Please, I Need help with my living/dining room area

11 years ago

Hello,

I am not sure what to do with my living/ dining room..My walls are mostly beige and there is some plum color in my lounge. My curtain is off white.

My lounge suit is sand color, I have orange and soft green cushions. Coffee table and TV stand is nut brown and my dining table chairs are suede raisen.

I Have a white TV bench as well. Shall I use the white one or the nut brown TV stand matches with my coffee table.

Also, I need a rug under the dining table? Shall I go same color or different one?

I want to get a nice rug but I am stuck on the color. Also, the color of the lamp or things to put on the nut brown coffee table...Any suggestions? Thank you so much..
I am going to add some photos.

Hi daisy daisy, Marie here.
Your pillows aren't pulling in the plum paint colour - quickest fix is to pull that plum colour into the space with area rug and toss cushions.

for the rug - go textural - tone on tone - you'll get more longevity out of it
then bring in toss cushions that have both wall, sofa and plum colour in it
(get rid your existing toss cushions - they don't go with anything) - then bring in some hits of antique gold and silver - gold looks amazing with purple...good luck!

On a budget I would just add identical frames with pictures around the TV. 2 on the sides and 4 along the top. I like the clean lines of the current TV stand but it would look better against your floors and with your furniture if it was painted a dark brown. I think a round side table next to the chair would look very nice and tie in with the ottoman. Other options would be to create a built in for the TV with shelves on either side. Or you could also add an electric or gas fireplace and put the TV above the fireplace.

Other colours that work with red are turquoise, apricot, peach, any blues, yellow, even some pinks and greens. (Look to gardens for inspiration, or Old Masters paintings). I'd find patterns with combinations of those, or Vys colours, in a rug, and chairs or cushions.

there appears to be a small space between the windows in the dining and living rooms and a space on the entry side of the dining room wall and the wall on the pantry side of the living room...each option has it's benefits but testing how you like to arrange your furniture will be the best way to decide. without proper measuremnts my rough plan is not to scale but shows the four variations with some furniture, good luck with your new home

I found a pink kitchen rug online now. I want to share with you all.

Thank you Marble Design, I never thought blue and pink would suit my colors but yesterday when I put my bedroom pink and blue cushions next to the my plum (just to see how it looks) and off white cushion for my sofa chair, it looked really nice. Thank you.

Hopefully, I will find a nice black floor lamp.
