Hi, I have a montez leather sofa http://kasala.com/products/montez-leather-sofa It is the charcoal color - but sort of looks like a really rich dark grayish brown. And I have a matson coffee table found here: http://www.plummers.com/living/accenttables/matson-i-coffee-table/3626 These two look really nice on carpet floors, which is when I had purchased these. Now, I have a new place, and planning to put hardwood floors, and really confused about what would look good even with an area rug added. The coffee table has really rich wood like grains, and I'm not able to wrap my head around what would be a nice color. I tend to really like dark walnut shades with mild distress, and enough grain variations that damages are not visible. This particular one looks really elegant in person. http://www.ernesthemingwayfloors.com/trail-creek-buckskin-floor.php It doesn't look very rustic, and the distress on the hardwood is visual, and the floor itself is very smooth (very mild distress). Any suggestions on the floor color selection would be really helpful!! Thanks, Srikar

I'd go with either another neutral (gray, cream, etc) or a rustic look that wouldn't compete with the floor but would harmonize with it... (You don't show your TV, but be sure to get something significantly wider, for balance, if possible.)

Hello April, It's an old wood floor and each slab of wood accepts the stains differently so getting exact match is very difficult. Sanding, staining and repolishing the existing flooring to match the new floor is a likely solution to your dilemma. Its a messy and time taking procedure though. Easier way out would be to check with original vendor if he still sells the same variety. Or request them to visit with some other matching samples. Thanks, Nitin CORNERSTONE DESIGNS Bangalore.

Hi Sonia, the flooring does look good. For the walls, apart from off white, you could also go in for grey, the cool undertones. That will really enhance the overall look of the room and the beautiful flooring. Even darker shades of grey or olive green would enhance the look, if you are comfortable with slightly darker palette.
