Living Room Paint Color Advice?

I will eventually be getting a suede colored recliner and couch. I have a green recliner in the living room. Right now the walls are a tan color. I want to brighten up the room. Do you think a red color would match? Please offer suggestions. Thank you!

Sherriefults,

It would be helpful to know what color the couch will be---you only mentioned that it would be suede (colored). To my knowledge, suede is one type of "fabric" made of a cowhide...not a color. Suede can be dyed almost any color.

I'm guessing you mean sort-of a brownish color?

Sherriefults is right. Suede can be most any color. However, suede is not a 'type of fabric', It is a material.

Your reds and greens may give a Christmas 'feel'.

If the sofa set you are getting is brown and the recliner is green, I'm thinking a lighter shade of the recliner green, not necessarily pastel but two to three shades lighter.

I do not think red will brighten the room; I suspect it will overpower it. Go with a lighter off-white, for instance. Greens are tricky to match, and look odd if they are not well co-ordinated, so I would not use green on the walls with a green accent chair.

You can add colour and punch to the room with throws, pillows, and artwork.
