Any designer out there that can help?!

10 years ago
I don't know if I'm making this look boring, do you suggest any accent color for my new furniture? I realized that I'm buying furniture and accessories with "safe colors" but I would love to have the courage to play with colors and furniture a little bit more... Any suggestions?

    I like what you have gone with. Neutral is good. You can add the color with the accessories & art.

    I love your room just as is. The only thing I might suggest is a floor lamp so you have lighting other than your overhead fixture. May I ask where you got your dining chairs?

    Thank you so much for your input! I feel much better now :) we still need to buy lamps, side tables and curtains for this room, that by the way, I purchased my dining chairs at One Kings Lane
    I love how they look!

    It's all looking great - and you can add a little more of the soft bleachy-blue in seat cushions. Greenery will add the layering of color that makes it interesting.

    It already looks great but if you want little bits of color is do a bit of orange or red. Not both. Maybe a small pillow?

    Orange is what l was thinking too...maybe some orange in some pillows and in your banquet bench covers.

    I immediately thought a pop of orange would look great.

    I agree, a pop of orange would look great!

    It's lovely. Different shades of blue is more interesting too. Navy with the light blue, etc. Tangerine/orange would look nice with the blue and if you want a hint of a third color a bright green would look fun as well.

    Here is a sample photo of the light blue with the orange. I'd still like to see a hint of a bright, pretty green too.

    Wow thank you! I will definitely try adding those colors on accessories and see how they look! I was also thinking maybe adding 2 small stool/ottoman in front of the coffee table?

    If you're hesitant to settle on a particular color, you can always conduct a temporary test run by buying fresh flowers in the colors you're considering.

    I think this interesting twist stool would look great next to one of your arm chairs. Regarding the 2 small stool/ottomans for the coffee table...is it for children to sit or extra seating for guests? I'm thinking it's a bit narrow there but it may work.

    You could also use some additional lighting. How about this tripod floor lamp between the sofa and chair, left of the window?

    I think you should swap out the rug. If you want ottomans, I suggest fabric upholstered hourglass shaped ones.

    You can try existing rug in the dining area.

    Love the potted standard olive tree in the second to last pic above, that would look good some greenery
