Furniture Design Dilemma

burgundy leather couches-what color chairs would go with them

5 years ago

I have two burgundy leather couches with taupe color walls. What color chairs would go with the couches? Currently I have black and white buffalo check and it looks great but they aren't comfortable chairs so I need to replace them. Any suggestions for color?

Have you considered a small print with some burgundy, taupe, and maybe black as well if that appears anywhere else in the room? Many prints read as solid from a distance but will add variety and may be more cohesive than a second solid color

I agree with you but I don't have a source for using my own goods and making the recliner/chair that we would like. Thanks for you help, much appreciated

Can't believe it. I Finally found some Palliser color swatches! (not my store but hopefully can get any of these) I would consider leather to match the sofa. In microfiber, I'm drawn to: Grade B Balance Midnight Grade C Graphite Grade C Aberdeen Russet (boldest) Grade C Cranage Shitake Grade C-Otis Black (pattern) Grade F-Allana Bone or Allana Storm (patterns) Of course the beige colors are safe. I'd love some opinions! The sale ends tomorrow. Here is a link that might be useful: Palliser Color Swatches

Brown leather can look classic but the ubiquitous puffy brown recliner/sectional furniture in stores can easily dominate a room and grab all the light out of it. You can balance a room with a brown sofa with accent color pillows, good lighting and a new rug. Finding a sofa with a size and style that fits your room and has a pleasing shape will make a big difference as well.

Based on what I see you have far too much furniture in the space, I assume the area is not on the order of 23 to 25 feet in each direction? With a dual recliner sofa, the center ottoman is redundant and in my opinion you have two too many chairs in the space. One sofa, two chairs and that's it - plus side tables But that's not hard and fast, scale drawings are needed to know for sure. Perhaps don't buy everything at once - start with the sofa and two chairs, then get it in the space and go from there.

anna, couldn't find a source for that one. but similar ones: Uttermost Marlow-Bellacor Lucide integrated LED-AMazon ET Hoopla, Lampsplus this one is different. Alluria you could do two of these large pendants at each end of the table https://www.lampsplus.com/products/chandeliers/style_contemporary/color_black/usage_dining-@-living-room/page_3/ the mini blinds don't really fit w/the modern vibe. try something like these smart motorized blinds (cellulars maybe) and Luxaflex-pirouette blinds. these are Hunter-Douglas and come in a slew of colors. or some black woven woods https://www.blinds.com/pla/blindscom-woven-wood-shade/501858 BTW,,blinds.com is having a big sale right now. I've order 10 items from them. they have excellent customer service.
