7 Colour Scheme For Living Room Ideas

Does your living room need a refresh but you’re not sure where to start? Have you been scouring the internet and Pinterest for a colour scheme for your living room and colour inspiration but are overwhelmed by choices?

We’ve pulled together some chic colour palettes to help point you in the right direction.

Whilst many of these living room colour schemes are neutral, we think the shades and tones will surprise you. Take a peek and see if any of these colour palettes strike your fancy.

Living Room Colour Scheme #1

We love the contemporary tones of the above room featured in Elle Décor.

The neutral gray and whitewashed floor boards lend a casual yet sophisticated touch to the palest yellow apple of the furniture fabric and the head turning teal of the accent cushions and coffee table trunk.

A simple, silver framed mirror and barely there floor lamp blend seamlessly into the design. Gorge!

Living Room Colour Scheme #2

We adore the dark marine wall colour and stunning burnt orange furnishings of this captivating sitting/music room by Anna Hewitson Design.

Everything about this room is striking in its elegance and modern beauty. From the shapely overhead sputnik chandelier to the geometric black and white window treatments, this room elegantly showcases one of our favourite colour palettes - the complementary shades of blue and orange.

We love how the entire sofa wall is covered with framed record albums. The music theme is carried above the fireplace with an LED neon sign referencing David Bowie lyrics.

Basalt 221 – Little Greene | Deep Space Blue 207 – Little Greene | Heat 24 – Little Greene | Slaked Lime 105 – Little Greene


Living Room Colour Scheme #3

Rich tones and worldly charm grace this stunning living room featured in a chic London Townhouse.

The look, by Anna Hewitson Design, uses a contemporary colour palette featuring a soft combination of blues, coral, gold and grey with a statement-making art piece, brass furniture legs and an openwork coffee table/ottoman.

Living Room Colour Scheme #4

Totally tonal, this room is the epitome of relaxed glamour. It features organic tones and textures, from the furnishings to the natural linen fabrics.

There’s something serene yet luxurious about a neutral colour palette. The mix of shapes (bolster pillow, round decorative bowl and linear coffee table) gives this room a modern look with a warm, casual vibe.

Clockface 81 – Little Greene | Flint 236 – Little Greene | Rubine Ashes 243 – Little Greene | Scree 227 – Little Greene


Living Room Colour Scheme #5

We’re crushing on the Aspen Project over on Kate Marker Interiors. Kate is known for her clean aesthetic, incorporating natural wood and organic finishes into every design.

The cosy elegance of this neutral living room is magnified by a jute rug, plump sectional and upholstered ottomans. With barely-there paint colours in Bone China, this glorious room is a space to envy.

When you’re looking for a neutral living room palette that also has a subtle hint of blue, consider Bone China paint from Little Greene.

With minimal accessories, whitewashed wood window frames as art and soft, elegant furnishings, the subtle tones in this room shine through to capture attention. If you need a little help with choosing a white for your home click here and I'll show you how to choose the perfect white paint every time.

Living Room Colour Scheme #6

From neutrals to saturated colours, this is a great example of a get rich quick scheme with a luxurious wallpaper that offers intense colour and texture.

In our opinion, using damask wallpaper in living room colour schemes is always a good idea!

This is such a stunning design, from the jaw-dropping colour combo to the plush velvet furnishings, that we instantly fell head over heels for this modern living room featured on stylelibrary.com.

If you love vibrant head-turning colours, and you’re not afraid to go bold, this trendy palette is for you.

Although the deep teal is a damask wallpaper from the Zoffany collection, we discovered a few paint alternatives (Little Greene’s Goblin or Canton). Go teal on the walls or paint a focal wall in Little Greene’s Mischief paint for a similar, breathtaking result.

Canton 94 – Little Greene | Goblin 311 – Little Greene | Mischief 13 – Little Greene | Woad 251 – Little Greene

Living Room Colour Scheme #7

We’re captivated by the serene look of this fab modern living room with a full wall of artwork, and a simple Scandinavian aesthetic. This room is from the cosy Swedish home of Janniche Kristoffersen. It was featured on the Nordroom interior design blog.

There’s something soft and feminine about the look. Perhaps it’s the linen or the colour of the coffee table that picks up the art and flower colours (total buddy system in action), but we’re smitten.

Get The Look

Blush 267 – Little Greene | Inox 224 – Little Greene | Mid Buff 122 – Little Greene | Slaked Lime Dark 151 – Little Greene

We'd love to know which is your favourite and whether you're brave enough to make a choice like Goblin or a living room with blue say like Deep Space Blue or you’re more likely to stick with warm neutral tones.
