NEUTRALITY! Always a good place..............


The ground is crisp white cotton and the floral is marked with palest gold, deep charcoal, medium gray.  The stripe is a lush cut velvet in deep gray, taupe on a pale gold ground.  The stunning plaid/herringbone cotton weave is grounded in white linen woven with palest gold herringbone pattern with larger all over simmering gold metallic checks. Lastly the solid textural woven cotton gray nubby needle point.  What to do?  Oh that is easy.  This ensemble would make a striking family room.  Sofas in a very durable soft cotton chenille solid pale gold.  The textured plaid for the comfy chairs.  The ottoman in the solid needlepoint, tufted with nailheads!  Combine the velvet stripe and floral pillows with thick soft brush fringe, oh please do!  For the adventurous, the floral on the windows!  Or for a more transitional look do the windows in a natural wood shade.  Set yourself up with some end tables in a soft black finish,  some white porcelain lamps with linen shades, some soft gold woven baskets for storage.  This is divine neutrality at its best.  
Go ahead an throw in a ginormous plasma TV and DONE.
