Su Casa: A Brave Color Combination Pays Off

August 22, 2007

For today's Su Casa, I wanted to show off a winning room from TeamSugar's Show Off Your Casa challenge. (Want to share your photos? Here's how to join Su Casa.)

Tylermarcum — who, judging from the photo, appears to be a big fan of CB2 — made a bold choice here putting this baby-blue couch against a mustard-colored wall. But the results are truly beautiful and not the slightest bit off-putting. Also, I love the light fixture!

Tyler, what is the exact color you chose for the walls? I just love the cool undertones and how you chose to use the baby blue for an accent instead of more bold colors. Also love the shelving and the picture frame to the right of the couch. Bravo!

I'm not crazy about it. It reminds me of something I've heard here quite often. Don't buy everything for a room from the same store (or that looks like it came from the same store).

Love it! Love the colors & all, everything looks great! As for the A/C not everyone has Central heat & air & I would rather be cool then the house look fab. Wonder what color they put on the ceiling? I hate white ceilings & in fact all mine are colored, I have a dark purple in the kitchen a bright blue in the living room & so on through out the entire trailor.

The coffee table is IKEA! One of the sides folds down for easy storage.

I once had a room that I kept in very dark, warm colors - it was a great room - everybody visiting liked to be in there.Very cosy.

This is the exact color of my livingroom!!!! After living in rentals my whole life and the color "antique white", I used very bold colors in my house......The diningroom and kitchen share walls of denim blue and deep terracotta. The masterbedroom is a light sable brown. The masterbath is a shade of rose found in every sunset and the main bath is a barn red. Our guestroom is patina. Everywhere I look I totally love love love the colors!!!!
