living room rug to tie room together
Comments (3)thank you- so you think I should stick with the blues and grays and not try to bring in new colors with a statement rug?...See MoreHelp me pull my living room together please!
Comments (5)I really like the color palette of this room: https://stylebyemilyhenderson.com/blog/how-to-paint-over-dark-walls I see original mid-century elements in your room (love those panels on the landing!), so would go in a direction influenced by that. It’s too bad someone painted over the fireplace, I’ll bet the natural stones had a nice color and texture that could’ve been the basis of a great new color/style scheme with a more natural/organic feel. I’m not sure your budget, but look at West Elm, Crate and Barrel, CB2, World Market, etc for dining tables, coffee table, rugs, curtains, modern fireplace screen, and other items. And if you are wanting to go in a mid-century direction, do searches for lots of inspiration: ‘MCM living and dining room’ and other terms. Start saving ideas and narrow down looks you like. I’d angle the recliner a bit so that all the furniture isn’t lined up, and I’d move the cute kid’s table over to where the quilt rack is (relocate that). That’ll give you more of a walking area. Would it be possible to move the TV to the right, so that it’s all on the wall and not half wall/half stone? It’s going to be a great room! Again, look through inspiration pictures and I think it’ll give you some helpful ideas. You could have one accent wall (far dining room wall), but I’d go with a deeper color, like this: (Source: https://www.apartmenttherapy.com/get-the-look-mid-century-global-eclecticism-in-canada-235742) And you can certainly add in other styles, I’m not suggesting an MCM theme room — just using it as a base or starting point. Make it your own by finding things you love looking at. :)...See MoreColor scheme to tie these rooms together?
Comments (16)There is absolutely nothing wrong with these two rooms living next to each other and not color coordinating. Your living room is stunning neutrals. You've nailed it. Don't mess up a good thing. Your kitchen is vibrant but classy. Again, another acheivement. Just let these space be. If anything, focus on bringing in living room elements to your kitchen - use wood - walnut - countertop accessories. Even better if they have an MCM vibe. Ditch all the stailness stuff. Corral all the countertop appliances, Store ones you don't use every day. Have the other ones live together. What does the rest of your kitchen look like?...See MoreHelp! What paint color(s) to tie together open living/dining room?
Comments (5)Yes, Villa Grey looks very Celery on the wall (I have it in a bedroom, North & East light) I would go with SW Alabaster. a warm white that will look whiter in the light and warm, not yellow in the north light. (not to mention, it goes well with darker colors, so if you plan to do a dark accent somewhere, it's very soft. That red wall would look nice SW Naval (a deep clean Navy) Personally, I would paint the ceiling and all the woodwork SW Alabaster for a fresh look, and to open up the space....See MoreStyldod
