I've got a challenging mix at the moment, especially as I dont want to change any of it... just moved in.
20s front room, high ceilings, polished wooden floorboards, square bay window, white woodwork.
Walls are a kind of eau de nil/pale green with a bluey feel. Love it.
Curtains are lustrous slub green, slightly acid shade, will try to add a pic. So could be a clash with the walls but I like it.
Dark wood Edwardian cabinet and dark brown clubman type armchair look good together imo. All fine.
Added a beautiful green and gold picture that is non negotiable.
I've imported an IKEA blue sofa. Now I've written that I feel the problem is that the blue is pulling the wall colour in a blue direction while the curtains pull it to green.
So I could see if I could do covers for the blue sofa, but I would like another sofa, unsure what colour though. I much prefer cloth sofas to leather, or id be looking st dark brown. I don't think dark brown cloth is right for that period though.
Well, the thread is helping me, anyway...
