It could be fun to do a pattern like stripes on the wall! Or to keep it simple I would do a nice blue tone and mount photos in brown or black frames along the wall. You can add more drastic colors with your pillow choices!

Add a thin striped gold wallpaper - diamond cut- with white background, change the pillows maybe perhaps the same color as the wallpaper then hang some artsy frames on the wall, your choice.

Do you lean more towards bright or soft colors? Also, traditional or contemporary? I love yellow or red with a black and brown sofa.
