Trying to give your living room that modern feel can be daunting, but with our range of contemporary products, you can be sure to create the design of your dreams.

A modern feel can mean different things to different people, but whether you’re going for a minimalist design or going all out, it doesn’t take much to transform your living room. Take a look at some of our modern living room furniture ideas to help you spruce up your living room space.

Our Modern Living Room Furniture Ideas to Help Give Your Living Room a Lift

Start with the Sofa

The centrepiece of any living room is the sofa, so the first step to creating your ideal modern living room is to upgrade the sofa. If it’s a 3 person sofa that you’re looking for, look no further than our Stanley 3-Seater Sofa. Designed by Matthew Hilton, the Stanley 3-Seater Sofa features a solid timber frame, which gently tapers towards the back, while the low arms and soft leather upholstered cushions make the piece both aesthetically pleasing and highly comfortable, perfect for that modern living room feel. Still got space? Why not try the matching 2 seater sofa or armchair to create the perfect modern sofa set.

Stanley Sofa for Modern Living Room

For something a bit different, our Kelston 2 seater sofa boasts large seating areas, wide arms and foam and feather cushions for optimum comfort. With unique articulating headrests which can be adjusted to a variety of angles and heights, or folded out of the way when not in use, this sofa provides ultimate comfort while giving your living room that modern feel.

Add a Coffee Table

A coffee table is the ideal accessory to complement your modern sofa and fill the gaps in your living room. Choosing the right coffee table or side table can give your living room that homely feel that you’ve been desiring, so let’s take a look at some options.

The Cross Collection offers a number of coffee table designs, including the Cross Oval Coffee Table, the Cross Round Coffee Table or the Cross Side Table. Designed by award winning designer Matthew Hilton, the Cross collection of coffee tables & side tables combines a visual balance due to the proportions of the tabletop with a functional design of the base.

Cross Coffee Table for Modern Living Room

If you’re looking for something even more contemporary, the Lucent Coffee Table is a great option to ensure a modern looking living room. Built with glass panels, this coffee table is a fine blend of modernity and functionality, boasting a minimal look that will suit a variety of interior spaces. This distinct design certainly creates a statement of style without overpowering a room.

Storage Solutions

The key to creating a minimalist, modern living room is to ensure that you can ‘declutter’, which is why storage options are a key part of the process.

Shelving units, such as the Lap Shelving Unit, come in a variety of sizes, to ensure you have the space to display and store those prized possessions. Whether you need a single shelving unit for an alcove or an entire wall of shelving, our Lap Shelving products are adaptable to work in different environments to fit in with your modern living room style.

For something a bit more subtle, the Cross Sideboard is a great option to store all your belongings that you don’t want on show. Configured with three drawers on the left side and two doors on the right, the design by Matthew Hilton is sturdy, handsome and has a solid base frame and legs, while its body is made of veneered oak or walnut.

Finish it with Accessories

Last but not least, no modern living room is finished without some accessories to pull the whole design together.

From table lights, to candlesticks and even hanging pendant lights, adding a variety of accessories around the living room can really make the difference when designing a modern living room. All our living room accessories are designed to add a touch of quality to your home.
