Help me decorate around this sofa?

My partner and I are moving in together and his sofa is much better/nicer than mine. However it is Brown Leather.

Any ideas on colours, styles that will look nice with it?

I like navy blue or a rose pink but can't really envisage it.

I like the one papered wall look although I know most people don't.

natures colours, so I had a wood floor, white walls and white sheers with a green leafy pattern in them. I really hated OH`s brown leather suite but with two dogs and two children it was practical at the time. Green does go well with brown, not many colours do.

We have a dog and 3 children moving in with us too so white walls probably would need painting every 5 minutes. I like the thought of nature colours and love green although OH doesn't.

I think brown leather goes with most things. I agree with nature colours - look at stone colours, heather, sage greens.

Or you can go for the navy shades you love with ivory, red etc.

Basically decide if you’re going for bold or soft and stick with it.

Following with interest, I need to style a maroon leather sofa.

WhereForArtThouBray · 14/06/2019 19:03

I like navy, copper, off white with accents of pink I think?

Or white with cream throws and rugs and some lovely plants?

White walls painted with a paint I could clean I should have said. Am always wiping down the bits by the doors.

That makes more sense. Wipe able pain it a thing of beauty!

We had a brown leather sofa with very pale pinky beige walls. It actually looked really good. Can't remember the name of the colour right now, but it was a Dulux one that they still do. It was a surprising outcome because the paint was far pinker than we expected (it was possibly mellow mocha?), but it looked great.
