Pretty Color Combination

I'm not much into gray at the moment but I do like a pretty dusty blue. I came across this picture this morning and found this so refreshing and pretty.

I love gray, and the gray blue here. The only thing I would change is the rug. I love my wood floors, so I would love to see this room with the wood. It is a beautiful room!

This is really pretty, but I would swap out the neutral rug for a more colorful rug just to add a little pop to the very nice neutral room......

Serene and pretty..you could easily add decor for the change of seasons and Holidays to this room.

I love when a room isn't locked in to a color scheme and can be decorated easily throughout the year.

I can take or leave the sofa and rug, but otherwise, I'm afraid the wall and window are about the only things I find appealing in this vignette. Don't care for the tables, lamp, pillows, art or table decor...

@DREAMON I also like that this room is not locked in to a color scheme. That is how I have my great room now and I'm loving that all I have to do is switch one pillow or put different flowers in a vase and that's about it!

The color is pretty and it has a calming effect. I would like to see curtains on the windows, panels preferred. I feel it would give warmth to the room.

@jubilant ,

I do the same in my home...it's easy and makes a noticeable difference.

I'm all for easy

I don't see any dusty blue in that room, just gray and other boring neutrals.

@Kachina624

Gray is dusty blue. That's what some of the professional paint people will tell you.

I like the wall and window...better with curtains. The sofa looks comfy.

For some, these colors are relaxing and understandable since they do have meaning. Gray, the color of tranquility. Relaxing for me, though, is surrounded by my favorites...burgundy and navy blue.

@Kachina624 This is how my eye sees it: The first one and the last one are dusty blue and the two middle ones are gray.

I have the combo on the left on my cream sofa. I recently bought all three. The floral one is what is called dusty blue so that's kind of what I see as that color now. In some light it does look gray. In other light it looks to have more blue in it.

@jubilant Maybe it's my tablet or eyes but I see no blue whatsoever.

@Kachina624 Ha! You sound like my husband! He sees no blue in that new pillow combo of mine. I guess it's all in the eye of the beholder. He says.... he knows gray when he see's it! I believe you both. LOL

Colors are very pretty along with the style. the sofa color & pattern are very nice & the pillows go very well. Love the texture on the window blind. However, the art piece barely shows anything so should be replaced. I'm not really a coffee table person so I could take it or leave it. I'd also remove the brown basket under the side table next to the sofa. Altogether, a pleasing, relaxing room. Thanks again for sharing.

I can sort of go with 'dusty blue' on the sofa in the original photograph, but I'm seeing no blues on the 'dusty blue themed wedding' card (all grey) nor on the sample pillow card... A lot of it has to do with the configurations and levels of sophistication of our various computer screens and, dare I say, some of it has to do with just what the emperor is willing to buy into...

It's looks pretty, relaxing, & serene. I like the sofa, pillows, wall, and window. I don't care for the tables, lamp, or artwork. If the art or flowers had more color, it would be more my style.

Calm room. May not be my choice but is attractive
