At Florida Leather Gallery, we know that it can be tough styling your living room, office, or den around your new leather sofa, which is why we have pulled together some helpful advice on how to design your color palettes based on a brown leather sofa. It is undeniable that a nice, supple, brown leather couch is a classic heirloom piece of furniture, and your color scheme should allow it to stand out as the centerpiece of whichever room it is in, not the other way around.
Here are some color palettes for complimenting a brown leather sofa.
Color Palettes for a Dark Brown Leather Sofa
For a dark brown leather sofa, your best bet is to keep the majority of your color scheme either a bright white or off-white, or completely opposite, with a dark, elegant black as the main palette color. The idea here is to let the rich, chocolatey tones of your dark brown leather sofa shine. If you go with the white, opt for bright and warm accent colors like sumptuous orange and rust, or lighter browns that bring out the lowlights in the grain of the sofa’s leather. If you choose to make your color palette mostly black, you’ll want to add touches of eggshell and cream so that the rest of the room is lightened up without sacrificing the centering of your dark, beautiful couch.
Color Palettes for a Light Brown Leather Sofa
If your leather couch is a lighter brown, like a saddle or camel color, you have a few more options available to you. You could use either light blue or deep marine blue to complement the warm caramel tones of the sofa’s leather grain. You could also explore a whole spectrum of grays, from a darker slate to a neutral office gray, to an almost-white snow gray. The brightness of these colors will help bring light to the umber in your light brown leather sofa, especially if your sofa is upholstered in a leather that’s almost a honey color. Especially as the sun sets, and natural light filters through your space, these colors will help complement the earthy tones of your light brown leather sofa, and bring a warm, rich vibe to your space.
