Wood is one of the most widely used materials in interior design, thanks to a timeless charm and an aesthetic that manages to tell, grain by grain, many stories.
It is perfect to fit into different spaces both in terms of flooring and furniture and accessories.
Mobili 2G Vicenza is well aware of this, a company that offers a widely assorted furniture shop for all rooms of the house: bathroom, living area, bedroom area and much more. Solutions with an original design, able to adapt to a classic style as well as a modern one.
In this article, we offer you three tips for furnishing the living area. The protagonist is wood, a material capable of never going out of fashion and which manages to give countless satisfactions.
Premise: what is meant by living area
The living area is one of the most popular rooms in the house. It represents the place of choice where it is natural to spend moments of relaxation, where you find yourself alone or in company to converse, watch television, read, listen to music, etc. etc.
A space to be thought of in the name of functionality and hospitality, according to one’s personal taste and needs.
Over the years, the concept of the living area has changed.
If once this term basically contemplated the living room, today it is no longer so, as inside we find different parts such as the entrance, dining room, living room, dining room, hallway and, in the case of an open space, even the kitchen.
The latter solution appears increasingly sought after and comes from American culture: we find it declined in an evocative way in several films.
The result is a bright and harmonious whole, without partition walls but recreated in different ways: through a partition or by positioning the furniture and furnishing accessories in a particular direction.
It is in this furnishing context that wood is being used to bring a warm atmosphere, pleasant to live in everyday life and with a particular feeling of freedom.
A speech that is even more valid if you decide to insert a floor such as parquet, in which it is natural to walk even barefoot. Below, we offer you three style ideas to make the living area even more special, all simple to make.
A bookcase with a contemporary design
The wooden bookcase is a classic of interior design and lends itself to being inserted within different furnishing moods, depending on whether it is in dark or light wood, painted in shades of white or in other colors.
The element that makes it current is the minimal design of contemporary models, capable of combining the search for quality wood from sustainable sources with linear, simple and versatile shapes.
The sizes are also different: the bookcase can be high and wide, or thin and high but also lower in height and spacious.
The furniture is used to accommodate, in addition to books, other objects: knick-knacks, electronic devices, stereos, plants and much more. In this way, it is a functional and visually pleasing support surface.
For open-plan spaces, we recommend a double-sided bookcase, i.e. it can be used on both sides and therefore particularly convenient.
Wooden bench: an object of the past that becomes current again
Once upon a time there was a bench, with wooden legs and padded as far as the support surface is concerned. A sort of stool-cushion, with the slightly baroque and retro upholstery element, seen with today’s eyes, refined and able to relax the gaze.
Its use? As a seat, in the first place, but also as a footrest in the living room, even, when necessary, as a support surface. A piece of furniture that looks good in homes with a more classic style, as well as in those with a minimalist appeal.
A stylish detail capable of capturing the eye and always being convincing and practical to use.
TV cabinet: why not made of wood?
The TV cabinet is an older piece of furniture than the previous ones, if you think that it was introduced into our homes with the advent of television, i.e. after the Second World War.
Why choose a wooden one? Firstly, because it represents a traditional solution that never goes out of fashion and manages to last a long time, even after changing devices or moving house.
And then because it is an option that can be declined in a thousand different ways: versatile, pleasant from a decorative and quality point of view, which can be made according to very different sizes and shapes.
A piece of furniture that is a classic of the living area, also perfect for the bedroom, where the TV has become no less the protagonist.
