The TV would be a little bit too high for me.

I would go with medium wood color

I couldn’t resist a black accent wall

Thank you

Confused .. 1st picture looks light and airy and 2nd one so dark.
Can we see a whole room picture?

If you love the accent wall by all means work/figure out the rest.
There are great minds on Houzz !!

Move the tv down. It should be at eye level to a seated adult. Then put a light or medium wood console below it. You wanted the room to be “light” and area, but you painted it black or are showing ideas with black walls. Conflicted?

Here are some other angles

Yes I have a dark accent wall and dark furniture but I don’t want to make it any darker.

Don’t do dark wood. Or any wood. It will clash with the floor. A very plain/modern white might be nice. You need some color too.

I wanted to get an area rug to cover most of the floor

Medium wood tone TV console (to add another organic element (lower tv so it’s at eye level when seated) graphic rug with cream, black, sand/light tan but primarily light so it contrast with furniture then choose toss pillows with texture.

Thank you

I love your dark colors but don't go to dark with rugs go light I would ask what color your dogs are and add lighter objects in room black and white is classic

Maybe a white Ikea cabinet

Both dogs are beige and white

Here are the few TV areas we have designed for clients. Please note the consoles used.
