We are thinking about making our family room mostly beige, the color is benjamin moore mohave dessert. With one accent wall of a dark teal , benjamin moore calypso blue. We are having trouble figuring out what color couch to put in the room. Do you have any suggestions? thanks

I don't know your design style preference, but a light gray, neutral sofa would work with the teal and blue desires. Well, the light gray will work with pretty much anything. :)

Really,..get the sofa you love that is classic and neutral, comfortable and quality. You can pick the wall color after the sofa/rug. It's a lot easier and less expensive to change the wall color than buy new furniture.

You should be very careful with beige as it can have one of several undertones. Unfortunately, some of these undertones clash. Unless you are very good at seeing the undertones, you could end up with a hot mess.

Beige also for the sofa if it sits in front of the teal wall with simple orange patterned throw pillows
