We're all obsessed with bigger rooms and more space, but honestly, having too much can pose its challenges. While bigger sounds better, it's often difficult to fill all that space in a way that looks cohesive and doesn't feel awkward.

Thankfully, we have8 examples of large living rooms (and the styling tips to match) that are sure to help you navigate an oversized space. Take notes and get ready to rearrange some furniture. 

01 Create Boundaries With an Oversized Rug

Large spaces, and open concept designs in particular, lack separation between rooms. Creating distinctions between areas makes everything look intentional. A large area rug works to create parameters and visually close off a space, keeping the design from running off into other areas of your home.

02 Go Bold With Your Design

03 Get the Lighting Right

There's no use in having a large living room when dark corners tend to fade into the background. Be smart with the lighting to ensure your big design ideas are well lit from all angles. This living room incorporates stylish overhead pendants and gallery lighting along the wall to ensure every part of the room gets the attention it deserves.

04 Swap a Large Sectional for Two Couches

Although a large living room can accommodate an oversized L-shaped sectional, it's best to swap it for two smaller couches. The layout looks more sophisticated and fills the room in a way that encourages entertainment.

05 Incorporate Bulky Built-Ins

Built-ins can take up a lot of space, but when you have room to spare, it's the perfect time to incorporate a custom design. A modern entertainment center like this one that incorporates wood and marble elements hides all traces of electronic cords and provides tons of space for storage and displaying your favorite décor.

06 Create Multiple Seating Areas

If a single seating area doesn't adequately fill your space, add another one. This vintage-inspired eclectic living room creates two separate seating areas complete with their own couches, chairs, coffee tables, and rugs to fill this oversized space.

07 Go Long

If your living room boasts a large amount of space, play with proportions and incorporate items that elongate your room even more. A long console with an extended couch and items like a long fireplace accentuate your already-spacious living room.

08 Take On the Texture

When space is the name of the game, texture is always a good idea. Elements like greenery, pampas grass, and potted plants, along with textiles like curtains and pillows, paired with natural elements such as wood and concrete have a way of warming up large spaces and preventing them from looking empty or stark. Now pair them all together in a single space and you have yourself a designer-approved living room like this one.
