Timber Framers Guild Forums General Off Topic What colour would go good with retro WOODEN livin

Hi,
I was just given a free living room set but its retro early 80s wooden framed furniture with brown pillows. I'm going to create new slipcovers for the cushions, but what colour goes with a medium-dark brown wood?

Hi,
this is bound to put a damper on things.

Well I would like to recommend “Maroon” even though it is a little dark but it goes well with the med brown wood. I just like the look of maroon on wood.

If I had a situation like this I would choose beige colour for the slip colours, it will be matching and nice looking.

Some light colors will be awesome for getting contrast combination!!!

I prefer pearl white, white colour matches all the colours and it will give a luxurious look to your room.
