host's different outlook on life, cultivation and taste, so when designing the living room, you should be careful and clever. Personality can be expressed through the choice of decoration materials and means and the placement of furniture, but it is more expressed through "soft decoration" such as accessories, such as handicrafts, calligraphy and painting, cushions, fabrics and trinkets, which can better reflect the owner's cultivation.
3. The zoning should be reasonable.
To be practical, the living room should be divided into reasonable functional areas according to its own needs. If a family spends a lot of time watching TV, then the video cabinet can be used as the center of the living room to determine the position and direction of the sofa; If you don't watch TV often and there are many guests, you can take the reception area as the center of the living room. The living room area can be divided into "hard segmentation" and "soft segmentation". Soft division is to use "hint method" to shape the space, using different decoration materials, decoration techniques, characteristic furniture, lighting modeling and so on to divide. For example, the reception area is separated from the dining area from the upper space through the ceiling, or different areas can be separated on the ground by partially laying carpets. There are two ways to arrange furniture-regular (symmetrical) and freestyle. The furniture layout in small space should be centralized, and the furniture layout in large space should be dispersed. Hard segmentation is to divide the space into several relatively closed areas to achieve different functions. Mainly through the setting of partitions and furniture, some small spaces are separated from large spaces.
4. Focus should be highlighted.
The living room has a top, a floor and four walls. Because of the angle of view, the wall naturally becomes the focus. But the four walls can't exert force evenly, so we should build a theme wall. Theme wall refers to the most striking wall in the living room, usually the wall where the TV and stereo are placed. On the theme wall, you can make some shapes with various decorative materials to highlight the decorative style of the whole living room. At present, it is widely used, such as blank slate, wood and so on. The theme wall is the "finishing touch" of the living room decoration. With this emphasis, the other three walls can be simpler, and the "four white floors" can be achieved. If they are all made into theme walls, it will give people a sense of disorder. The top surface and the ground are two horizontal planes. The top surface is above people, and the top surface treatment plays a decisive role in the renovation of space, which has a more significant impact on space than the ground. The ground is usually the first part that attracts people's attention, and its color, texture and pattern can directly affect the indoor impression. [ 1]

[Edit this paragraph] Matters needing attention in living room decoration
1, the design and layout of the living room
1. What are the requirements for the living room? The living room is sometimes called the living room. As one of the activity areas of family life, the living room has many functions. It is not only a place for family activities, entertainment, leisure, reunion and dining, but also a social activity space for receiving guests and communicating with the outside world. Therefore, the living room has become the central top space of the house and the window to the outside world. The living room area should be large, the scale should be appropriate, and the lighting should be sufficient and reasonable. A relatively independent space area with an area of about 2 0 square meters is an ideal living place. 2. What are the basic principles of living room design? The living room design should be divided into space and plane layout according to its function and area. Living room design should consider various factors such as residents' different needs and living habits. The floor of the living room should be carpet, floor, homogeneous brick and stone. The design of the top and wall of the living room should use artificial or natural materials such as wallpaper, spraying and painting. The living room should be air-conditioned and well ventilated. 3. How to consider the spatial organization and furniture layout of the living room? The furniture of the living room should be arranged according to the activity and functional nature of the room. The most basic requirement is to design a set of chairs (usually sofas) for rest and conversation, including coffee tables, and corresponding equipment and supplies, such as televisions, stereos, books and newspapers, audio-visual materials, drinks and utensils. Other requirements will be based on the simplicity or complexity of the living room. Multifunctional combined furniture can store all kinds of articles, and is often used in living rooms. The furniture layout of the whole living room should be simple and generous, focusing on the conversation area, excluding all furniture that has nothing to do with the living room to reflect the characteristics of the living room. Whether the function of a room is specific or not, to a certain extent, is a sign to measure the level of living standards, first of all, it is reflected in the layout of its furniture. There are many forms of furniture arrangement in the living room. Generally, sofas are mainly arranged in the form of "-","I", "U" and double rows. At the same time, the combination of multi-seat and single-seat should be considered to meet people's psychological needs and personality requirements in different situations. There are many kinds of modern furniture, which can be arranged into symmetrical shapes, curved shapes or freely combined shapes according to different styles. No matter what kind of seat you use, you should arrange it in a position where you can talk to each other easily. Generally speaking, it is advisable to sit face to face or side by side, and the distance between seats is generally about 2.0m, so that it is easy for both sides to talk. In order to avoid all kinds of interference to the conversation area, the indoor traffic route should not cross the conversation area, the door should be located in the short side wall or corner of the room, and the conversation area should be located in the corner or end of the room. Therefore, there are enough solid walls to place furniture and form a relatively complete independent space area. 4. How to consider the handling of the living room interface? The walls and ceilings of the living room are generally the building envelope components themselves, such as brick walls and reinforced concrete slabs. At present, the decoration is carried out on this basis, and the surface layer usually adopts wear-resistant and easy-to-wash surfaces such as artificial paint and latex paint. The second is wallpaper, which can cover cracks and flaws. The wallpaper is smooth as paint or simple in color and texture (such as concave-convex wallpaper). Concave-convex wallpaper and rough linen wallpaper are more effective for covering uneven walls. You can also cover the wall with high-grade fabrics, which has sound absorption effect. Cork decoration is a durable wall decoration, which can play the role of internal insulation and sound absorption, but it is expensive. Ceiling has an influence on the temperature, acoustics and lighting of the room, so we should pay more attention to it when choosing. For example, a high ceiling looks cold, a low ceiling looks warm, a white ceiling gives the room more reflected light, and the ceiling is conducive to better sound insulation. In addition, because the ceiling is not covered, it can play a better decorative effect. The ground is used for walking and arranging seats. When handling, we should consider the requirements of safety, quietness, cold protection and beauty. Therefore, the living space should be decorated with environmental protection materials such as wood floors or carpets, and sometimes hardwood floors and stones can be combined to form areas with various colors and patterns to define and beautify the space. Although the wooden floor and soft texture have sound-absorbing effect and soft and warm feeling, which is beneficial to the living room with audio-visual function requirements, the soft floor is not easy to clean and maintain. 5. How to determine the size of the hall and cabinets? The size of the hall and cabinet is determined as follows: (1) If the low cabinet adopts a 29-33 inch TV, the low cabinet should adopt the following three sizes: ①400mm, that is, sitting high. For example, one side of the hall cabinet can be used as a seat (or a thin cushion can be placed on it) to talk to the sofa. The bedroom low cabinet also uses this height. ② 600Inm is used to enlarge the height of the TV. ③ 7 1 omm, the highest price limit. Why is 7 10llun the highest limit? Watching TV on the sofa L, the height of the seat is 400mm, and the height from the seat to the eyes is 660 mm. Together, it is 1060mm, which is the high line of sight (E.L.). If you are using a Zi-25 inch TV, leave a low cabinet with a height of 10mm, and the line of sight is right in the center of the TV screen. If the low cabinet is higher than 7 10mm, it will become looking up. According to the principle of ergonomics, looking up is easy to cause neck fatigue. Looking down, there is no such problem. If you use a wooden chopping block with a diameter of 1500Mm and a height of 150mM sawed from a big tree to place the TV, it looks very comfortable. As for the distance LE from the TV screen to people's eyes, it is six times the width of the TV screen. For a TV set with a diagonal of 18-2 1in, the LE is about 2440mm, which is the standard size. The short side is 18 3 0 m m, and the long side is 3050MM. If it exceeds 3050mm, the TV screen of 18-2 1in is too small, 6. How to determine the size of sofa? Generally, the single person sofa of a residence is 760mm×760mm, and at most 8 10mm×8 10mm is enough. The length of a three-person sofa is generally 1750- 1980mm. Many people like imported sofas. It should be noted that the size of this kind of sofa is generally 900 mm x 900 mm, which often makes the living room look small when placed in a small-sized living room. Many people like corner sofas. There should be several corner positions, and the size is 760 mm x 760 mm If the corner is made into a sofa, the sitting person will occupy the position next door and feel uncomfortable at the same time, because his feet are at right angles. To sit comfortably in the corner, the size of the corner sofa should be 1020mm× 1020mm. The highest position of the seat should be 400mm, and then the seat is inclined downward, with an inclination of 6 and a depth of about 530mm (according to the principle of ergonomics, it should not be too deep, that is, it is impossible to sit at the end, and foreign sofas 1000mmx 1070mm only add handrails and backrest, and the sitting depth increases by 24 inches). The armrest of sofa is generally 560-600 mm high. Therefore, if the sofa has no handrails, if corners are used, the height of the corners and sides should be 60mm higher. Convenient to pillow hands, make phone calls, write, put desk lamps, etc. Sofa hardness should be moderate, and sofas that are too hard or too soft will sit with backache. So, how to judge the softness of the sofa? If you sit down and get hit, you will feel as if you are sitting on a hard board. This kind of sofa is too hard. If you sit down, your body is too deep, you feel empty, and even feel the bottom frame of the sofa. This kind of sofa is too soft. The size of the coffee table is generally 1070mm×600mm, and the height is 400mm, that is, the height of the flat sofa seat. In this way, it seems that the place is more spacious. Sometimes, medium and large units will use 1200mm XI 200mm for the coffee table, at this time, its height will be reduced to 250-300mm. The distance between the coffee table and the sofa should be about 350 mm. How to design a multifunctional guest restaurant? There is not much time for family reunion. Everyone is very busy and seldom has a rest. So at home, except sleeping, 80% of the time is spent in the hall. If there is no hall in the present house, it will always make people feel that the room type is not good and they are not used to it. No matter how many rooms there are, no matter how big the rooms are, it is in vain. So now the area of houses and halls is getting bigger and bigger. Moreover, the function of the hall has also developed in the direction of multi-function, from the initial simple living room-the hall for receiving guests, to a place for socializing and communicating with all guests, a place for children to chase and play, and a place for lovers to whisper and make out. The living room is the center of home life, not too much. The following design fully embodies the above concept. First of all, on the ground floor, the whole hall is naturally divided into two spaces: the living room and the dining room. In the dining room, marble is laid on the ground, which is convenient to clean and noble; In the living room, the wooden floor is spread on the ground, showing the warmth of the whole hall. And a gradual transition line is paved with black and white marble, which makes people clear at a glance. There is no need to set obvious gaps in the living room and dining room, just make two wooden decorative cabinets on both sides and put some craft ornaments on it. The application of ceiling is also amazing. The two major functional areas use arc-shaped suspended ceilings, which match the straight line of the ground, and use different shapes of suspended ceilings and different types of platforms to clearly distinguish the major functional areas. It can be inferred that in this modern era, the demand of personal space and communication makes the lobby area bigger and bigger, and the functionality stronger and stronger, while the bedroom area is smaller and smaller, evolving in the direction of personalization. With the increasingly diversified lifestyle, the multifunctional guest restaurant will surely become the primary condition for modern elegant residential design. 8. How to arrange real and simple unique plates and stretch the home? Speaking of "dish", we can think of the beautiful poem "a wall is separated by thousands of miles, which is when you have no desire"; It can be associated with the magnificent scenery of "thousands of miles frozen, Wan Li snowing". The beauty of stretching, solemnity and tranquility are the main characteristics of plate decoration. Now the home tends to be spacious, and the simple "plate structure" is gradually favored by people. Specifically, plate decoration can produce the following effects. Highlight formal beauty in "openness" One of the masterpieces of the plate should be said to be "Wall Platform". Wall platform occupies a place in modern home decoration, especially in small space, because of its simplicity, stretch, openness and various beautiful shapes. In the same way, the improvement of the dry wardrobe is also won by highlighting the plate structure. For example, the left and right sides of the wardrobe are transparent glass panels, which highlight the internal horizontal shelves, just like inserting wings into the wardrobe to make it look less cumbersome and bloated. Some people have removed the left and right door panels of the existing wardrobe, and the effect of "changing four doors into two" is also good. Fully show the beauty of' movement'. For the vertical plate, it has the most solemn and peaceful aesthetic feeling. For example, the decoration of the wall, from the roof to the ground, is decorated with several independent wooden or cloth surfaces, which has excellent effect and is more decorative than "big bag and big cover" and "dado". The white wall between the plates has a "breathable" effect. When a shelf is set on the wall, a kind of "dynamic" can be produced if the wooden board is made into a stepped or zigzag "rising" shape. This shape is used in the kitchen, which can arouse the mood of the cooks and let them "shine" in excitement. Give the space a mysterious aesthetic feeling. The plates are staggered to form a hierarchy, which is unfathomable in the alternation of reality and reality. For example, for the treatment of the ceiling, 2-4 layers of plates with different heights are staggered, and then the lighting lamps are buried, which is better than the "round" ceiling. It must be noted that the bottom board should be smaller to avoid losing too much space. In addition, the most popular bedside "wall lamp"-a plate with a width of about 3m and a height of about 2m stands on the bedside table, and its edge selection can be various geometric figures. The distance between the plate and the wall is 65,438+00-30cm, and the built-in lighting can create the mystery of the sleeping area in virtual reality. Show the beauty of materials in simplicity. Some people love natural marble, so they spent more than 1000 yuan to buy an' Indian Red' polishing disc of about L square meters, and displayed it in the center of the living room or in front of the sofa with the simplest bracket. It highlights the beauty of the material of the "coffee table" to the maximum extent. 9. How to decorate the suite furniture in the small hall? At present, the "suite furniture" derived from DIY concept has sprung up suddenly in the market. This kind of furniture emphasizes tailoring for indoor space, flaunts high quality and low price, and saves construction time. Ordinary consumers' impression of imported furniture is always discouraged by its high price. In fact, domestic suite furniture can also be measured by designers in a customized way according to the needs of different spaces, and drawn directly according to specifications, colors, sizes, styles and shapes, so that consumers can realize their dream of suite furniture completely according to their personal preferences. According to the actual situation of middle-income families, many designers are in favor of this way in decoration and furniture preparation. 10. How to place the virtual column? The style of "fake column" is extraordinary. Nowadays, the hall of an apartment is getting bigger and bigger. If the hall area is between 20 and 40 square meters and the room height is between 2.8 and 3.lm, some exquisite "stone pillars" can be hung in the decoration. How to choose 13 living room lamps if "upright" gypsum hollow columns are erected at the four corners of the hall? It should be said that the lamps in the living room are also the most diverse.
