This living room in Wanstead, London, was designed to create a bright, welcoming, and effortlessly stylish space that feels both modern and comfortable.

 

The large bay window naturally floods the room with daylight, so the design focused on enhancing this light and creating a serene atmosphere with a soft, neutral palette.

​

A pair of contemporary sofas in warm grey tones set the foundation for the room, complemented by a curated selection of cushions in washed blues and abstract patterns.

These layered textures and subtle colours bring depth and elegance to the space, while maintaining a calm, cohesive aesthetic.

 

The artwork and accessories were chosen to echo the soft colour story, adding visual interest without overwhelming the room.

​

To balance the softness, a vintage wooden trunk was introduced as a coffee table, adding character and contrast with its natural warmth. Decorative accents—glass vases, delicate florals, and carefully stacked books—provide a personal touch that completes the lived-in yet refined feel.

​

A statement tripod floor lamp adds a modern industrial edge, offering both functionality and a sculptural element that draws the eye. Overall, this living room combines comfort, contemporary styling, and thoughtful details to create a beautifully inviting space perfectly suited to modern family living in Wanstead.
