If you’re looking to create a cohesive and visually appealing living room, then remember that every element in the space plays an important role, including the often-overlooked radiator, which is frequently seen for only its functional purpose rather than as a prospective design feature.
While some opt to cover up their radiators with specially designed covers, other design-loving homeowners seek to style out the feature and work it their décor around it. You would be surprised at how well it can be incorporated into the whole room’s features when done correctly. With this in mind we’ve teamed up with Lincolnshire Radiators Direct, who are passionate about helping you explore the design possibilities that fabulous heating solutions can bring to your home. Let’s dive in and discover how we can help you style your living room around your designer radiator.
Fun finishes
Whilst everyone loves a fresh white radiator, if you’re looking for something bold and eye-catching, Lincolnshire Radiators Direct have a range of stainless steel, polished chrome, and anthracite radiators that really give something a little extra special to your interior décor.
These colour options demand attention and turn your radiator into a focal point, just be sure to opt for a colour that complements your current colour scheme unless you’re looking to completely re-style your living room.
Keep in fitting with your current design
If you want to create a harmonious space to kick back and relax, then be sure to coordinate your radiator with your current colour scheme and furniture style, that is unless you’re looking to completely revamp your room.
If you have a modern room with sleek and minimalist furnishings, you may want to opt for a contemporary radiator with clean lines to ensure the overall style marries well together, however, if you’ve opted for a traditional design with vintage vibes, then classic column radiators are going to look much better here.
Radiators are art
Art is subjective and who’s to say radiators can’t be seen as works of art in themselves? Instead of trying to hide away old and drab-looking radiators, invest in stunning designer radiators that will bring any living room to a higher level design-wise.
Make a feature of your radiator by opting for a bold colour or unique design, this will help to draw attention to it and also make the room more visually appealing. If you need some design advice on how best to style a variety of options then read on.
Some of Lincolnshire Radiators Direct’s must-have radiators and how to style them
Embrace the potential of your radiators and transform them from just a functional element to a stylish design feature with these useful tips.
The Anthracite Flat Panel Horizontal Designer Radiator is perfect for contemporary rooms. If your living room boasts neutral tones, and décor touches like pampas grass and plush cream sofas, then this radiator will offer the perfect contrast. It’s a bold statement piece that looks expensive but won’t break the bank. If, on the other hand, you don’t want the radiator to stand out too much you could incorporate darker colours into your room with a black coffee table or bold monochrome rug or artwork.
For a more fun and futuristic vibe, try the Chrome Flat Panel Horizontal Radiator. Chrome is a great option for smaller living rooms as the reflective finish gives the illusion of more space. This radiator would look great in any room in the house but especially under a living room window that’s adorned with dark-toned curtains.
The White Oval Panel Horizontal Radiator is still super modern but is slightly softer looking than the flat panel options, lending it to rooms that are modern but with a traditional edge. If you want all the radiators in your home to look uniform and don’t want to change them all at once or all too often, opting for a white finish will keep them in fitting for a long time yet.
For larger rooms with high ceilings, the Black Oval Panel Vertical Radiator could be the ideal option. Due to the radiator’s height, it looks best in rooms with plenty of ceiling height and the large surface area is a great way of heating larger rooms. Opting for black is a bold choice and really ensures that your radiator is the focal point of the room. Striking, sophisticated, and ultra-modern, it’s the perfect addition to a contemporary living room.
If you love the idea of a black radiator but your home is a little more on the traditional side and you want something to complement your panelling and vintage rugs, the Black Column Radiator is a new addition to Lincolnshire Radiators Direct’s column radiator collection and would be a perfect complement for your home’s interiors.
