hi, i was thinking of a grey but wasn't sure as I thought accent colours needed to be bright? i suppose the plummy pink of the curtains is fairly bright though. it's a big corner sofa that can take 12 cushions, so i thought 4 in curtain fabric, 4 in accent, then try to get a fabric that has the plum plus accent for the other 4. also have a big footstool to be covered in either (will be near rug so curtain colour may be too much). i will wait until curtains are up and in the meantime will explore olive green or grey fabrics. thanks for your advice, this is harder than i thought!

Originally I had decided on two fabric Chesterfield sofas but DH wasn't keen as price was an issue ...hence change to corner as its one we both liked . We prefer minimal contemporary look and finding a sofa online and in shops that we both preferred was hard work! Wish DH was like most hubbys and not get involved but he likes to be involved in decision making process!! :-/

This will be my backsplash

The floor is nice but the blue of the sofa will bring out the orange tones of the floor. I don't know if I'd go for something less warm. I filtered the same range under beige and there were a few nice ones but have just attached the one link. https://www.quick-step.co.uk/en-GB/laminate/impressive/im1854_soft-oak-light are you planning on taking the fire out given you've mentioned a tv unit? I'm not sure on the layout with the snuggler next to the sofa as it gives a waiting room feel, it feels cosier etc if a chair can be angled towards the sofa for conversation etc. That snuggler is also large and it may overwhelm the room with a dining table etc. Do you think you would open up the kitchen to dining at any point? Controversial but just thinking of swapping living and dining to keep the fire or moving the kitchen door if possible. Are there doors to the garden? I would also bear Ellie's advice in mind.
