Comments (35)Have you considered painting that entire fireplace wall in a super hot orange/red glossy color to match the oxidized copper? Would be a show stopper! Or you could go to the other side of the color wheel for a contrast to it. You don't seem to be taking advantage of all the floor space. Larger, more colorful, fun, boho rugs would encourage spreading out the seating a bit more. The beige chesterfield seems a bit formal for the relaxes Bohemian family feeling you're after. Something a bit more slouchy would set a more relaxed tone....See MoreLiving Room feels empty and cold

Comments (106)Color!!!! Must have color!!! You just have a bunch of random neutrals of same intensity put together - white, beige, grey, greige, black, white, brown wood tone, beige-grey, blue-grey. Monochrome can work but there needs to be a range of intensities (from very light to dark) and textures to provide visual interest. Read up on the 60-30-10 rule and decide which color you want for each percentage, and then be ruthless about sticking with the plan....See MorePlease help me make over my living room
Comments (13)Tones of rug, wall color, sofa, framed in brown. Simple, blue, wood accent chairs because the rug is really the focal point and you made a great choice for your scheme. Love this coffee table with your rug. Touch of Asian and tropical. https://www.orientalfurnishings.com/rattan-banana-leg-coffee-table-with-glass-top/...See Moresongbird07
