Apartment Living Room Styled 3 ways

Living in an apartment can put a limit on what you can do with your space. You may be in a brand new build that has little to no character. Or you may be in an old brownstone with endless charm. Some landlords don't allow you to make any changes to your apartment including paint or hardware changes.


Usually, apartments lack character, color, and personality. Having such a blank canvas without much control over it can seem daunting. It might not even seem worth it to invest too much into a (probably) temporary home. But it's important to make a home YOUR home. Being attentional with your choices can help you create the apartment of your dreams. Here are 3 styled living rooms to help you get started!

Adding leather couches, darker elements, wood and metal accent pieces will take this style even further.
