It is fair to say that living room is the heart of the home and where most people spend the most time in around the house. It is also where you host all your guests and the \u201cfirst impression\u201d your guests will get from your home. Even designers pay so much attention in\u00a0<strong><a href=\"http:\/\/m3studio.sg\/\">living room design in Singapore<\/a><\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Naturally, living room is also the home decoration spot light. The design of your living room often sets the tone of the design of your entire home. Some people go out to the wild and hunt a buck (In places where it\u2019s legal with proper license and permission) and bring home its head to hang on the wall in the living room, some people spend big bucks and make a fireplace out of one of the living room walls. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And some people, unfortunately, maxed out their decoration budget after that last set of basic furniture. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">That doesn\u2019t make it a lost cause though, sure, you could stare at the empty walls in your living room at your brand new home and be absolutely happy, but every now and then, freshen it up a little will give your living room, and even your entire home a brand new vibe. The best part about this is: You don\u2019t have to go hunt buck (And let\u2019s not forget, get the permit for it and all that.), neither do you have to import the most exotic foreign designer piece just to mix things up a little. (With that said, there are also local designer pieces in Singapore for your living room, consult your interior designer and see how you can incorporate those into your \u201cvery Singapore\u201d living room design.).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The truth is; and this might surprise you \u2013 Sometimes it takes very little to freshen things up! This, of course, also applies to living room design. Sometimes all it takes is just a little bit of wall art. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yes, wall art. It might not look like much, but it does make a huge. But don\u2019t take my words for it, see it for yourself:<\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_515\" style=\"width: 730px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-515\" class=\"size-full wp-image-515\" src=\"http:\/\/m3studio.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/before_after_livingrm.png\" alt=\"singapore interior design\" width=\"720\" height=\"480\" srcset=\"http:\/\/m3studio.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/before_after_livingrm.png 720w, http:\/\/m3studio.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/before_after_livingrm-300x200.png 300w, http:\/\/m3studio.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/before_after_livingrm-610x407.png 610w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 720px) 100vw, 720px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-515\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Image source: Practicallyspoiled.com<\/p><\/div>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While it is already a colorful living room with a strong vibe, the simple wall arts that go with the color theme really brings the living room to live.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And of course, it works really well with the classic white wall as well:<\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_516\" style=\"width: 1034px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-516\" class=\"size-large wp-image-516\" src=\"http:\/\/m3studio.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/before-an-after-1024x552.jpg\" alt=\"Image source: chuckebyrdwallart\" width=\"1024\" height=\"552\" srcset=\"http:\/\/m3studio.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/before-an-after-1024x552.jpg 1024w, http:\/\/m3studio.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/before-an-after-300x162.jpg 300w, http:\/\/m3studio.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/before-an-after-768x414.jpg 768w, http:\/\/m3studio.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/before-an-after-610x329.jpg 610w, http:\/\/m3studio.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/before-an-after-1080x582.jpg 1080w, http:\/\/m3studio.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/before-an-after.jpg 1407w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-516\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Image source: chuckebyrdwallart<\/p><\/div>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While changing apartments frequently is not really something people do for a variety of reasons, using wall-art to freshen it up and giving your living room and the home space and brand new vibe is not only effective, but also vey budget friendly, if you\u2019re a very hands-on person, you can even choose to do it yourself! And because its budget friendly nature, you can even update your themes by the season or as often as you like! <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For a city as hot as Singapore, living room designs often tend to be on the \u201cminimalist\u201d side with white walls to create a spacious and cooling vibe, which is a great strategy. However, a little tweak here and there on the wall does wonders to lighten up the mood and if you choose to do it yourself, you might just get a kick out of it as well!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Don\u2019t worry about it if you don\u2019t have an art degree, while paintings are a popular choice of wall art, it is not the only choice. Take this lady for example, she completely steps up her wall art game and created this elegance looking wall art using plastic spoons!<\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_517\" style=\"width: 989px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-517\" class=\"size-full wp-image-517\" src=\"http:\/\/m3studio.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/scultura-da-muro-con-cucchiaini.jpg\" alt=\"Image source: manicmakings.com.wordpress\" width=\"979\" height=\"734\" srcset=\"http:\/\/m3studio.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/scultura-da-muro-con-cucchiaini.jpg 979w, http:\/\/m3studio.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/scultura-da-muro-con-cucchiaini-300x225.jpg 300w, http:\/\/m3studio.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/scultura-da-muro-con-cucchiaini-768x576.jpg 768w, http:\/\/m3studio.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/scultura-da-muro-con-cucchiaini-610x457.jpg 610w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 979px) 100vw, 979px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-517\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Image source: manicmakings.com.wordpress<\/p><\/div>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I know what you\u2019re thinking, that looks nothing like plastic spoons and actually even looks expensive!
