Living Room Style Statistics

Your living room is one of the main rooms of your house, and its style will usually match the overall design; however, if you are building your own home or redecorating your entire house, then you might want to choose a style you’d like your living room to have and then match the rest of your house around it. We have laid out all living room styles from most popular to least popular to make your choice easier.

Living Room Size Data

It’s not a big surprise that most people consider their living room medium-sized. With more and more people choosing to live in smaller spaces like apartments, there is less space to work with. Large living rooms also take up a significant portion of the chart.

Just like in any other room, the color you pick for your living room can make or break the entire aesthetic you want. We found that the most common colors people choose for their living room are Brown, White or Gray.

Most Popular Types of Living Rooms

The type of living room you choose will, again, depend on the layout of your home. Most people choose the Open style because it provides lots of flexibility if you decide to change things at some point.

Specialty Data

An important aspect of choosing your living room type and style is the living room’s purpose. The most popular living room specialty type is Formal; this makes sense because most people use the living room to entertain their guests.

Living Room TV Aspects

A majority of people surveyed have a TV in their living room, and much of the time, the space is built around it. A wall-mounted TV setup is the most popular within this group.

Picking the color of the walls for your living room is an important decision. If you have an Open type of living room, then your choice of color will probably have to go with the rest of your home. You have more flexibility if you have a living room with its own space.

Floor Materials

Usually, you decide on the floor material depending on the use you plan for your living room. The most common type of flooring is hardwood, as it’s durable and goes well with different styles.

Living Room Fireplace Info

Not everyone has a fireplace in their living room, especially as they are not necessary anymore and are used primarily as aesthetic objects. If you have one, a fireplace can make your living room feel warm and cozy.

Fireplace Surround Statistics

If you decide to add a fireplace to your home, you must also choose the surrounding, as well. Stone is the most popular.
