Living room ideas making space for family fun

A flexible living room is a good living room, especially if you want to get fun and play and family activities going. With comfy furniture that’s easy to change around, the right lighting and a few creative solutions, it’s easy to go from board game night to instant disco, or from film night to karaoke to charades.

A stage where anything can happen

Flexibility is what gives you freedom for all activities. Easy-on/off curtains make a great backdrop for a pop-up stage, a room divider, a trolley and a mirror give you a dressing room for the stars of the family, and a patchwork of rugs in different colours helps highlight the stage.

Here come the treats

Snacks and drinks usually help round up the whole family before the show starts. A trolley is handy for preparing everything in the kitchen and bringing it to the living room in one go – and it’s just as convenient for cleaning up afterwards.

Quiz show, movie night or series binge

A large comfy sofa is a great multi-use base for the whole family to get cosy together in front of the screen. Of course, some cushions and throws only make things nicer. Not to mention what a surround set-up of SYMFONISK speakers can do for the experience.

Wireless control of light and sound

Setting the atmosphere with the right light and the right sound couldn’t be easier than with everything connected to a TRÅDFRI gateway. Simply open the app on your phone to take control.
