Den- Help with color couch!

6 years ago
last modified: 6 years ago

Hello,

We are finally looking to buy a couch for our den. We currently have the Arhaus Athena Bookcase and desk in black. And now we are looking to add the Wessex sofa. The colors we are considering are Bronco Iron, Bronco Bison, and Bronco Bison. What do you think I need to consider in making this decision? The decor in other rooms in my house are more in the gray family but in the den we chose black for the desk and bookcase. And now that we want to add the couch, stuck on what make sense for the room and the flow of the house.


Thanks so much!


Below are the different couch colors in the poll:

    it's difficult to tell without seeing the room pics (very important) and the pics of each sofa option. I did go to your links. Here are the pics from the links so others don't have to go back and forth to see them.

    Make corrections if the pics aren't what you intended.

    Thank you, Denita! So kind of you! Attached is one current pic so you can see the floor coloring. The walls are a sage green right now (will change). and the curtains as well can go. Ignore all other furniture shown.

    The others will want to see more pics of the room. Can you post one of each wall?

    I like the color of your floors.

    I'd go for one of the browns.

    I would personally rethink the couch unless it is available in a smaller size. It's lovely, but it looks a little too large for the space available in the room picture you show. I mention that because the desk also looks very large.

    Have you graphed out the space on paper with the furniture or taped it out in the room to see if it fits properly? What are the room dimensions?

    I'd pick the second swatch shown. I think it's saddle.

    Thanks rrah. Yes, it does fit with roombut I am also contemplating smaller version 90 inch versus 106. Thanks for the color advice!

    IMO there are 100s of colors of leather but I honestly think in the US there is only brown or black for choice. I have sold and owned leather my whole lifa and not once have had a brown piece. I also think tufted sofas look best in none distressed leather

    Agree that 90 inch would work better in the room. rrah is spot on about graphing out the furniture on paper before you buy. I have a sofa that is 108 inches and it is definitely a limiting factor in smaller rooms.

    We are thinking about the Wessex couch. Is it comfortable?

  • 5 years ago

    Yes we love it!

    Bronco whiskey would be GORGEOUS. not only is the color amazingly popular, its just the pop of contrast you need against all the black/dark finishes to elevate the room, and very elegant. good luck!
