I’m in the process of furnishing my living room.  I enjoy seeing the different living rooms posted here.  I was wondering if people lean more toward neutral colors or a colored sofa/chairs?  Thanks

Re: What color is your sofa?

Sorry, but I have a patterned sofa. I am well aware that this is out of style, but so be it. It was pricey, is comfortable, and I happen to like it. You need to buy what you like since it will be in your house and you will see it everyday.

Re: What color is your sofa?

I have a deep blue based red sofa.  Red and all of the tints and shades are my key color.

This is Christmas.

Re: What color is your sofa?

Right now my living room is neutral. My sofa and loveseat are a tufted style with fabric buttons in an oatmeal shade. I also have dark chocolate brown leather accent furniture around the room.  It's a very big room.  

 

Prior to this furniture, the room was a much bolder look with a red sofa and upholstered chairs.

hi @RetRN 

I like a patterned sofa.  My last one was patterned and it was so pretty.  I was just ready for a change.  I agree with you.  I don't go for "in style".  I just pick what I like.

@RetRN I will join you in being out of style because I have 2 patterned sofas that match (OMG) in Living Room with solid chairs.  I've had them forever since LR is rarely used.  Burgundy sofa and love seat in Family Room and I am still happy with both rooms. . @cotton4me  Buy what pleases you as you are the one living with it.

Does your home have seperate living room and den, or do you have a "greatroom" concept?

 

The brand of my couch is Cosy Craft.  Everyone says it's the most comfortable couch they have sat on.

Thank you.  I love him.  A lady's bf made him for me.  He enjoyed ceramics as a hobby.  Our son 40 years old,  was 2 at the time.

 

These are my lamps now, the large beige one and shade.  I changed them right after Christmas.

It takes me a long time to find just the right touch after having taught design.
