DESIGN HANDBOOK
Designing a luxe living room can sometimes feel like an impossible feat—especially if you’re working within a small budget. We all know those Elle Decor magazine covers cost 50K at a minimum! The truth of the matter is that investing in quality furniture is really important, especially in the living room where you get heavy foot traffic and your guests make their first impressions of your home. That’s why when we curate our living room furniture, every piece has to pass our stringent merchandising requirements. Not only are our pieces exceptionally designed, but they’re constructed to last a lifetime with the highest material integrity and quality finishes. But, you don’t have to spend as much money as you might think!
Today on the blog, we’re showing you several affordable designs you can purchase at KKH. What’s the magic number? 10K. Read our budget breakdown article for a more detailed analysis of what you should be spending on your furniture (and where to splurge if you can!), but if you save for a 10K budget, you’ll have the means to design a luxe living room space that’s beautiful, functional, and long lasting. And believe it or not, you won’t be spending more than you would at big box retailers (Plus, the furniture will actually last! Quite the bargain, right?). Explore the looks we’ve put together below, but for more help designing your space, reach out to our Design Services!
The pieces below are classic, elegant, and looks expensive, but the total cost of the look comes to…$5174. One tip for the living room is to spend more on the main pieces like your sofa, chairs, and coffee table. Room accessories like side tables, lamps, and pillows can be easily changed out later when you have more to spend on your space.
Are you always falling head over heels when you see pics of chic industrial apartments all over Instagram? This rustic and urban products below costs a total of $3315, but it has everything you need for a luxe living space. A great tip is to find an affordable sectional like our Diorama above to elevate your look and provide additional seating; then, purchase living room chairs instead of spending money on a second sofa.
There’s something undeniably appealing about a day at the beach. Are you dreaming of a beachside escape? It’s not that far from reality with these Coastal Beach inspired pieces below, which total out to $5323. Through use of soft tones and a clean aesthetic, your living room can easily evoke the breeziness of the beach with sunny seaside accents.
