Brown Couch in Family Room
I have a brown couch in my family room and I think it makes our room look smaller and darker. Thinking about getting a light grey one instead. Before we go out and buy a new couch, I’m wondering if there’s anything else we can do (cover, pillows, blankets etc) that look very nice. We have new wood floors (French oak with a natural tone) being installed next week and would like something more modern.

I vote to change the couch to a different color but the color would depend on the tone of your wood and walls. Is it warm or cool? Gray is generally more cool while your walls look warm which would only work if you tie it together with a rug that has both in it like this one.zealart
Месяцев назад: 4Agree to wait until the floors are in. In the meantime, I'd remove the loose brown pillows and replace them with non brown ones. Your couch also looks like it could use more stuffing on the back pillows, which would make it look less sloppy. The ottoman color doesn't seem to go with it either. It feels too cool toned with the couch, wall, and carpet.

Дней назад – 24Once the floors are in, you should be able to get a better idea of it the brown couches with work in the space. Have you looked at repainting the room another color? Maybe try adding a rug with an accent color that would go with brown? You could easily add white or cream pillows and blankets to the couch along with a light colored rug.
