advice for finishing off livingroom

last year

I just got PBarn furniture for our great room. It’s all neutrals now but one opinion stated is it needs color. I am torn. All neutral does look nice - but a bit blah but can enough color be provided by lamps, and a couple accent pieces? Aside from needing new tall lamps, what do you see might be needed? Our sales person suggested PBarn simple bronze lamps- those with an open hole. I feel it’s going over board with the dark bronze metal in the room. I really wanted to do some blues for my husband( he wanted blue chairs not dark gray I picked) . I love greenery- fake tree & maybe another shorter plant in a stand with legs? Or leaf green lumbar chair pillow & dark blue pillows on couch ?? I want to keep some wood too- Console against wall painted white has pretty oak top. Thinking a wood bowl on coffee table to hold the controllers? Maybe a wood framed circular mirror ?? Thanks for any suggestions!

Please ignore poll photos above. One more photo here and advice for repainting the adjacent sun room ( SW) changing the yellow. Something to blend or compliment the living room

The weight of the sofa calls for heftier sofa table lamps - introduce color ther. Pick up on the new lamp colors with sofa pillow and throws with some pattern. A colorful tray on the with coffee table would help. Please find a new home for the solid brown and navy pillows - too drab and definitely not friendly to each other or your neutral furnishings

I can't get the pictures but if click on this link for pottery barn you will see how they still both a neutral room and one with blue. In my opinion you need lots of textures to pull off a neutral room. Look at the lamps in both pictures.

FYI: I do not work for or have any relationship to Pottery Barn just wanted to show what their designer should have shown you. I would also not buy everything from one store
