Couch color? Help!

3 years ago

I need help with a couch color. Note- these are NOT the exact couches we’re going with- just found the colors and need to pick something. We are planning an L shape Sectional with chaise on opposite Side.

Walls are agreeable grey. counters and window sills and are tan- ish granite. Below are the couch color a and a picture of our floors.

With the color that is close to your wall color, it doesn’t give you much contrast, but you could bring in color in pillows, rug, etc.

One idea could be to tie in the tans in your space, which could be a nice look.

Below: Similar color scheme as above, but wall is white, so more contrast with sofa color. But this would work with your wall color, too - and ties in the tans, etc.

The charcoal grey gives you more contrast with lighter grey wall.

What a pretty and serene room! I actually like the faded denim look. However, if you want to replace, I'd probably stick with denim again. It may wear better than light linen (which I love, too) and also go better with the leather sides. For instance, in winter, that is, if you use it in winter, you could go with kitted pillows or flannel.... Also love the suggestion of a seagrass rug, at least during the warmer months.

Any big store that sells furnishings will have catalogs that will show interiors full of their decor etc, displaying different options in a pleasing way, and giving you all sorts of clues of what goes with what. Whether it's Ballard Designs, Pottery Barn, CB2, West Elm, Anthropologie..you name it. The main problem with it-you don't want your room to look like a catalog one..:) The companies show their products. Your house should show you..which is much more interesting and complicated. So take clues from the pics, and then hunt stuff, partially, elsewhere. And especially look everywhere for art that touches you deeply. Look at it like a book..since that what art does-it makes us feel and think things, it transports us, it can even change us...would you match a book exactly to your decor? no, right? (tan and grey look great together. lots of beaches are a bit tan, grey, and a lot of seafoam..))

So, the french doors (?) to office are across from the sofa? Have you considered sofa "against" window (maybe with sofa table and lamps) and TV console on the wall with mirror? The chaise would then be under the other window. You could use C-tables + coffee table. Keep green bench and accent chair along wall with sofa so paintings stay there. Not sure width of sofa would work in front of window, but something to consider

Cream/beige/linen/flax color + grey walls.

And the other color option looks like a blue/grey on my monitor.

The grey wall here is lighter than your’s, but this setup would also work with your wall color - and you could bring in same/similar colors to tie in with the tans, etc

So the idea is - any of these sofa colors could work in your space. It really all depends on your preferences and the look you would like to have + how you set it up. I hope these ideas and views help.
