What color leather sofa for open living room/kitchen area?
Could really use some advice from people with good decorating sense. Our home is really rustic with exposed oak beams and tonge and groove cealings, wood walls (not paneling) and wood floors. The room for we are buying for is open so you would see my whole kichen, eating area and livingroom area when you walk in. We have already picked a really rustic oak table with antiqued black windsor chairs but when it comes to the color for the couches we are at a total loss. My husband is dead set agaist microfiber after a spill test at a furniture store last night and with 2 kids our better option is leather. With so much wood I’m hesitant to do brown but don’t know if black would make it look too much like an office. Any ideas are appreciated.
Should add that although I personally love the idea of red that the husband is dead set against it.
Look around, what colors do you usually go to while shopping. Do you have any pillows that you might use for this new sofa? If so then take the pillow/s with you to the store and that will help you chose.
Microfiber is a substitute for suede. It doesn’t breath well and doesn’t clean as well as people say or think. If you like a certain sofa, you can ask if they haven it available in a CRYPTON fabric…. or can buy a CRYPTON fabric and have it upholstered. Crypton comes in all colors and a wide array of textures. And believe me, everything will bead right off the fabric, it breaths, looks and feels great! Perfect for kids and pets.
BUT, If you have you heart set on leather, then maybe a neutral, a cream/beige, you can wipe it off anyway! And bring color through the accessories and pillows. Because if in 6 months or so you get sick of a color you can always change the pillows!!!!!
Hope this helps.
