Today I am sharing what made me choose our grey and navy living room color scheme for our furniture and why I love it so much. Getting your living room design right is of utmost importance if you want to be able to enjoy and relax in this much-used space.
I think for some people personal favorite colors play a role in your choice or perhaps trendy design options help you decide. While that didn’t happen, I never gave up on buying navy upholstered furniture for my living room. Navy is less harsh than black but still a dark color that really pops with off-white walls. With a grey and navy living room furniture combination, I can breathe knowing that I won’t have to wash slipcovers all the time with all the fingerprints and spilled juice that may get on them!
The beauty of the interior design is that your can pick and choose items that make YOU happy. In our home, we are starting with all off-white walls, but I have told Chris if we ever convert a room into a study I would love to go dark! Nacy blue walls are a beautiful way to bring a dark colour into your home without it being overly harsh.
Think throw pillow, blankets, ottomans, trays, wall art, mirrors, rugs, and so many other ways. Since we chose a navy blue island I wanted to carry that color over into our living room. 🙂 Navy is a great color to bring into a large or small living room because of the big impact it can make.
We chose the grey slipcovered deep seat York Sofa from Pottery Barn and 2 of their Hart Upholstered Armchairs in a navy basketweave fabric. To add a punch of color, I went to Ballards and chose 2 ottomans with lime green incorporated with navy.
Pillows, rugs, throws, and ottomans are great pieces to experiment with colors.
Gold is a beautiful way to add a touch of elegance to living rooms. From modern furniture selections to more traditional picks, navy and grey together will never be out of style. Thanks so much for taking the time to read, I can’t wait to update this post with our living room pics when we are finally in our new house.
