What color carpet? Would these work together. Furniture has yet to be delivered. But would also like to order an area rug. Can some help with color scheme?

    But, have you purchased the sectional? If not, I say no to the brown...too dark. Try a butterscotch toned leather. Add a tribal rug.

    I like more contemporary / modern. Do these work even though the 1st one looks more so grey?

    Select a carpet that looks smashing and does have some, not a lot, but some brown in it. Then select a color you love in the rug and do a very light version of the color on the ceiling. Then select some other colors from the rug for throw pillows, find some art that matches and some metal lamps like brushed stainless, gold, brass, glass, or wrought iron with a drum shade in linen, burlap, etc. and you are decorated. Curtains can be a pretty cream linen or natural burlap, see Target, on a oil rubbed bronze or black curtain rod. Add family pictures and you are set! Something like this? for a cozy look! Don't forget the solid ottoman in a lighter color. See houw the painted ceiling brightens the room.

    I too feel you need to have some brown in there, though not a totally
    brown rug. Do you want me to pull down the other rugs and what colors
    are you interested in, at this point the brown is almost neutral

    The sofa looks fine! Remove the console and put two smallend tables on either side of sofa with simple floor lamps with drum shades behind the tables. Add linen cream floor to ceiling curtains with 12 inches over lap on each side of windowand use double panels on each side of window.

    Turn your rug the other way so it has the long side under the front seating part of the sofa. Place your console under the window to the left in the picture. Keep the lamp on it for ambient lighting and place it closest to the front of the picture.

    Find a chair in a solid color taken from cool picture over the console and place it at the end of the sofa facing the chaise on a 45 degree angle.

    Find a small glass and wood round cocktail table.


    A possibility only. Might be too heavy looking for room size.

    You can always paint or wash the ceiling with white paint, it will lighten up the room considerable without taking away from the overall wood theme.
