A multifunctional modern living room

Welcome to this small living room that, thanks to clever IKEA solutions, still offers ample space for various activities. The room is divided into different zones, such as a seating area, a work area, and a storage area. The colour scheme feels calm and natural because of the combination of green, white, and light wood. Plenty of plants finish off the serene atmosphere in this room.

Simple storage that adds atmosphere, too

In this room, plenty of storage space has been created. You can see a mix of open shelves and cabinets with doors where you can store your personal items. This creates a calm appearance. The white BILLY bookcases with bamboo doors enhance the modern atmosphere of this room. The lighting on top of the cabinet helps highlight your favourite objects and find your belongings in the dark.

Take your relaxation to a new level

How do you ensure ultimate relaxation in your seating area? It's simple: by raising or lowering the tabletop of your coffee table, depending on your activity. Need extra storage? Store items like cushions, throws, and magazines in the storage space in the coffee table. Also, don't worry about enjoying a drink or snack on the sofa. The cover of this sofa is machine washable, so any stains can be easily removed. Both pieces of furniture complement the colour palette and modern style of the room beautifully.

A place where art comes together

If you want to create a modern interior, it's important to choose sideboards that perfectly match the style. These sideboards offer both open and closed storage spaces and can also be used for displaying items. The sliding doors don't take up space when opened, which is a huge advantage in a small room. Placing two sideboards side by side makes a strong impression and also provides twice the amount of storage space. Above the cabinets, there's room for your art, such as these cheerful images here.

Flexible room dividers for a playful space

These MITTZON room dividers on wheels separate the hobby area from the seating area. You can easily move the room dividers and play with your space. The built-in lighting creates a relaxed atmosphere in the evenings. The plants give the feeling of being in nature. The green of the plants with the white of the frames together enhance the colour palette of the modern interior.

Natural harmony inside your living room

Despite being indoors, with a bunch of artificial plants and these striped armchairs, you feel like you're sitting on a sunny terrace. The green and white hues and the light wood of the side table give a holiday vibe. Create indoor harmony.

A multipurpose room where everything works together

Blond wood and other natural materials; green and white, sprinkled with accent colours, and plants are the keys to the look of this modern-style room. It’s small but the zoning idea lets you enjoy an indoor “terrace”, a cosy sofa spot and a discrete hobby area. And it’s all in harmony.
