Question:

Hep-I want to put an area rug between my sofas in den-wood floors whitewalls, bookcases-sofas leather paprika?

colour-not quiter pink-not orange-2 choices I have seen- background medium to lighter green rug with same paprika colour it-abstact pattern or background almost same as sofas with some light green and light blue--is it better to have mor colour that matches sofas or introduce new coulor and pop the sofa colour in it? Help please? Thanks so much!

Answer:

For the rug not to stand out to much you need just a little color that matches the couch or walls or what ever else you have in the room if you can't match then use earth tones. Also make sure you pick a color that is easy to keep clean. Never get to much of the same color in a room.
find colors that compliment the coloring in your furniture as well as add color to the white walls.. go to a store and get some color swatches.. or looka t area rugs an picture your living room in your mind and go through the differnat choices and see what appeals to you... this is very easy..
Hi there, I am a professional interior designer for almost 20 years. Absolutely find a rug that has mostly contrasting colors. Green is a great choice because it is the complimentary color of red which is in the same family as paprika. The best shade of green to use is moss or a more muted green. Try to stay away from anything that has too bright of a green shade it may compete too much with the paprika sofa. It would be great to find something that has paprika and maybe ivory or white accents. This will pull all the colors together. Try adding some very textural white or ivory pillows to the sofa to soften the texture of leather. This will make the white walls appear intentional. Also, try to find some artwork that incorporates the green and paprika; this is where you can bring in another splash of color maybe blue or gold. Last but not least an awesome touch for a room such as this will be to find some large paprika color pots a few different sizes and add some indoor plants (silk is fine if you can find some realistic versions). If you combine all these elements guaranteed you will have a really great space to enjoy! Good luck and have fun!!!
