do you think those would go together?

Answer 1

Very nice !

Answer 2

Personally, I think they go well together. If you want me to get technical as to why this is so...

The furniture you're looking at (at least what I can tell from the picture) has a reddish quality. Being that red is complementary to green--and complementary colors tend to draw the eye and look good together-- yes, it looks good together.

Clicketyclack is right, though, you do need a bridge color for sure. In my opinion, I'd choose a peachy or coral color, it would bring out the red in the furniture without being a bright, saturated red.

My advice #1 bit of advice, however, is get what you like. It's your room and you'll be spending a lot of time in it, waking up in it, looking at it. If YOU like it, that's what counts.

Answer 3

I think it would look fabulous!!

But the key to using a rich dark color of furniture with much lighter walls is to use a bridge color of medium green or a coordinating pattern in pillows or bedding that brings the dark and light colors together. Like a medium blue, purple, rose, or peach could be a visual bridge that would make the dark furniture and the light walls work well together.  

Have fun decorating your room!! : )

It will look great trust me!!! I have the same colors in my room and love them:) You have great taste lol:)

I have a dark dresser and wardrobe, and a dark green couch and, Then I have more of a brighter lime green in my room and it looks very cute together I think a wood floor that's the color of the furiture your wanting  more dark brown/cherry would be so cute!!!

Just make sure it's what you want:) You have to wake up to it every day!!!
