The Living Room Diaries: Enhancing Comfort and Style with a Single Detail

After spending hours working at the office, the only thing you want to do at the end of the day is come home and relax in the company of your loved ones. As an office worker myself, I know from personal experience that sitting in front of a computer for long periods of time, typing, emailing and reviewing projects, can be quite exhausting and drain you out both mentally and physically. Not to mention, the annoying back pain that tends to intensify as the day progresses, so by the time you get home it seems as if there are pins and needles in your spine that are on a 'special mission' to prevent you from bending properly. Add to this the stress that comes with a busy work schedule and you get one tensed and tired office worker who is a desperate need of relaxation.

However, one can't relax properly in a house that looks anything but comfy and homey. As the hub of activity in every home, the living room in particular can have such features. Poor organisation, wrong selection of furniture or the lack of it can often make the house lack in both comfort and aesthetics. That's why, for the sake of you being able to rest and de-stress properly and enjoy the bliss of domestic life, it's essential to try and enhance the cosiness and style of your living room. This doesn't mean that you have to spend a lot of money on new furnishing and décor. You can easily achieve this with a single detail - decorative pillows. They come in a full spectrum of colours and sizes, so you can surly find ones that best suit the style of your home.

There are many ways you can use decorative pillows to turn your living room into a charming retreat where you can distance yourself from the hustle and bustle of modern office life. For instance, soft pillows in vibrant colours can be just the thing to enhance the comfort and beauty of your sofa. Pair them with a beautiful throw and you got yourself a wonderful seating area where you can relax and enjoy in fun movie nights with your family.

Few things can be as relaxing as sitting on your window seat and enjoying a view of your lush green backyard that creates a wonderful contrast to the magical blue sky. You can make your window seat look even better by arranging some fluffy pillows that can add more dimension and colour to the space. To achieve this opt for ones that are shaped differently than your windows. For instance, if you have regular rectangular windows go for modern oval shaped pillows that have a distinctive design that will make this area truly stand out.
