I have dark green couches with sort of an arizona print on the pillows, (pic if the link works). I have medium colored wood floors. http://pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/paineless4/detail?.dir=8289&.dnm=9515.jpg&.src=

First of all, go shipping for some new pillows. Pick out something with nice colors (nothing plain) to build your color pallet. Then from the pillows, pull out at least 3 colors that are appealing to you and use the lightest one for your walls. Too dark with dark furniture wouldn't do the most for your room. Also, maroon is very dated looking. The couches look ok and neutral enough to work with anything. You can get covers for your couches and to a total re-do. Look at HGTV.com for some good color ideas.

The link doesn't appear to work, so I am trying to picture it. To compliment the dark green coach, one would use a red. I just dont think it would work here. I think if you have dark green and arizona prints, go with a desert sand color. The clay color of the desert might just be what you are looking for. Maybe tying in some reds here and there might punch up the feel of the room.

I got the link to work and agree a deep burgandy very nice pic makes the wood pop!!Other choices would be a lighter green like a moss or work with an earth tone of brown sandy colour.

Go desert. Look at tones found is desert themes and indian artwork. This will accent the colors and patterns. Tans, Browns, Blues, Reds, and Yellows will work really well, pick somethign that works well for you.

Go for something neutral, like a toffee. Color match it to the hues in the pillows. This should complement your couches.

Red. I love red walls, and it makes the people in the room look good -- it's flattering.
