Ozzy & Sharon Osbourne’s living room transforms dark wood
Dark wood is a classic feature of both American and British homes. It provides a feeling of history, luxury, and tradition. The classic look gets a new lease on life in Ozzy and Sharon Osbourne’s home. They have paired it with textural furnishings for a cozy and inviting feel.
In the Osbournes’ living room idea, dark wood defines the room’s perimeter, stretching across all four walls. A recent Instagram post reveals the inviting space, with the family cuddling on the gray velvet couch. Leather armchairs and dark wood floors add to the space’s traditional feel. A punky light fixture and red and white striped coffee table bring a bit of an edge. The built-in shelves in the wood walls are filled with books and decorative objects, adding to the lived-in, familiar ambiance of the space.
Jennifer Ebert, design expert and digital editor at Homes & Gardens states: ‘The Osbourne’s home is a perfect example of how to introduce natural materials into your home in a timeless way. Though biophilic design has been trending for some time now, I think people worry that lighter tones or unfinished wood of a modern farmhouse look might be more of a fad, but there are hundreds of ways to integrate wood.’
The color drenching of dark wood on both the walls and floors is an especially striking feature of this room. As darker brown and chocolate tones become more popular, this look is a great way to emulate the interior design trend in a manner that will last. ‘When it comes to hardwood flooring, many people play it safe and choose traditional ‘light oak’ shades, but I say go bold with your flooring choice! From walnut to tobacco, darker shades of wood can really add warmth and unique character to a room in the same way that darker paint shades do,’ says Carly Greening, Creative Product Manager at The Floor Room.
The texture of wide, herringbone flooring idea brings further visual interest to the Osbournes’ space. Greening adds: ‘To make a real style statement with your flooring, choose a darker colored wood in a patterned design, such as traditional parquet or intricate herringbone, to add beautiful texture and timeless charm to any space.’
The beauty of the style comes through in the contrast of materials throughout the room. Ebert states: ‘I love the mix of velvet on the sofa with leather on the chairs and the intricate carvings on the walls in this living room. Using texture in interior design helps to draw the eye around the space, creating an alluring and stylish feel that doesn’t fit neatly into just one style.’
