12 awkward living room layout ideas that will give you instant stylish solutions

With a long rectangular-shaped living room it’s best to start in the middle. Two couches opposite each other will work well and they don’t have to match, add in an armchair that ties in with one of them and you’ll have a cohesive and stylish look. A rug will anchor the scheme, keep it neutral if your couches are bright or patterned. Secondary furniture like the consoles can be kept to the edges and used for table lamps and plants.
