I don't know your room layout, or colors in your home, but it is so neutral it could do with anything I think. Tan and gray are lovely or get two of them and add similar dark pillows to a lighter couch in either another neutral or a color. The key is to balance it with pops of dark across from it, so if you have a light sofa, add some dark pillows on it., for example. They don't even have to be the same color just the same depth.

Try a couch that has a similar style with the studs and tuffs. It can really be any fabric. I think any color could work, but I would probably stay away from tans and browns. Too warm to go with this cooler gray.

As Lana said the key is contrast. Have some dark pieces and some light ones. Don't stress about trying to build the perfect living room over night either. Get the larger pieces first and then slowly build on it with rugs, tables, and pillows.

PS I would do two sofas and chairs or a sofa and chairs but not a loveseat. They are difficult to arrange in my opinion, especially if you like symmetry.

I agree gray and tan can look amazing together. The difference is those rooms were designed by a trained professional who carefully picked out each piece and had years of experience guiding them in blending the two tones.

The average person cannot do that successfully which is why I usually just recommend they go for the easiest design route which is stick to either warm or cool tones.

I'm of the opinion that neutral is the only way to go with a sofa so that you can easily change your decor colors if you decide to that at some point in the future. I think cream or off-white would look stunning with your chair, which I really love.

If possible go get another chair to match since you have a large space it would help to fill it. Then shop for a sofa at the same store and get some help from one of the deigners if they have one.

You need something to guide your choices -- it could be a prominent piece of art, or a rug with a variety of colors. Then you can assemble the pieces around that a bit. I think an oriental rug could be great, which would help ground your charcoal chair, then you could go gold or red or blue or any number of directions for a couch and other accent chairs.

I absolutely love all of these suggestions... I’m going to find a rug..... I’m looking at furniture right now!! I really love these 2 rugs. What do you think?? I walked around the store with a charcole color velvet pillow!!

I would go with a neutral one. Like Mary, I go with neutral for the big ticket items such as furniture and rugs. (Unless you know you will absolutely use red forever).

If you get the red one, you're stuck with red, with the neutral you could change pillows and have a whole new look. I also agree with Patricia that you should get another chair just like it.

Ohh I love it! Would match my sofa so well!

Love that chair, what a beauty!

It's such a rich color, your options are endless. I personally love navy and cream with grey, with a pop of yellow or lime. I'd start with an inspiration piece (artwork, rug, throw pillow) anything that has a pattern that coordinates with the chair, and work around that.

A few photos for inspiration...

Frankly I cannot conceive of buying ANY other furniture or even a rug without a plan based on actual dimensions of the room, including all doors, windows and walkways, how I would want the room to function, and how the room relates to adjacent rooms. Please do not make piecemeal decisions and purchases without a plan!

My plan is in action!! I’ll certainly post a photo when everything comes together!! Thanks everyone for your help.
