If you have a tan couch...

If you have a tan couch...

What color are your walls?

I was planning on doing red walls in adjacent dining room. Will tan walls look too tan with the couch?

I also thought a sage green would look nice with a tan couch, but how would that look with the dining room red...Grrrr....

OR should I do the LR in red, and do the dining room in tan/gold with red accents?

Here are some pics of the house with the sellers stuff in it, not mine!

Re: If you have a tan couch...

Our living room / dining room is one room big room and I have sage colored walls with tan couches. Red is my accent color throughout both rooms - pillows, tableclothes, part of rug. I think any of your options will work. I just think if you go with tan walls / tan couches, make sure there is enough of a contrast in the colors between the walls and couch.

Re: If you have a tan couch...

I like the green!

I dont have a pic with the couch there (yet), but we have tan walls with a red accent wall

the couch is a tan sectional, so part of the sofa is on the tan wall, the other on the red.

I love the green but we had green couches and painted our walls a light yellow and mustard.

I love your house! When are you moving in?

We were supposed to close today,and its not happening Chat Icon The sellers are ready to go, but the people they are buying from are delaying it. Apparently they are "bakers" and this is their busy season so they want to do it after Easter. So we have tentative closing dates of 4/11, 4/12, or 4/13. If we do actually close then, we are going to try to paint, rip up 2 rugs in the kids rooms and move in by the end of April. Keep your fingers crossed! Chat Icon

Re: If you have a tan couch...

i think tan couch with tan walls would be too much brown and the couch would get "lost"

i think sage would be beautiful--- and sage with a red DR should be okay---

we have a sage-ish couch with burgundy chair covers on the chairs of our eat-in-kitchen and it looks good i think... not christmas-y at all...

here's a pic of a tan couch with sage walls from RH:
