What color should I paint the walls so these will go together?

Question

I have a nice green and gold sofa, an upholstered wing chair that is red damask, and a chrome coffee table.

Answer 1

Like maybe a tan or coppery color. That would look pretty good.

Answer 2

With the colors you mentioned, you could go several ways, depending on the style you want to go with.

1: Tuscan
2: Indian (India)
3: Moroccan

All except the chrome coffee table. I would change the color or turn it into a coffee/seating table by upholstering it to match your other colors.

Answer 3

first, it doesn't sound like chrome goes with the furniture...2nd, which of the 3 colors do you like the most? Start out with using an accent wall in one of the colors...and a soft color on the rest...you don't want to put a whole room in a dark color (it will appear smaller) if it doesn't have adequate natural lighting in it. I am a painting contractor by trade, I have deep maroon, charcoal green, and navy blue throughout my home, but have used those colors according to the natural lighting in my home...and I live in a small home, it works cuz I have the natural lighting for it and I have different colors within the rooms..use your imagination....

Answer 4

People sometimes make the mistake of decorating "around" something that is beautiful in itself, but that doesn't quite work for the look they really want. So, to answer your question, you might first want to decide on the look you're trying to achieve. Then you can figure out what it will take to get it. If you don't know what look you want, spend some time looking at decorating books and shelter magazines ("House Beautiful", "Country Living", "Traditional Home", etc.), browsing through furniture stores, and being aware of window displays, hotel lobbies, store and restaurant interiors -- Not to shop, but to "try out" a variety of colors and interiors. .

Answer 5

Get out the color charts and put them up againt your furniture to pick for the right shades. I suggest a good matching light green for the background color. It will make the room seem larger and green is a relaxing color and easy to live with for a long time.

Answer 6

Go chrome on the walls

Answer 7

Maybe a very muted Pompeii red.It really depends on the kind of visual pop you want.

Answer 8

Brown, in a light hue. Not beige, though.

Edit: Place some mirrors on the wall, also.

Answer 9

i think a cording your colour schem, you don't have much thought when you choose your furniture. i sugess that you paint your wall apple green, it would work nice with your sofa but much lighter.

Answer 10

Tan is a good color
