15 Sophisticated Formal Living Room Designs
Whenever we hear formal, we usually imagine seeing an elegant, organized person or space. Today, we will talk more about living room spaces – formal ones. From how we usually see formal living rooms are designed for social-callers. That is why homes of prominent people have one in their house. Some say that a formal living room merely collect dust in furniture and decor that no one is allowed to touch. Remember Grandma’s china?

While one living room can definitely be high end, we have a lot of great design ideas for any home and any budget, take a peek at our list of 15 Sophisticated Formal Living Room Designs.

Austrian roman shades. Austrian-style roman shades are by far the most formal and traditional, delineated by several vertical and horizontal rows of ruched gathers and scalloping along the bottom. This is definitely a lovely living space.
