We have espresso leather sofas from Pottery Barn. what color should we paint the walls?

Question

We have navy and gold window treatments that are way too expensive to change . We have cathedral ceilings. Any recommendations on paint colors. Something to bring in a little light but blend the dark sofas/tables and gold/navy drapes.
thanks!

Answer 1

"Mannered Gold" by Sherwin Williams. It will work well with the gold/navy drapes, and the dark brown furniture will look fab up against it. Check it out:

Answer 4

With so much wall space, you may want to go with a neutral wall color, but something with a warm undertone.
Not that you have to pick from these colors, but mentioning Pottery Barn, this may help narrow down your options:

Coastal Fog seems nice, or a lighter shade of Quincy Tan.
Any other colors you'd like to bring into the room, don't forget about accessories, pillows, chairs, wall decor, and an area rug. The walls are your base background.

Answer 5

I would try a dynamic pattern. Maybe going with a diagonal striped blue/gold sequence. Maybe 18 inch stripes or narrower blue stripes to go with the curtains. Concentrate on matching the curtians to the wall colors. The Espresso is a good choice for most colors. If you want it lighter ... go with more gold color and thinner blue stripes. It's easy using painters tape. If you plan to sell go with a more neutral color that isn't so dramatic.

Answer 6

1] paint the walls ivory, or pale gold.
2] repeat the color in throw pillows for sofa and chairs, quilt or afghan, and small accessories.
3] add art work with gold, brown, and a bit of navy in it.
4] use gold [ brass ] for mirror across from window, lamps,
and other metal accessories.

If you are planning to start on your woodworking project, this isn't something you should use, it's something that you would be insane not to. Go here https://tr.im/wbDX7
Truth is, I've been a carpenter for almost 36 years, and I haven't found anything like this for less than 10's of thousands of dollars.

Answer 8

hmm i would have said a cream color like a little darker than of white but i really like the idea of the ice blue i wouldnt stray from shades u already have it may be too much stick to brown and tan tones and blues

Answer 9

A nice warm gold tone. Not a mustard, but a rich, creamy shade. I think gold looks beautiful with dark furniture and would compliment your curtains.

Answer 10

Deep cream color or gold.
