Find Your Vibe: 5 Living Room Neon Looks That Always Hit

Regardless of your room style, whether it's minimal, retro or artistic, you can curate a space that will work for you! Here are five ideas taken from some of our VitalNeon designs.

1) Minimal + Cozy

Consider a simple warm white script above your sofa or credenza. A sleek neon light sign provides an ambient glow without clutter. We suggest phrases like "This must be the place" or "Good Vibes" will feel both inclusive and inviting. Pair pillows and throws with table lamps to achieve an inviting vibe, or check out our other quote signs to find the one that suits you best.

2) Retro Pop

If you like color and some attitude, embrace neon in pink or yellow, like "Lavie en rose" for soft romance or " don’t kill my vibe" for a cheeky spirit. Pairing it with mid-century furniture and color-blocked prints creates an eye-catching retro-meets-modern vibe living room. If you want to bring even more color, browse our multi-color options.

3) Wall of Art

Create a wall of art using framed photographs and neon art together. Use a small icon, such as “Infinity Heart” or a simple script “Amour Cursive,” to build the depth and balance that we desire. If you're a fan of artist pieces, Bobby Berk has collabs such as “Love Wins Rainbow,” and Jean André has “Bonjour” in our artist collection.

4) Gamer / Media Lounge

This idea is exciting because you have unlimited potential. Convert your television or gaming area into a whole zone. Install an RGB LED light strip or LED neon light strip adjacent to your wall with media. Add a dimmer and an instant atmosphere for movie night! Framed Designs such as “Extra Chill” or “On air” create cool backgrounds, are easy on the eyes, and completely upgrade the vibe. From the RGB collection, you can see color-changing pieces as well!

5) Entertainer's Statement Wall

If your living room will be where you host friends, go big. A sign saying “Welcome to the jungle” or “Light it up” or other such large sign creates instant energy, singularly above a bar cart or in a lounge corner, taking up empty wall space. If you are going to be hosting events at your home, the phrase “Happily Ever After” could work as decorations for all celebrations or any decorated room. Create a custom neon for your family name with a favorite saying.

Where to Put It: Placement + Sizing Tips

The placement and size of your neon decor for a living room create balance. Once you decide what to order, measure your wall and make size tests using painter's tape. 

• Above the Sofa: Select a sign that is approximately 60 to 75% of the width of your sofa and orient it approximately 6 to 12" above
• TV/Media Wall: Use the space to the side of the TV, so there are no unwanted reflections, and dim the neon for movie nights.
• Console or Sideboard: Center a smaller LED neon light (like a heart), probably 4 to 8" above the top of the console.
• Gallery Wall: Plan to leave 2 to 3" between any wall frames and allow the neon room to breathe.
• Corners & Alcoves: Vertical signs (or even icon signs) can fill unused space and add depth. 

If your living room gets a lot of natural light, consider a larger size or brighter color to keep the glow visible through the day.

Color + Brightness: Pick the Perfect Glow

Color is where neon becomes expressive. Here’s how to pick the right tones:

• Warm White: Cozy and welcoming, perfect for neutral, soft spaces.
• Pinks/Reds: Fun and social, great for lively lounges or bold décor.
  Blues/Greens: Cool and calming, ideal for media zones or areas requiring focus.
   

Brightness also matters. Use a dimmable controller so your LED neon signs can shift from daytime accent to evening ambiance instantly.

Install Made Easy (And Renter-Friendly)

Every VitalNeon LED neon includes a lightweight acrylic backing board, mounting kit, and plug-in power supply. The majority of signs can be assembled in minutes, with no complicated wiring necessary. Renters can use strong adhesive hooks (with proper weight limit) or even lean the sign on a shelf for a less permanent look. 

Our neon construction stays cool, is low voltage, and is built to last. It is safe around children and pets and much tougher than glass, making it perfect for everyday living room decor.
