Hi Kylie, A rug is a great place to start & we completely agree with using earthy or neutral tones to keep with the both the colour of the carpet & the walls. You might then think about adding splashes of colour with some patterned scatter cushions or a throw rug. And a hand painted canvas would be a simple way to dress up the walls & bring your space to life. Deep reds & sultry blues would ties in well. Here's a few ideas for you: Good luck! By Dezign

Rug looks good. Don't get rid of your coffee table. Just slightly sand the top and pick an antique white or light grey paint with primer already in it and give it 2 coats. It will come up great. wouldn't take long to do. Add a tray with candles and small artificial plant, *& would look great. Good luck.

If you like round rug then go round rug. Will suit your gorgeous chair. Just make it large enough for legs of sofa and chair to sit on.

Hi Claire, I don't think you are looking to change your whole house, but thinking about wanting a Hamptons inspired outdoor area, think white black beige and natural timber colours. You could paint the bricks white or black and possibly paint your doors and windows the either of the same colours, some inspiration photos for you ( your pebblecrete colour will blend perfectly. cheers
