How to Create a Focal Wall for Your Living Room (No More Blank Walls!)

How to Create a Focal Wall for Your Living Room (No More Blank Walls!)

Today we will be talking about the ONE thing that I feel every room needs- a focal point. A focal wall or focal point is simply a statement-making element that brings balance to a room. In the bedroom, it’s the bed. In the dining room, it’s usually the dining table, chairs, and a beautiful light fixture above the table. But what about the living room? There are so many elements to a living space that can become the focal point, that it may not be immediately obvious which walls to prioritize.

If you have ever wondered what to do with all that blank space on your living room walls, this video is for you!

Julie, you must work so hard on these videos! I feel like I am being taught by the very best professor!

[oyinva]

I really do have to say this. It’s very difficult to find interior designers who address the “real life” usage for spaces and homes. But Julie, I’m all the way in Nigeria and I use your tips consistently!! That’s a testament to how amazing you are!

I just painted the main wall in my Livingroom, the entire room pops now! it brings out the colors in the rug, pillows & art! a Gallon of paint can do wonders and it's budget friendly

The one picture with a large yellow/tan table that has a medium yellow/tan table on top with an even smaller red table on that DEEPLY amuses me. It's paired with the statement about fireplaces centered on focal walls at 4:36. That stylist is living their best life

Hi Julie! Thank you for all the amazing tutorial videos! When many on YouTube just use their channel to show off their designs, you actually teach regular people how to achieve the design of their dreams!

[enjayreal]

I alway appreciate the amount of work that goes into your videos. You stand out, Julie, you really do!
Thank you for the great inspiration that your channel provides. And thank you for the level of interaction that you have with your audience.
Well done. Fantastic video!

Love all your wonderful help. We have some "trauma drama" in our life right now so you are giving the inspiration to finish decorating our new home. Thank you! Bless you!

Thanks for a simple, concise look at how to "make a statement" in your living room and for using so many excellent, explanatory photos.

Wonderful! It's great to have the concept explained and broken down.

[stephenb]

This had to be an immense amount of work to put this all together. Grazie Mille!

This video is a big help for me on what to do with the empty wall in my house. Thank you Julie 👍

Julie I’m a 1:30 in to this amazing video and all I have to say is You Are the Focal Point of this video. The quality of your content is stellar.

[sulcatagrl]

Yes to a wallpaper video! That would be wonderful!

[jennychyeo]

Lots of ideas on gallery walls.
Thank you so much, Julie.

[debramason]

I cannot tell you how much I loved this. So many great ideas, and I learned so much. The photos are so helpful, and the rooms are so beautiful I paused or took screen shots of probably half of them, lol. This was perfect for giving me ideas for our new home. ❤️ Thank you, Julie.

[melisestall]

Julie! Wonderful, wonderful video. You explained the difference between a focal points, wall and hierarchy of space.

I really needed this to help me. I especially like how you showed different pictures that displayed various intents and style. ❤️

[margiegarcia-hall]

I enjoy the "don'ts" portion of your videos. The don't examples really help.

[clemdane]

Yes would love to have the video about using wall paper on a focal wall!

[sallylee]

I think you read my mind! After adding rugs to my home with the help of your rug video, I am now looking to figure out what to do with the walls. Thank you so much for the video, Julie!
