IMO if a mixture of wall pictures like these is used on a striped wallpaper, the pictures should at least have balance & symmetry. I think the table in front of the sofa was used to give more balance, but that misses.

I like the combination of the neutral sofa with the pillow prints and colors. 

 

I don't like the small table in front of the sofa, wallpaper, or the blue lamp. I'd remove all the wall art except the largest print, and I would center that one above the sofa.

I do like wall art groupings; I have my art done this way.  However, I feel the table is too small and should be longer.

There is too much going on to appreciate color or anything for that matter. They eye has to be able to flow smooth from one point to the other. When you have this much going on you can't do that.

@jubilant,  I agree both the colors and other choices are interesting.  Casual, fun.  Suggestive to me of a sort of blithe, bohemian personality, with that refreshing emphasis on nature in the various botanicals.

 

I like the way the big, gourd-shaped, pale blue lamp pairs up with the small, deeper blue vase on the wall, too.

I too like the lamp and wall vase together and I love the sofa color with the blue lamp.

I would remove some of the wall art....probably keep all with a hint of blue to accent the lamp.

The throw pillows and tiny table are a complete miss for me. I would have less pillows and choose different prints that compliment the sofa, lamp, and vase.

Re: Interesting Color Combinations

I like the mix of colors except for the lamp and vase. What I don't like is the anxiety I feel from all the various prints and wallpaper. Less is more.....except in the case of that coffee table which just looks silly.
