You need to think about scent, touch and sound, so that everything comes together to create a homely ambience conducive to relaxing and unwinding. Making a space feel cosy is about appealing to all the senses, not just how a room might look. A cosy living room makes living in it feel easy and natural because it’s been designed with comfort in mind, from the way the furniture is arranged to how it is lit and what materials have been used. It’s not just about lighting a few candles and pulling out a soft throw either. It doesn’t take much to bring a warm, welcoming feel to a space – you’ve probably got most of the tools already – but it does require a bit of careful thought and consideration. You’ve splashed out on your dream sofa, bought a new coffee table and put a few of your favourite things out but nothing seems to pull it all together into a calm, cohesive scheme. One of the most frequent questions I get asked by clients is ‘how can I make my home feel cosy and inviting?’ Often it’s the finishing touches that we struggle with the most, but that’s what sets the mood and dictates the feel of a space.
