Paint Home Decorating living room

What color paint with gray couch and wood paneling

3 years ago

New condo living room has wall of mirrors, which we intend to cover with removable wallpaper. Largest object is gray couch. Questions: (1) what color wallpaper and paint would go nicely with the couch? (2) should we keep adjacent dining area white or paint the same color as the living room? And while I’m at it, (3) what color would you recommend for the entertainment/wall unit? Thanks!

The floors are stronger than the couch
So bringing some of that carmelish looking
color up like in a chair as this photo shows
They pull the grey couch up on the walls
With a greig color that has a warm undertone
I think that wall color would work on all walls
But this real designer uses a darker greig
In the adjoining room
I love the mirrors

I would go with the same color for entire space. Greige it seems nice choice with your flooring.

I would paint the doors. Any color. Without seeing the entire room, or see the colors you are working with throughout the home, I won't suggest a color. I would Beef up the trim moulding around the door(s) keep it white as the featured trim in the room. With the highlighting of the trim/wainscotting, I'd paint the walls a hint of color to show off the features. some fabric on the windows for texture? I would leave the bar the natural wood tone you have going. shelving in the alcove, nice... I would personally go with a black or Ebony shelf, but same... I don't know the look you're going for. Keep the woods in the same family, Is the floor carpet, or an area rug? I'd work on the flooring, Bars and carpet don't go.
