My living room is dark brown colours, I painted the walls cream and used duck-egg blue cushions to top it off. The colour scheme is very nice and becoming very popular.

I think that you should paint the room like a light brown or tan because this color goes really well with dark brown colors.

If you’re going for dark furniture, etc, go for light walls. Brown goes with so much – cream, beige, duck-egg blue. Perhaps when you have things in situ you could try some colour testers on the walls and see what you like?

If you really want a rich elegant look then I would paint the room or at least 1-2 walls a rich burgundy /maroon and the others a brown or tan that doesn’t clash with the color of the furniture’s wood.

Ooohhh very nice..love this idea..
anyway..I like a deep tuscan yellow something like a nicotine yellow (brownish, goldish kind of colour). I would accent with off white ceiling, trim, doors, recessed lighting, one great black iron ceiling fixture, one great tiffany desk lamp with deep red accents.
