Normally, a living room has a coffee table, a sofa and a love-seat, even some picture, rug, television, lamp, etc. You can design your living in your own way.

You should try your best to minimize the amount of money, but still remain comfortable and cozy.
If you are looking for the ideal designs for low budget living room, take a look at my ideas which are very suitable for decorating a living room on a low budget.

A small table, 2 sofas, an unique lamp combined with the harmonious color brings the peaceful feelings for the owner and the guests.

Choose furniture first and look for pieces that are light in color and have legs. Lighter colors occupy less visual weight and legs provide an unobstructed view of the floor, allowing the space to appear more open.
This room has a lovely wicker basket which serves as an end table. On the shelf is a fabric covered box and the coffee table has a lower shelf which can be used to store books, boxes, baskets etc.Sometimes the more space you have the more objects you accumulate. Keep shelving organized.
Add things to the space to encourage your eyes to move upward from the furniture. Floor lamps, large vases with tall twigs, full length draperies, long mirrors, vertical paintings or stacked paintings, mantles, tables with multi- layered arrangements etc. are possible choices.Did you notice the large mirror on the end wall?
Lighting is important in any room but even more so in a small room. Keep window treatments light and airy so that the natural light can shine through or have drapes that can be pulled back to let the light flood in.
Choose furniture first and look for pieces that are light in color and have legs. Lighter colors occupy less visual weight and legs provide an unobstructed view of the floor, allowing the space to appear more open.
If your room is small, choose smaller scale furniture. Armless chairs, apartment size sofas, small sectional etc. will make the room appear more spacious.
If you have a sofa or sectional that you need to keep and it dominates the room, paint the walls a shade that is just a bit lighter than the upholstery . The eye will move across the room rather than sticking on the sofa. In the room above a stone wall harmonizes with the sofa and the warm yellow from the wall is picked up as accents.
Neutral colors mixed with lighter shades of blue and green work well in a small living area. Cooler colors recede thus giving the impression of a larger space. Bare wood floors in lighter wood tones also add to a clean, flowing feeling. Dark floors have the opposite effect.
