The overall comfort in the house will depend on how well the space of this room is organized. The key role in the design of the living room is played by the choice of a modular wall.
Advantages
Such furniture has a number of beneficial features.

Thanks to this, the owners of the apartment have the opportunity to use the premises as efficiently as possible, taking into account the needs and lifestyle of all family members.
Modular walls are selected from different elements in different variations.

What are they?
There are two types of modular sets for the living room - a wall and a slide.

The principle of arranging furniture in a living room stems from the configuration of the room itself and its area, the number of doorways, the location of windows, and so on.
Depending on the situation, the parts of the modular wall can be arranged in a linear order - along one wall or along two opposite ones. A good corner option. In this case, the furniture will stand against two adjacent walls, and the corner itself will be occupied by a spacious wardrobe or pencil case.

Design
When choosing a modular wall, it is not enough to decide on its own style, the materials from which it is made and the price. It is necessary that the design matches the general style of the living room, the main color scheme that is present there.
In a minimalist style room, 1-3 colors usually prevail. In combination with them, you need to choose the tone of the wall. A safe color is white as it goes with any other. True, it is easily soiled. Therefore, the furniture will have to be wiped regularly.
Externally, the headset may look matte or glossy. Glossy designs are very popular today. They visually expand the space, filling it with light. Often, tinted glass and backlight lamps become elements of such walls.
Figurines and paintings in the style of abstraction will complement the external showiness of such furniture.
In an eco-style living room, it is better to choose a modular wall in wood shades. Light colors, for example, birch, look the most organically.
A wall model is suitable for the general high-tech style, in which a special opening for an impressive TV is provided. In terms of color, the headset modules should be monochromatic and similar in shades to other pieces of furniture in the living room.
Someone finds beauty in shabby. So a dark wood-colored wall, as if covered with dust, will suit a shabby-chic living room with its dull and purely homely interior.
The living room in the Art Deco style, in essence the heir to the Baroque in modern life with its breadth and splendor, will fit furniture decorated with gilding.
In a room imbued with the spirit of pop art, combining bright, harsh colors and unusual design items, a wall would be appropriate without a lot of decor elements.

How to choose modules?
And yet, the choice of each individual module for the living room requires special care, not only in terms of color and stylistic solutions. To furnish a spacious room, there are many solutions. It is more difficult to choose a set of modular elements for a small living room.
In order for the room to remain a place for people, and not just for furniture stuffed with things, you should correctly dispose of the available space using the components of the modular wall.
In this case, it is the corner models that will come to the rescue. It is possible not to lose usable space due to the corner element, which has the shape of an isosceles right triangle. This design allows you to place in the living room, for example, the same wardrobes, for which in small apartments sometimes there is simply no other place.
Thanks to the corner modules, it is easy to assemble even a U-shaped wall in the living room. This will give you even more storage space. So that all this furniture does not look bulky, it should have glass and mirrored doors, and include whatnots.
For a reasonable organization of space, you need to pay attention to such little things as fittings, lighting elements, ease of opening cabinet doors, and so on. The wall should not only be roomy and look beautiful in the interior, but also meet the ease of use of each of the modules.
Also, when choosing, you need to estimate in advance how the dimensions of the furniture will correspond to the size of the room - the area, the height of the ceilings.
In a small room, bulky roomy wardrobes look as out of place as a neat, modest wall in a spacious hall.
