I have a tan/camel colored couch I purchased two years ago when I was living in a small one bedroom apartment. I've recently purchased a house and want to get a loveseat to help fill the living room and am wondering what my options are as far as color goes. Do I have to get something that comes close to the tan/camel color, or can I branch out and get whatever I want since my couch is kind of neutral? Any suggestions on what colors might look good with it?

You're lucky your couch is a neutral colour so you can put a few choices with it like burgundy, hunter green, navy etc. Take throw cushion of opposite colours on you furniture (tan on the loveseat and the colour you choose for the loveseat on the couch). You can get great idea of colours that go well together at most paint stores or Home Depot etc. Another popular colour right now is chocolate brown but I myself am partial to cranberry and tan. Goodluck.

I would choose a print for the loveseat that has the tan/camel color of the couch in it. That would make it look more intentional. Also, the couch is neutral so should go with everything but if you had to you could always slip cover it.

With a neutral tan couch you can get almost any color you want. You could stay concervative and get other shades of brown or blues. Or you could go more modern and get red or purple. You could also get a print that has a little bit of the brown couch color in it, and then get pillows in the same print to put on the brown couch to pull the look all together.

Lighter greens like Olive colors, with white , even reds. Blues, browns, rich chocolate browns. i hate buying pillows, I'm never happy, so I went to a fabric store and took a pic of my couch with me and found fabric and made my own. Same color with recliner, chocolate browns. Really just depends what style you are going for. Maybe go to a paint store and grab up some color swatches and play around with what colors look good together. they don't have to match, but they should work together. Also maybe grab some home decore mags from the store shelf and check those out. Those have fun ideas and spark creativity and style. Don't rush, find what you like.

Pesonally, I would not go to far from not matching. Since your couch is a neutral color, I would go with another color, such as burgady, hunter green, navy blue, so that it is not completely sticking out like a sore thumb.

How about some nice prints to go with that ...even if you where to get another neutral sofa then you could get one of those sofa covers ( surefit) to change the sofas . i would tell you to get a sofa with bold pattern like something floral

How about leather, it looks good with everything. Some throw pillows with some color and it will look great.
