59 Parisian Living Rooms to Make You Swoon

Parisian living rooms can bring elegance and sophistication to one of the most important rooms in your home! Parisian style living rooms tend to take one of two different approaches: they can be traditional and classic (reminiscent of France from centuries past, for example) or they can be modern and updated (think: mid-century modern, and warm hues). Whatever the style, it’s clear that Parisians love to take inspiration from the past when designing their living rooms. They could easily opt for a vintage style sofa to take center stage, and pair it with other pre-loved furniture that could have even been passed down through the family.

If you just want to get the Parisian vibe in your home without going full-blown vintage, then you’ll still find some charming ideas for decorating your home, too! Take a look at some of our favorite Parisian living room design and decor ideas below!
