Sofas or couches are some of the most important home furniture we could have. They give us a spacious area to sit and gather and striking furniture to give your space some personality. So how do you create your own cosy living room while playing with your room’s design?
Grey is a neutral colour that, thankfully, goes well with many other hues and combinations. Whether you want a rich and luxurious space, a playful colour palette, or to stick with a monochromatic scheme, a grey carpet can help your sofa stand out.
Here are some sofa colours that go well with a grey carpet:
White
Let’s start with subtle hues that go well with the neutral grey carpet. White is also a neutral colour that adds a simple yet elegant touch to the space. A white couch will add some brightness to the grey carpet without overpowering it. If you have a small living room, a white sofa can also give it the illusion of additional space due to the visual clutter that it creates.
Black
A black sofa can create a formal, luxurious, and modern interior theme with the instant depth that it provides to a simple grey base. You may create a monochromatic combination of black, white, grey, and beige or play with a few accent colours to break up the formal feel of the black sofa.
Grey
You may also play with different shades of the same colour family for your sofa and carpet. This can give you an instant sense of balance and depth. If you have white walls, you will enjoy the combination of a light grey carpet and a darker grey sofa for a warm and inviting living room.
Pink
Many furniture shoppers may fear going for a more adventurous colour choice, but breaking out of the neutral scheme can surely take your interior design to the next level. A pink sofa creates an unforgettable centrepiece on top of a simple grey carpet, along with other living room furniture pieces that go well with your chosen style.
Red
A red sofa is often used to create a dramatic look in the living space. This bold couch colour pairs well with a grey carpet while creating a remarkable centrepiece to greet your guests. While red is a stunning colour to design with, make sure to use it sparingly with your living room furniture and accent decor to avoid overwhelming the whole room.
Blue
Create a calm and elegant atmosphere with a blue-coloured sofa. You can experiment with a range of charming, homey blue sofas or go with deep, sophisticated couches. To complete an elegant look, anchor your sofa with an elegant armchair or a cool-toned coffee table.
Green
Natural elements can instantly brighten up a neutral colour scheme. A green sofa offers an earthy, jewel tone that freshens up the whole living room. You can go for a velvety green sofa, a spacious green sectional sofa, or a casually upholstered couch for a refreshing interior design.
Yellow
Yellow adds a warm, summery feel to the space. If designed with a grey carpet, a yellow sofa can bring a refreshing contrast that highlights the neutrality and simplicity of the grey colour without visually crowding the living room. You can go from a retro living room theme with a sweet yellow sofa to a contemporary space with this remarkable couch colour.
Does the Wall Colour Matter?
The colour of your walls, including other living room furniture pieces in your space, also influences the colour and style of the sofa that fits your space, so make sure to include them when making a sofa buying decision. You may either highlight your sofa or let it blend with your living room design.
Conclusion
Buying a new sofa is both exciting and overwhelming. With all the gorgeous styles and colour choices, from fabric to leather sofas and other sophisticated varieties, you will never run out of exciting furniture pieces to choose from.
Adding some pops of colour to your grey rug boosts the energy of your space and makes your comfortable living room more inviting to stay in.
