Style Your Living Room for Every Design Trend

Your living room is the heart of your home – a place for relaxing, connecting and showing your personal style. With the right furniture combinations, you can create a space that’s functional and beautifully styled. Below are five favourite interior trends, along with pieces from Mocka that help achieve each look.

Japandi Serenity

For a Japandi inspired space, the emphasis is on simplicity, natural materials and a serene, clutter-free atmosphere. A piece like the Noosa Slim Bookcase offers tall, slim storage in a clean profile that doesn’t overwhelm – perfect for weaving in a little display of ceramics, a plant and your few favourite books. Pair this with a low coffee table like the Tove Curved Leg Coffee Table whose soft curves and minimal finish help keep the space gentle and unforced. Focus on a neutral palette, tactile textiles in linen or cotton and minimal styling so the room feels calm, warm and grounded.

Scandi Calm

Scandi interiors celebrate light, function and a relaxed welcome. Start with an occasional chair such as the Harlyn Boucle Occasional Chair – its textured boucle upholstery adds comfort and softness, inviting you to sink in with a book. Anchor the lounge zone with the Blair Round Nesting Tables in Natural, and if space allows, add a simple media console or sideboard like the Zack Buffet in a light wood or white-timber finish. Layer in soft throws, gentle patterns and light-filled windows to complete the Scandi look that’s timeless and welcoming.

Modern Coastal

If you’re drawn to breezy, beach-inspired spaces, modern coastal style is light, fresh and comfortable. Combine pieces like the Lenny Armchair with accents that hint at natural elements: think rattan or pale timber and crisp white surfaces. The Malena Buffet works beautifully here, especially styled with sea-glass tones, shells or driftwood objects on top. Then add a soft rug in sand or oatmeal tones and sheer curtains so the light flows freely. Aim for a calm base with decorative accents drawn from nature to create that relaxed coastal vibe.

Mid-Century Modern

Mid-century design is about bold lines, elegant furniture silhouettes and a confident yet comfortable feel. A strong choice is the Blair Buffet with its rich finish, rounded legs and refined details – it becomes an anchor piece in the lounge. Pair it with the Ray Occasional Chair and the rich Maverick Bookcase, accented with a coffee table that roams well between modern curves and retro spirit, such as the Zayne Round Coffee Table. Choose accent colours like deep teal, mustard or forest green, and balance them with warm timber or walnut tones for that distinctive mid-century polish.

Farmhouse Cosy

For a living room that feels warm, lived-in and inviting, the farmhouse style does the job beautifully. Opt for furniture with character – the Emery Panel Entertainment Unit can bring rustic charm without feeling too heavy. Add the Watson 8 Cube Storage Unit to display treasures, books and baskets with texture. Emphasise comfort with plump cushions, chunky knit throws and a mix of new pieces with older finds for authenticity. Finish with soft lighting and plenty of natural fibre accents so the space feels relaxed and homey.
