What color couches?

I have no furniture in my living room, even though we moved in 6 weeks ago. I have light gray curtain panels over white sheers. Wall color is a light blue-gray (BM Glass Slipper). LR/DR is a L-shaped and my DR table and china cabinet are oak. Floors are hardwood oak.

I want a couch and two upholstered chairs... but what color do I get? Darker gray? I originally wanted chocolate brown, but will that look weird with gray and blue? Solid color chairs or print?

I know I could go to Pinterest for ideas, but I trust you girls more Chat Icon Help?

I would do a taupe or light brown couch and chairs with a pattern... something with greens and blues and gray in it.

Personally, I'd do a darker gray or a dark blue. I agree with the patterned chairs, I think that would look amazing!

I agree. Tan is such a versatile color. You can bring in patterns with throw pillows that can be easily and inexpensively changed if desired (light colors for spring and summer, warm colors for fall and winter).

I would go with a navy couch - I think it would look great with the grey. I would do accents in yellows, aqua/teal and/or light greens

i would do a gray couch, and then i would go to home goods because i've seen alot of gray/yellow and gray/blue patterned chairs that were gorgeous. You could do alot with gray, especially if you go with a patterned chair

I am getting dark purple couches and I wish my walls were grey. I would go with a blue though, like a grey blue or grey and accent with mint.

What color couches?

I have light grey walls with a dark grey couch and love it. I never thought brown went with grey but recently I bought a bunch of throw pillows in all different shades, from white to light tan to dark brown and they look great against they grey.
