Comments (13)The multi colored peice is an art work two different pieces. I just bought the rug and coffee table for now and am definitely taking your advice and waiting until we move to buy some of the other items. I have attached the plan for the room. Thanks again for your help . I was very stuck! we are putting in blinds for the windows and removing the curtains for sure....See Morehelp me in choosing the colour of my living room
Comments (8)The wall color appears to be a very light blue and the floor appears to be gray. Echoing Beverly, you could stay neutral with the upholstery and add some color with an area rug. Here are a few rug options with a grey sofa and patterned skirted swivel chairs. Note that all the rugs have blue in them. The color is also repeated on the chairs. For curtains, simple linen curtains in a crisp white....See MoreHELP! Some ideas for living room paint colour

Comments (13)I see what you've done including/incorporating your sofa's pinkish tan in your pillows and rug and using analagous deeper pinks. You might have better luck with a color scheme that relies on whites and then contrasting colors (navy, charcoal, chocolate brown) and lets the sofa's pinkish tan stand by itself. (Patricia is right that photos of more of the room would get you more helpful advice. She is wrong, IMO, to fling fly-by snark at your sofa instead of advice; and in how she spells the word "please". Proofread, please, @Patricia Colwell. Your comments are challenging to read. Thanks.) Maybe this thread could help? https://www.houzz.com/magazine/how-to-decorate-a-living-room-stsetivw-vs~105196187 I'd start by painting the walls white.

If you want to keep your rug, tone everything else way down and incorporate its dark chocolate. Look at the photo in No. 8 - patterned rug....See Morekandrewspa
