You can make your living room seem airier through the artful choice of furniture and accessories. Decorators recommend these techniques:

  • Choose just a few pieces of furniture -- declutter!


  • Choose light colors for the furniture and your wall paint, and match some of the furniture to the walls. Avoid busy prints in upholstery.


  • Choose low-slung, unobtrusive furniture and don't block windows or doors.


  • Choose tables with glass or mirror tops.


  • Choose sheer fabrics for window treatments and tablecloths.
