Question:

Would this go together? couch & Rug?

I have a cream couch with thin stripes color stripes are tan, beige Brown... Would this rug go good infront of it?! I plan to get a palm plant to put at the end of the couch- its a 2 piece sectional really nice!!!But im into more natural nuetral colors... for our living room!

Answer:

You might get away with it if you bought some plain green throw pillows in the same shade of green, as well as this color in at least one more area such as, art work, a candle and dish set. You need to be able to blend the color scheme with out adding so many different colors and patterns. But I think it is highly likely that your stripped sofa would cause too much of a pattern change as well as too many colors for this room to use this rug. You pretty locked into a plain rug with your striped sofa. Maybe go with a nice plain chocolate brown or orange to make the floor and room have a pop of color with matching throw pillows , some art on the wall that picks up all of your neutral colors. However, you could bring a sofa pillow to the store to place it against the rug and check the two patterns against each other to see what you think. I hope this was of help to you. Enjoy decorating!
There would be too much of cream/beige color. Your carpet should be brighter green or burgundy or use an almost white carpet.
I don't really think it would go perfect. But it would look okay. You may want to add some throw pillows and things like that to make it go better with the colors of everything that you have already bought. Good luck :)
Your opinion is the only one that really matters. But I think it would look too busy...stripes + the print of the rug. Me? I'd go for a plain, solid rug in a color that picks up one of the stripes of your couch. Or a grass mat. (These are woven. They don't look like a lawn. lol )
