I used Castlestone at my beach house. We have a navy blue sofa - looks good together. The paint is soft yellow on the wall.

WE have a smoky navy blue sectional and our walls are Behr's "Beeswax".

Posted this several months ago. finally getting around to actually painting the walls. I love beeswax color suggestion but my sofa is a darker shade. Either way I'm going to grab a paint chip sample of beeswax.

My living room is basically a large box with with a large french door. My floors are dark polished concrete and I have a huge jute rug. the french door trim is painted white and furniture is medium wood tones.

I know it sounds completely boring to the pros here but Im looking for a pottery barn type style. Something I can live with for a long time. I'm really thinking about just buying off white slipcovers but I thought I would try to get some more recommendations before I spend money I don't really have. btw, my sofa and loveseat are basic with square arms and my ceiling is low :( 8ft so not sure a dark color would work. Here is a picture of a living room I'd love to have.

Thanks ahead of time and sorry for the long post.

In our FR navy is an accent color. Our chairs by the FP are green. We used BM Natural Beech. It's kind of a light butter cream which looks great with Navy and Green.

We just used BM Seaspray in our LR, DR and stairwell which would also look great with a navy sofa.

These are colors you don't normally see here.

Not sure how well you can see the wall in this picture. I definitely need to take newer pictures since we have new art above the FP and new accessories.

mrsmarv, I love your room. The colors look great together and make for a very stylish and comfortable room. I'm going to look at that color when repainting too.

I have RL Sailwhite which is creamy white, that contrasts beautifully with my bright white trim. I love it. I have bold colors in other rooms, but my lr has 8 ft. ceilings BUT with a 1 foot tray making them 7' at the edges ...sigh. And, it gets little natural light. Every other color was just too dark and gloomy. This is clean and natural without being stark..much like your pic above.

In our LR we have a navy blue leather sofa with walls painted BM Pine Grove, a deep green/brown, trim is BM White Marigold, a yellow/green based white. The room has windows on 3 sides (N, S, W), so it gets strong light all day. We tried a few light colors but they washed out on us, so we went dark and rich. If your room gets a lot of light, consider going darker, the navy can be a neutral. We have accent colors in many variations; orange, red, yellow, purple and lighter greens, and it works in its own quirky-yet-traditional way.

Good luck-
