So, you want that designer living room look — you know, the one with the cloud-like couch, sculptural side tables, and just the right amount of "I-have-my-life-together" energy. But do you spend like a diva or save like a savvy stylist?
We curated two living room collections:
One is luxe and ready for its close-up.
The other? Budget-friendly without skimping on style.
Let’s dive into these dueling vibes, shall we?
SPEND COLLECTION — Modern Glamour That Wows
Total: $4,018.95
If you're investing in your forever space (or just really like compliments), this collection is all about modern lines, plush fabrics, and luxe finishes. Ideal for cocktail hour, book clubs, or solo Netflix marathons where your couch is the main character.
Coffee Table – Nested, sleek, and stylishly versatile
Area Rug – Abstract softness in ivory + gray tones
Accent Chair – Structured comfort with luxe upholstery
Floor Lamp – A glam glow with metallic flair
Side Table – Asymmetrical, artsy, and unexpected
This room says, “Yes, I host dinner parties... and yes, the charcuterie board will be curated.”
SAVE COLLECTION — Chic Looks for Less
Total: $1,276.93
Ballin’ on a budget? We got you. This collection captures the essence of designer taste — at a fraction of the cost. Still cozy. Still stylish. Still everything.
Coffee Table – Rustic and modern with major dupe vibes
Area Rug – Neutral, textured, and wallet-friendly
Accent Chair – Velvety curves that feel designer
Floor Lamp – Minimalist silhouette, max impact
Side Table – Trendy, compact, and under $100
This look is perfect for renters, first homes, or anyone who’d rather splurge on wine than furniture.
Final Mood: Curated Style, Your Way
Whether you’re on a “buy now, cry later” journey or embracing your inner budget icon, both of these rooms bring big aesthetic energy. And the best part? You can always mix & match — splurge where it counts, save where you can.
