High & Low: Build a Transitional Modern Living Room On Any Budget

It’s up for debate for sure but I think for many, the living room—especially for apartment or condo dwellers—is the most used space in their home. It’s where you relax, entertain, get some work done and maybe even have a bite in front of the T.V. Having a small space doesn’t mean you can’t do all that and still have a stylish and functional living room. If you like neutrals with a sprinkle of personality and dash of modern style, then you’re going to love this living room and we’er going to show you how it’s possible on any budget.

The original inspiration for this look came from this fabulous home tour we spotted onApartment 34. This living room is a perfect example of a space that is filled with neutrals but doesn’t lack any personality with lots of interesting textures, styles and finishes plus some fun art to make it both relaxed yet modern.
