White Living Room Eye Candy
Comments (4)Beautiful rooms. Amazing that when someone knows what she/he is doing that a white room doesn't end up looking cold and stark....See MoreNeed advice for dark brown sitting/ computer room
Comments (16)Thanks to all of you who took time to respond. My dh and I have concluded that the dark brown is really not what we are liking in that room. htnspz really hit the nail on the head with bringing up the light issue. In addition to the dark color , we live surrounded by trees. So now my new question is a paint choice. In our downstairs, we have some strong colors such as Hampshire gray and a barn red. In the foyer I have a sand beige which is much like sepia tan by bm and does have a little peach undertone to it. This sitting room is off of this color. With all of the color going I am need some neutral relief. Please comment with paint suggestions. I love color but don't want my my house looking like a circus. Thanks so much....See More### Gallery Updates!

Comments (18)A lovely space, and the chocolate brown wall is luscious! I know you said you wanted red as your accent color, but I would think in terms of red being a second color - everything else really is brown. For the accent? A deep turquoise or teal - great with the brown, and amazing with red, too. I assume the tv is going over the fireplace. We don’t see the wall opposite the fireplace, but from looking at the kitchen pix, it would seem that the wall is solid on the left side as you look at it, and has a sliding door on the right. I don’t know if you are thinking sectional or separate pieces, so I will just throw some ideas out there. I would look for a piece like this, to put facing the fireplace/tv. thomasville derby sectional, fabrci 1331-40 You could add a leather ottoman if you feel you need a comfy place for feet , or this round copper coffee table. I think this could be really great in there, with the brown and red tones in it, and the curves to work with the rug and chair shapes and balance all the rectangles in the room. tribecca round copper table A sofa table or low cabinet behind the couch with a pair of lamps for lighting there. Then I would put a pair of upholstered swivel chairs on the left of the couch, facing the window, with a lamp/table between them. Perhaps a deep red fabric like this: sutton swivel glider chair, fabric 2622-91 Then over in the corner to the right of the fireplace, I would love to see a big reading chair, floor lamp and side table, perhaps a chair like this, in leather: linden street leather recliner Finally, a rug with all your colors and some great pattern, perhaps this: linden street chunky loop rug, in the aquamarine background On the back wall to the right of the slider, if there is room, you could have a desk and chair, if that would be useful, or perhaps a small table with two chairs for playing games. I don’t know what you are thinking for window treatments, but panels would be nice just for a finished look. If you need privacy you could also consider woven wood blinds. These panels from JCP might be ones to consider: linden chenille panels in henna stripe Then pillows and accents that pull in the reds and turquoise/teal. And of course art, but that is a personal choice....See Moreoceanna
