6Focal Point

It is a really beautiful eclectic living room decor. Even though you may want to showcase all of the interesting, vintage or sentimental items you have, choose a few items to avoid confusion and choose one item that stands out from the rest like a vintage red bike to design a focal point.

15Colors Used Freely

If there is any style that would handle mix of many different bold colors such as rich blue, red and yellow, that would be the eclectic style. The important point is to keep the base as neutral as possible and add only a few colors without going overboard, allowing eyes to rest at some point in the room.

18Different Styles

In a rustic living room with rustic furniture, contemporary seating set can actually be used. While one sofa is leather, the other can be fabric, while one wood is unpainted, the other can be painted white. Mix things as you go along until you reach the satisfying result.

24Cluttered but Collected

If minimalist style is popular with its uncluttered surfaces, the eclectic style is popular for the opposite. Use of different colors, styles and textures make the room look cluttered. The point is to control the clutter and make it look collected.

27Wall Decor

When it comes to decorating the walls, using metal frames with wooden shelves contrast each other, add depth and dimension to the place.
28Collector’s Items

If you love collecting items from thrift stores or antique shops, an eclectic living room is the perfect setting to showcase them. An old trunk can be used as a side table to make it functional or an old wicker chair can be added to the room to bring a different vibe to a corner.

Do not be afraid to use the same patterns over and over in an eclectic living room. You can use one pattern at least for three times to design a cohesive space with the help of colors.
30Different Shades

Different shades of the same color can be used throughout the living room while metals with different colors and finishes help bind everything together.
