The table lamps sits across the room from the chair. The floor lamp will sit next to the chair. Gold or silver. Artwork in room has modern thin gold metal finish frame FYI.

In the areas where carpet meets tile, is the carpet already installed? DIL just had carpet installed and where it met the tiled bath floor they did a 'roll over' with the carpet and it butted up nicely to the tile. The masterbath was another story! Because of radiant heat the tile was too high so the carpet installers used a carpet shim to raise the height. Turned out very nice!! As mentioned above, the only other option is wood. We tiled laundry & bath floors that ended up higher than the adjoining hardwood hallway, so I had a wood shop make a custom reducer and then we stained it to match the tile. Here is a link that might be useful: Trim, molding

What's the difference? American Standard AC Gold SI vs Silver SI
Q
Comments (3)
I don't understand why AmStd has gone out of their way to confuse homeowners with all this Platinum-Gold-Silver nonsense. There are some differences between the gold and silver models mainly price, cabinet, and sound. You want the gold series Allegiance 13 condenser with matching evap coil if you intend to keep existing conventional Rheem furnace. Now if you are considering a complete new system with new furnace look at the Silver XI, Freedom 80 with high effect blower. Same as Trane's XT80 model. I would think the 60 K size would be correct. This has a 3 ton rated blower so up to a 3 ton condenser would be just fine. And if you wanted to, you could upgrade to the higher SEER condenser, Allegiance 15 model. Add a filter cabinet, new lineset, and the 803 stat or HW mdl #8321. IMO

Grey Sofa pairs with silver or gold mirror? Blank space over sofa.

Susan, yes they are too tall. They should ideally be no taller than than about one inch-maybe 2 inches-higher than the sofa arms. Yours are 6 or 8 inches taller than the sofa arms. Possibly look into having the legs shortened?

Combining metals - black, silver, and brass/gold
Q

I would need to see all the choices together and usually mixing metals is not such a big deal maybe a black and gold lamp base would work. I aslo think you need to be careful to not get too many things going on in the same space and that includes colors . I think the pillow shows all the colors you are using but IMO the style of the pillow does not work with the style of the chairs. Eclectic can be done really well or really a mess it is fine line .

Such a fun fabric! I think the gold compliments the chair better and will tie in with the art frame nicely.

Patricia she has a garden stool next to the chair and looks like she will be adding the floor lamp next to chair on other side.

Brass, but suggest a different style. Given your chair is a little bulky, I think it needs more visual weight.

Definitely not silver. BTW where is the lovely silver double gourd lamp positioned? Is it even in the room?

Since the room appears more casual, I might consider a different less formal finish & a floor lamp with a shade so the light is not just focused on the one chair
