Does the blue in the rug match the blue in the couch and walls?

8 years ago

You are very talented. Beautifully done. I wondered if the blue in the couch was the exact same blue in the couch and if the Blue Grotto Wall paint shown is the same color as the couch? If the colors were different blues would this still work and why? Thank you ahead of time!

Hi, it was not intended to "Match" and I would not say it "Matches." After all, one is paint and one is upholstery. The goal is just to have it work well. So, other colors could work of course. I hope that helps.

We just painted a color called "Latte" over the dark red walls in our place and we keep thinking that someone left the light on! It adds that much light to the place as the red was just sucking out any light in the place. Find a color you like more for that wall and repaint...and/or maybe add a ceramic tile backsplash? It will make it feel brighter in there immediately as you will get a lot of light reflection. I love the idea of sage green with your cabinets.

Love your carpet choices here! I noticed that there no artwork on the walls yet. This will elevate the mood of the room since you will need an upper emphasis once your room is anchored with the carpet. It is easier to decorate around a rug, the one you love for sure, than around a focal piece, such as art. After you choose from any of the beautiful carpets above that work with your interior, take a photo of the room with the carpet installed in it. Have fun looking for the artwork that best sings with your carpet. and that grabs you. After you have the choice of art up on the wall, look for small accessories of colour of shape, size and texture that work with the whole composition last. Do not forget something living such as plants, which take the sterility out of the room, especially neutral walls and natural floors.

Hi Keith! It really depends on the mood of the room. If you want a warmer summery feel, you could pull out that light yellow tone in the pillows, that will go nicely with the grey. If you are looking for a cooler more relaxing room, then you go with the blue or a light blue/green like jtbino suggested. Good luck! :)

At the moment all your stuff is concentrated at one side of he room making it cluttered and bare at the same time. Pictures need to go at eye height, so maybe get a simple shelf built above the sofa at eye height for some knick knacks. Somehow your pictures seem very high up on the wall. You could cluster them together above the sofa maybe? You can still have your mantel but with maybe a better-selected range of bits on it. Agree that some shelving might be good in the alcoves but not above the line of the top of those pictures. I would have gone for a much darker colour for the walls (like navy blue) because the sofa would have blended in a bit more and it would look luxurious against the dark background. Plus dark colours give your stuff an instant quality upgrade. (I always say it makes my sh*t look like stuff) Sorry that's unhelpful as you've obviously made those decisions!!
