Browse Forums Interior Decorating Lounge Re: What colour furniture with floorboards?? 3Jul 15, 2009 1:24 pm Wow! That's a lovely floor. It's so warm that I'd stay away from both really warm or really cool colours - no blues or bright reds (I'm thinking of couch colours here). Darker greens would be nice I think, from eucalyptus leaf to sage. You could do any kind of brown or neutrals except cream. Black or white. Then again, I'm not known for my taste in these things Re: What colour furniture with floorboards?? 4Jul 15, 2009 1:48 pm ooooooooohhhhhhhhhhh nice floors and kitchen is that a chocolate splashback I see what colour is that on the back of the island..... I reckon a lounge in that colour would be really nice and would also go with the chocolate and white dining thing....kind of a taupe colour. The floor is beautiful by itself and has a lot of colour in it, so if it were me, I would keep the rest neutral, taupes, whites, chocolates...no black. Re: What colour furniture with floorboards?? 5Jul 15, 2009 2:49 pm Thanks guys!! I was also thinking that the couch should match the colour of the back of the island, which is a taupe/grey colour. Sorry SUH, the splashback is actually a charcoal colour!!

But I just wanted to say what a gorgeous house that is. I love the dropped ceiling over the kitchen, really makes a feature of it. Did you build or buy it established?

Re: What colour furniture with floorboards?? 12Jul 17, 2009 12:29 am Well, you have SuH's advice there and it's spot on (but then again you expect it from her after seeing her gorgeous house) but just wanted to say lovely house! beautiful kitchen and nice floors! You must be so happy with it!
