Need help for my living room
Hello,
I am having some trouble trying to decide how to finish my mix and match furniture set. I have a grey 4 seater and a tan leather chair. I am missing one more chair.. Struggling to find the right one....that is around the same high and depth as the leather one. (Within my budget that is!)
I quite like a chair (photo attached) but legs are not the same, is much deeper in size (15cm) but I think it would match. What do you think?
Should I just forget about the mix and match design and get a chair the same as the 4 seater?
Also, would you get the other chair in a similar grey tone or a lighter one?
thanks!

Comments (19)That wall paper doesn't go at all.. and you don't need wallpapers.. how about a cream shade on the fireplace part of wall with oxblood coloured (from your curtain flowers) horizontal band below mantel, while the rest of the walls be lilac? Ever considered stoenwork similar to your fireplace on that wall? Also lower the hung photographs.. should be at least four inches below the windows' top edge.. Your sofas are quite dark. they seem aubergine.. is there any way you can at least place one of the sofas across from a window so that light falls on it? right now it is in the shadows backed against the windows, therefore more dark (does it seem so when you're in the room too?) The mirror (though nice) is too solid and thick for the mantel. can it go on a clearer stretch of some wall? fourth wall? What is the fourth wall like? idk how the fourth wall is like but how about angling large sofa at 90 degrees to the window with the single seater also angled in the corner where the lamp is.. and place the side table with lamp infront of the window (i-e at the corner of the 'L' made by t he sofas).. If possible get lighter lamp shades (cream).. Love the cushions.. place two of these cushions on the single seater to relieve the large sofa.. Please turn the rug lengthwise along the length of the sofa.. get a glass/metal table (if tots allow) or cream ottomon as center table.. The TV is too large for the rack, no? The vase is being wasted under the tv.. Florals and stripes can be mixed depending on print.. but if you bring anymore florals in this room, it would be best to match the flower shape to those in the curtains. I find the curtains too short......See MoreNeed help with my living room please
Comments (21)Seeing it as an almost whole, I do think now that I like the soft, patterned curtain for the room. It could become overly severe, and that would be enough to stop that happening. Second thought, you don't need a side table for the sectional, but you do need something there to hold a lamp -- silver or glass would probably be best. The stand could be very plain, a box shape, even, in the same finish as the wood you already have. I liked these from wayfair.com -- though I might change the shades on a couple of them. Not that they're bad. The last one is an alternative approach if you fancy a bit of colour a-poppin'....See MoreNeed help for my living room colour scheme!
Comments (9)Is the chandelier thing seeming a bit small for the room or is it just me? Given that your walls are plain, the sofa is plain how about a patterned rug? Do you like Persian rugs? I find that dark green wainscotting too heavy and would paint it a lighter color. Given you have just moved in I assume you are planning to be there a while. If you like traditional style do you want a fairly safe color scheme re walls and curtains, keeping future resale in mind. Or are u happy to decorate according to your tastes? The mirror seems a bit small to me....See MoreNeed help for my living room

7 years agoHello, how about trying something slightly different - if you tie in the grey upholstery from the sofa, but introduce a wooden frame armchair, the brown leather would be complimented without being too matchy-matchy.
Here's our Otto Chair which might work...

7 years agoThanks minnie101. I would say the room is narrow'ish but not too long.. I love the facing each other sofa arrangement. However, we want to use this room more like a media room, cosy evening room to watch tv or a film at the weekend, so sofas facing each other don't think will work for the purpose of this room.
On the wall opposite the sofa we have put floating cabinets and the tv, this wall will be the feature wall, with some colour that will complement the decoration, cushions, rug, art, etc. I've added a photo, it's a bit dark but it gives you the idea.
I always liked the idea of having different pieces of furniture that complement each other, it's just finding the right piece. But I shall keep looking!

I would then tie it all together through your cushions, accessories and rugs.
