How to decorate lounge.

Hi everyone, looking for any tips/ inspiration for my lounge. We moved into a new build just over a year ago and have just had the few shrinkage cracks filled in buy the home builder, which means it is time to start decorating.

I had originally bought some wall paper for the lounge, but have decided to put it in the bedroom as it is too busy. The lounge is an ok size, has two small windows, built in fireplace with the tv wall mounted above it and at one end of the lounge I have two ikea expedit shelves (birch colour) full of books.

The sofas we have are both grey but don't match. I will coordinate those with cushions that match/ contrast the walls.

The carpet is also grey.

So oh wise ladies of mn, what would you do?

Any pics you can share?

I'm similarly stuck with our lounge, though I do have a colour scheme in mind (Dulux Muddy Puddle paint. Purely because I love the name). I always think the best thing to do is find one item you really, really love (like a fabric or cushion or rug) and take your colour scheme from there.

I always liked yellow with grey, FWIW.
