red couches/furniture!

My friend Sierra just moved into an apartment & she has a red couch. I looked up some some photos to see what wall colors compliment red couches. Some of the photos don't have red couches in them, but rather red chairs, red bedding, etc. Some of the photos aren't all that pretty haha, so just pay attention to the wall color & the red piece of furniture.

I think that dark gray {picture #33 & #19}, light gray, beige {picture #6 & #25}, tan {picture #30}, and if you are feeling a little daring.. light blue & turquoise! {pictures #27, #28, #10} For a more peacock blue, #3 is really nice looking too with the red couch.

I also think that with the wall color dark gray or light gray, sleek decor would look really good {pictures #1 & #14}. I love the picture with the black & white stripe rug {picture #21} I also think that it would look really cool to incorporate turquoise or light blue to give it that beachy look as well... especially since you live next to the beach! =) {pictures 11 & 12} White frames hung on the wall would really pop. You could paint the walls beige or tan {if they aren't already} and you could make it feel more homey. Gray paint is modern but still can be cozy depending on the shade & your decor.

I also added some photos with just white walls just so you could see pops of red here & there.
If you do want something homey & cozy painting the walls a chocolate brown would look really cool too! You could still incorporate light blue & turquoise {if you like those colors! haha}

If you only like one thing out of a picture, save it under "love the photos on the wall" & save it to your computer. You may take it a little of something in one picture & a little something else in another picture. I also have dark gray, light gray, light blue, and turquoise examples in my house! lol Have fun!!
