I need help with decor for this room. I want a modern feel and love neutrals. Ideally I’d want to keep the wall color the same. Can anyone help?! We’re mounting a tv over the fireplace.

Comments (11)I like the overall feel of the space I agree drapes and much fuller would be nice .I do not like the wall color or the art if getting rid of the gray is the point then get some art with a bit of green it it and something you love to look at . The light does nothing for thstspace the drum shade is okay better than wht you have Ilove this color for walls it is a total neutral for me I cut it 50% if a hint of colar is all you need and before choosing the wall color Get the art and drapes in a color you love then match the paint to the drpe s. I like faux silk for drapes at lest 2.5 times the width of the rod for sure. I then woudl choose fewer pillows in colors from the new art , just think if you need to move pillows to sit you have too many. A rug would be agreat addition again in a color from the art so maybe just a darker shade of a color from ther e....See Moreliving room help
Comments (11)Start by making the t v wall more important. Using the wall paint color, paint a wider (wider the better) console with it. Inspiration photo. Add some (real) greenery, put in a wicker plant stand to work with the accent color in the rug. Scout around for LED battery powered wall sconces in brushed brass. Move the rug and the sectional a bit more to the right so you have more of a path by the window to get in and out of the room. Good place for tripod floor lamp. You can make this off-side work if you center the new console on the wall, but install the t v more to the right of the wall so it aligns with the center of the sectional. This is where you hang the artwork. Like this: This is a gallery set of art prints that you can download for $10.00, from etsy, and frame yourself, I'd stick with gold/soft brass framing to compliment brass sconces. https://www.etsy.com/listing/1630091776/neutral-coastal-vintage-landscapes-and?ga_order=most_relevant&ga_search_type=all&ga_view_type=gallery&ga_search_query=gallery+wall+art+set&ref=sc_gallery-1-1&pro=1&dd=1&plkey=2d1e9a12e4474b9cdbe1e05cbf4b8d85437711b1%3A1630091776 As for the window, purchase a lined panel, thinking white with a blue trim. This example of the install will work well. Notice how the rod is hung higher and wider than the window. In your room, you would stack back the panel to the right of the window. Again etsy for the panel. Except you want a brushed brass rodl...See MoreLiving Room Help
Comments (7)The current paint is fine honestly. I definitely like the idea of curtains or maybe some Roman shades. What’s bothering me most in this photo is the orange pillows. I think you need more texture and maybe stick with whites. I also think the coffee tables a bit small …...See More8ft ceiling bowling alley living room, help me with paint & furniture
Comments (16)Something like this, maybe? I hope the plan is to scale; with these large sofas, inches matter! I used the 90-inch sofa length but didn't know its depth or the dimensions of the chairs, so those are guesses (40 inches for sofa depth, 36x36 for chairs). I found the bookcase online so used its actual dimensions (lower right corner of plan). Guests enter the main seating area (assuming the upper right is the entry), with the sofa L facing them. (You can still sit across from guests by using the chairs and the sofa opposite them.) I chose a nesting coffee table that can be pulled out when needed to serve a crowd. The traffic lane from entry to dining room is now outside of the conversation area, leading past an art wall. The fireplace corner is for one-on-one conversation and for reading, with lamps (a table lamp on the sofa console and a floor lamp behind the other chair), the bookcase, and an ottoman to put your feet up. You could add small tables between the chairs and the windows to hold your refreshments. And here's a rendering: I used a subtle metallic silver (paper or paint) on the ceiling for the depth that the softly reflective surface gives. The ceiling then looks less flat and lid-like. The wall color is one of the lighter stone colors from the fireplace, used on the beam as well as the walls, and I did add crown molding to both walls and beam. This shows a darker floor because the dramatic sofas seemed to need its contrast, but I realize that I'm looking at one room only, not the rest of the house that I assume will get the same flooring. I did use large art, because to my eyes that scale holds its own better with the large, assertive sofas, but you could do a gallery wall somewhere if you prefer (just make sure the total arrangement is large enough). I used an antique arched window frame between the windows (echoing the curved backs of the white chairs) because I like the contrast a touch of age adds to a contemporary room. The rug is a soft abstract in neutrals and gray/blue. For the fireplace area, if the stone can be matched, running it to the ceiling would also help the room to feel taller. The ottoman between the two tufted chairs is shown in a neutral in the plan, but it might need to repeat the deep blue for color balance in the room. Or you could bring in the blue in a smaller rug (5x7?) under the chairs, set at the fireplace angle. Choose one that plays well with the larger rug. Ideas to consider, anyway; it will be a beautiful room!...See MoreNicole Maria

2 years agoHi Nicole. Pretty room! I think tv mounted sbout fireplace with some kind of swivel mechanism is the onky way to go in this room. What size is that wall between the hall and the foyer? I think something like this layout (found on grayoutstudio.com) could look great. Sofa on that wall( if big enough) with one end table and art & sconces above… Long rug (the rug would be centered with the sofa not the fireplace). You may have to buy a custom size rug… the 2 chaurs on one side of room then one or 2 big poufs or ottomans on the other side…
