Thanks for the replies. Roarah, the color of the couch is anout the same as the darker color of the chairs. I tried with a similar color and it did nothing for the chairs. I'm looking for a pop of color. I think the pattern in the chairs is what the problem is, nothing seems to go with such a design. Palmimpset, great site, thanks for the link. The color below is more of what I was going for colorwise: http://beautifulpillowsandhome.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Product_Code=0302&Category_Code=c-34&Product_Count=62 Below is a link to the couhc minus the pillows that are on there http://www.schnadig.com/index.cfm/furniture/catalog.product/sid/3/cid/36/pid/391/start/1/francois-sofa.cfm The pillows that I got with the couch are the burgundy ones below, like the black ones in the link above of the sofa, but a burgundy version. These are the pictures of the pillows I got with the sofa: There are two of these square pillows, and one lumbar http://www.homefurnitureny.com/productimage.php?product_id=922&current_image=4 http://www.homefurnitureny.com/productimage.php?product_id=922&current_image=4 And lumbar pillow like this http://www.homefurnitureny.com/productimage.php?product_id=922&current_image=4

A lovely space, and the chocolate brown wall is luscious! I know you said you wanted red as your accent color, but I would think in terms of red being a second color - everything else really is brown. For the accent? A deep turquoise or teal - great with the brown, and amazing with red, too. I assume the tv is going over the fireplace. We don’t see the wall opposite the fireplace, but from looking at the kitchen pix, it would seem that the wall is solid on the left side as you look at it, and has a sliding door on the right. I don’t know if you are thinking sectional or separate pieces, so I will just throw some ideas out there. I would look for a piece like this, to put facing the fireplace/tv. thomasville derby sectional, fabrci 1331-40 You could add a leather ottoman if you feel you need a comfy place for feet , or this round copper coffee table. I think this could be really great in there, with the brown and red tones in it, and the curves to work with the rug and chair shapes and balance all the rectangles in the room. tribecca round copper table A sofa table or low cabinet behind the couch with a pair of lamps for lighting there. Then I would put a pair of upholstered swivel chairs on the left of the couch, facing the window, with a lamp/table between them. Perhaps a deep red fabric like this: sutton swivel glider chair, fabric 2622-91 Then over in the corner to the right of the fireplace, I would love to see a big reading chair, floor lamp and side table, perhaps a chair like this, in leather: linden street leather recliner Finally, a rug with all your colors and some great pattern, perhaps this: linden street chunky loop rug, in the aquamarine background On the back wall to the right of the slider, if there is room, you could have a desk and chair, if that would be useful, or perhaps a small table with two chairs for playing games. I don’t know what you are thinking for window treatments, but panels would be nice just for a finished look. If you need privacy you could also consider woven wood blinds. These panels from JCP might be ones to consider: linden chenille panels in henna stripe Then pillows and accents that pull in the reds and turquoise/teal. And of course art, but that is a personal choice.

Florals are my "red" ;) and might even be too curvy given the rug in this small 10x12 room. The final choice of sofa fabric is not displayed in the above photo of the rug. It is a lighter/duskier blue than the samples displayed. There is no navy in the carpet either. I've identified other fabrics I like in shades of blue that might compliment the sofa, but I think the scale is also too similar to the rust pillow. I'm waiting for samples of the fabrics below to see scale and color. Both are described as slate blue, but don't look like slate blue in the photos. I don't have anywhere else to use the rust pillow and it's a nice counterpoint to the sofa. Given the size of the room and the boldness of the rug, I may have to go with a solid. I just haven't found the right shade AND I'd like to find a solid with a "profile" such as trapunto or matelasse. I guess the hunt continues.

a y suggestions for rug and accent pillows . window should I put curtain similar to the bay window or stg different. thank you!
