A Transitional style living room means a few things! A calming, neutral color palette, limited use of accessories, incorporating many textures and blending contemporary and traditional design styles. Transitional style design is very popular in many homes because of it's inherent ability to be so versatile in any style of home. For instance, if you have a more traditional style living room with moldings and wood features, adding more contemporary style furniture, like clean-lined sofas with asleek wood-trimmed frame would actually create a transitional look perfectly in the space.
