All I had to see upon opening this one was the, (sorry, but ugly to me) splayed leg midcentury side chairs and I knew I just needed to move on. Interestingly enough, there's something I sort of like about the coffee table and can maybe half-way tolerate the sofa, though I'd not choose it. I can even take the magenta and gold pillows, but the side table, the remaining pillows, the peacock art and the table top decor are all pretty dreadful in my book.

I love color but this is a mish mosh to my eyes. I do like the peacock picture though.

@jubilant I love the color of the sofa and that is all. It's a mess.

A very dated room, IMO. Nothing looks comfortable or coordinated. Well, maybe in one instance: that peacock picture was probably acquired because it "matched" the couch color. (A sadly popular decorating concept in the 1970's.) This room was put together by someone with little talent and then abandoned for the next 50 years. Ugh.

Personally, I do not like anything about this room.

Alligator, zebra, peacock? Table too big for the room. Don't like anything except the orchid.

I like all the color but not all the stuff on that table----hopefully that is just for the photos----just pretty and happy to me.

I like the sofa color.

I would replace the peacock, throw pillows, and end tables. and remove most of the stuff on the coffee table.

I would give this room a cottage or coastal look with the pretty color sofa.

While not my particular style, I find it interesting, and most of all, appreciate that it is not cookie-cutter, but gives off an individualized personality.

The confident color mixing, the peacock print, the orchid, zebra, etc., give me a vibe of youthful, exuberant, vaguely Parisian influence. A pruning of the accessories would give it more punch, but I find it whimsical and happy.

While I always enjoy bright rooms I have to agree with most, it's just a bit much.

What is up with the one curtain that is black and white??? Maybe it's just me???

And the peacock is a big NO.

The sofa color is ok, but nothing else in this space appeals to me. I don't think the other colors complement the blue sofa color. I don't like the color combinations here.

This room looks like it was decorated as a result of a raid on grandma's attic.

This isn't "bold color" to me first of all. HA There is color definitely which to me is a good thing, but nothing over the top. I like that they have individual style as someone else mentioned besides boring same old, same old. And who cares if you mix patterns or heaven forbid different animals! It's more eclectic chic to me. It also looks more personalized to the owner instead of a bland photo shoot room which never look lived in (even if staged).

@jubilant

This room has a nice, calming vibe. Love the sofa style/color & the peacock colors. Although, I'd transfer the peacock to a different room & replace it with something else. I don't care for the tables or the leather seats there. I'd replace all of them. The area rug looks nice. I'd replace the purple pillows also. The room is also airy looking.

Thanks for sharing.
