When you decide to buy a new house, chances are, you will be sold one which

sell it. Hence, the rooms, designs, interior, decor, and everything is very 
generic and basic. To add character to a builder-grade home, it is absolutely 
necessary to implement modern living room ideas and renovation ideas to 
your house. If you are looking for remodeling living room ideas, you are in

Balance and contrast
Balance and contrast are the keys to a good looking house. It is absolutely 
necessary to maintain balance and contrast in every aspect of your house to 
achieve the best result in terms of aes
The basics of balance can be explained by the 70-30 and 70-20-10 rules, 
which reiterate that one primary color, theme, style, or texture should 
dominate 70% of your room, and the second one would take up the rest 
30%. You can also choose a more quirky element for 10%, and reduce 30% 
to 20%.
To achieve contrast, always use one element as a foil to highlight the other 
elements in your living room.
For example, you can paint one of the walls in your living room with a pop 
color, and use moody tones for the rest of the walls.
You can use the same technique while choosing floors, decor, furniture, 
lighting, etc.

Adding a touch of greenery will instantly transform your builder-
basic living room into a personalized and customized space. The 
good news is, adding plants and trees to your indoor space need 
not be an ordeal. Instead, it is easier to implement and maintain 
than what you would think.
If you are short on space, you can choose small indoor plants like 
cactus and succulents. The good thing about them is that they 
barely need any care.
If you are looking for a little more adventurous feel, you can get 
indoor trees in your living room which would give a more rustic 
aesthetics.
The planters and pots you use for your indoor plants also add 
character to a builder-grade home. Choose them while keeping in 
mind the aesthetics and theming of your entire living room. 
Greenery in your indoor space boosts the visual appeal as well as 
your mental health.
Minimalism is the way to go
In 2020, minimalism is not an alien concept anymore. And there 
are all the good reasons for it to become more and more popular 
as we go into the next decade. Minimalism makes a lot more 
sense than gross materialism when you look at the sustainable 
side of things. The principle of minimalism is surprisingly simple - 
throw away what you don’t need. This simple mantra can change 
your living room, your house, and your life.
Go ahead and have fun renovating your builder-basic living room
