Advice on how to keep brown leather sofa contemporary
Comments (25)Hi. What colour are your ŵalls re the curtains? I do agree with others that I find a shade of blue works best with brown although clearly many colours do. A dusky pink is also very nice (has to be the right shade though!) if you were to mix it with lighter Browns and soft whites. How contemporary is the rest of the house? Putting down a cowhide rug for example would immediately make it look contemporary. If you went with a rug in shades of browns with some white it would also create a slight contrast between floor and sofa. The sofa looks quite contemporary anyway so would think more about the accessories....See MoreInstalling a non-IKEA farmhouse sink into IKEA base cabinets
Comments (5)Thanks Victoria. That's just what we're after and almost perfect... except it's 10cm too wide. I'm just not sure if there is any way round that, e.g. widening the cabinet frame with an extra slat of wood at the sides.... the doors will be made to measure so could cover all that, but I'm not sure how the hinges would work and I'd prefer it if they were functional......See MorePink sofa need advice
Comments (3)Hi albricci, You can really transform a sofa by introducing different accent colours and patterns through decorative cushions. Your pinkish-purple sofa will work perfectly with pops of fresh greens and soft blues. Echo these colours within other accessories around the space such as groups of glass vases and ornaments to create a cohesive flow. If you are open to painting your wooden desk area and wall panelling, you could try a contemporary grey tone such as Dulux Night Jewels 4 in a durable Eggshell finish (being sure to sand and prime the surface before painting). For the wall colours you could retain a fresh crisp Absolute White or a blush tone such as Dulux Soft Montelimar 4. Although quite a typically feminine colour, the grey tones will balance this and offer a warm and inviting scheme. http://www.johnlewis.com http://www.johnlewis.com http://www.johnlewis.com http://www.johnlewis.com http://www.dunelm.com http://www.grahamandgreen.co.uk Let me know how you get on!

Comments (15)Hey! I love my corner sofa!!! ;-) It's perfect for curling up in a corner and lounging on. And when we have people over, we often sit at the dining table. But I have to say that I also love two sofas or a sofa and a couple of chairs. I think you have enough space to move your furniture away from the wall. And if you go for a corner sofa, I would get the smaller Zinc one. Maybe in a different colour, because I'm afraid the mocha colour will be difficult to combine with other colours and you could end up with a beige brown living room? Because you say you like minimalist, Scandi style decor. What do you think of the charcoal or the teal? Is it a weird idea to switch the dining and the living area? Depending on how often you use the fireplace....See MoreRob Charie
