  • Plantation shutters – a very popular style of shutter, plantation shutters bring eye-catching appeal to your living room. Available in a range of designs and colors to suit your personal taste, they are easy to fit and use. The plantation style is particularly good for living rooms as the moveable slats allow you to control how much sunlight comes into the room.

  • Velvet sofas – you will know that the sofa is the major piece of furniture you need in any living room, and it is also a chance to add some style. Go for a sofa in a luxurious fabric like velvet, and in a funky color to create some pizazz in your room.
