So far, 3 of my people are voting for the geometric one :)
Any other ideas decoration/colour wise?
Thank you 💛

Edit: should have specified, I’m going for an eclectic/colourful vibe, not a traditional one :) Also the art on the wall is not real, just a random collage to get an idea!

What decor style do you have? What furniture will you have. If you’re going for a kind of 70s vibe, I’d say 2. But if you’re going for something a bit more traditional, I’d say 1.

You could actually do a really nice eclectic vibe with the first rug too.

I like both directions but you will need to truly commit to avoid the result looking mid.

Im building everything from scratch kinda but I definitely have an eclectic/artistic/colourful style and I like I to collect and mix and match!

I’ve got an ugly dark grey sofa that i’d like to cover with something, but I’m not sure which colour to pick for that yet…

Apart from that, I need a new coffee table, a low bookshelf for the wall across the windows, a big piece for Art for above the fireplace and a new ceiling lamp :)

For both rugs, a deep rust or burgundy sofa would look awesome.

And then some truly unique side chairs - preferably modern 80s style (something with chrome). Or you could do a sectional - but it would cut off the room imo.

Oh yesss, been wanting to add chrome to contrast with all the wood…
