living room update

Looking for some advice for living room furniture and decor. We are thinking of a grey sectional instead of the couches. Possibly smaller accent chairs ? Maybe Grey color. Would an ottoman and area rug pull it all together ? And advice is appreciated. Thanks !

I like the idea of grey couches but look for a lighter grey since there is already a dark floor and dark grey tiling on the fireplace. And what color accent chairs would you be looking into?

Sweet doggy. :) A few suggestions ... not necessarily these exact ones, as I don’t know budget and sizes needed, but just to show as ideas for you to search: Live edge tables — https://www.wayfair.com/furniture/pdp/union-rustic-mazelina-coffee-table-w001115136.html https://www.wayfair.com/furniture/pdp/foundry-select-nauvoo-coffee-table-w000897820.html https://www.wayfair.com/furniture/pdp/union-rustic-tindle-coffee-table-unrt1302.html . Woven styles — https://www.jossandmain.com/furniture/pdp/venetta-coffee-table-j000338554.html?piid=195560686 . A bit of an MCM feel, this comes in three color choices — https://www.wayfair.com/furniture/pdp/masaya-co-manzanillo-coffee-table-ndac1009.html?piid= .

Kitchen/Living room updates???

I really like the cabinet hardware you proposed. The table is lovely, but are you sure you want more wood in the space? You well may (I would already be at my threshold with what you have already), but it can get tricky balancing multiple stains and colors of wood in the same space. I would want something to provide some counterpoint to the wood, but that's me. The ceiling fan is fine. For the light fixture, I don't care for clear shades in general (though I know they are very popular), and the shape seems more industrial than country/rustic. The rug is about as far from country/rustic as I think you can get. Other than color, I don't see anything about it that suits the space, Braided rugs always seem to me to be the most "country" choice. A natural fiber (jute or sisal, though not if this is for the dining area) would suit the space. And I don't think you could go wrong with a traditional style.

First of all can you post more pics of the rest of the space? How much work can and are you willing to do? What’s your style? What are your needs?

Maybe you can add a bit of color with the accent chair, as you have plants adding a dark green or blue would help to animate the room and create a focal point. Also, are you thinking of adding a coffee table? It is the remaining element that is missed in your current design. I would suggest adding something neutral like a Barcelona table. I'll attach some ideas :)
