7 narrow living room ideas recommended by interior designers

If you, like myself, are cursed with a narrow living room and struggle with decorating it, just know you’re not alone. But also, know that there are many things you can do and narrow living room ideas you can incorporate to visually widen the space, make it look more balanced and cosy.

Similarly to small living room ideas, when it comes to narrow living spaces it’s all about being smart with what you put in the room, how you style it and also how you paint – as all of these can either optically widen and enlarge the space or do the exact opposite, making your narrow lounge appear even longer than it already is. And obviously, we don’t want that. And neither do you. So this what you can do instead to make your narrow living room the best it possibly can.
