I think that everything is just clashing. If you want to keep the rug and the transitional look is what you are trying to achieve, get rid of the traditional blinds, coffee table, end tables, and chair in the corner. The fake plant on the top of the built needs to go and paint the built ins white. If you want to keep all of that the way it is now (Except the fake plant. Sorry but they are so awful!), then switch out the rug for a more traditional rug. A rug featuring both red and green will help tie the blinds and walls together.

This is a wool hand knotted rug that will help tie in the red and green

It is not too traditional and its not too modern but right in the middle.
