What color couch for this room?

We have found a sectional we like but are tying to decide on a color. The walls are a light tan. They have a light grey, darker great, light tan and darker tan. I'm no decorator so thought i would ask you guys. There are no and will be no curtains in the room. I attached a few pics. One is the floor color (kitchen) and one is showing the room in question while the floor was being done.

Comments (6)Thank-you both for your input! I think I'm tossing up between putting the chairs in the nook or against the long wall. If chairs go in the nook, it's cosy and there's more walkway space as you said, Luke, for beanbags etc. However, what would I do with the 2m wall near the entrance? Would seating there be a bit odd? However having the screen in the nook would allow for a longer row of seating I think? So potentially more people could fit in, although those sitting near the door may have an obscure view of the screen. It seems like both options have pros & cons! We don't have anything that needs to go in, so to speak, although plenty of seating options and tables for drinks etc would be really great!...See MoreHelp!

Comments (4)This looks like the room is at least 7 metres long? I am not an expert but have you thought about groupings of couches and chairs? do you entertain a lot or is this simply for a family? I would have a group that fitted around the tv for my family and then add more groupings and tables to take in any view giving it that party room feel. However you need to think about how the room will be used. Latest advice I hear is don't make the tv the hero of the room but we all need to see it too....See MoreWhat colour sofa to match with a grey leather sofa ?
Comments (6)Do you have a picture of the room? If you get a tan leather to go back with the grey, I would want to see cushions, throws, a rug and artwork that have lots of grey and tan to link the colour palette together. If you go for fabric, then your choices for decorating the space can potentially be broadened to your imagination... depending on what else is already in the space (that's why a photo will help)....See Morewhat colour cushions should I have on my taupe colour sofa?
Comments (1)There are so many shades of taupe it is impossible to say without seeing some photos of your home. I would suggest that you start looking at some light teals and pale aquas, but it really depends on what else is in your home. Best of luck, Dr Retro of Dr Retro House Calls...See MoreScott Mims
