Which is better?

I don't know who I'm driving more nutty -- myself or my husband. I've made him move furniture a dozen times today to see which area rug I like better with the new livingroom. He likes one better, and I like the other better. I think the one I like better doesn't photograph as well as hubby's :p

So, I'll see what PT says.

I tried to take pictures from the same point of view, but only have models in the one shot ;)

Oh, and the green chair will be going bye-bye on thrusday when we get a new godlish-tan chair thursday

Edited photos both taken this morning with the same light and showing hte whole sofa. :)

Black :)

I like the beige one better with the dark couch. But I'm only seeing pictures. So I'll say I like the one you like better. :p ;)

I like them both! But I do like the black a little better, mainly because the beige just seems to blend in with everything.

I like the black better, as it has both black and beige, and so ties together the dark couch and the beige trim.

I like the black better.

Beige is a good choice.

I vote black!

Black.

I'd like to see the RED one, please.

:D

I prefer the black one because you also have the black couch and it stands out better than the tan one too.:)

Maybe you should wait and post another photo on Thurs. after you get the new gold/tan chair.;)

I think the darker one; it works well with the couch.

Ok, as a designer, I'll point out some things

The sofa is chocolate leather. The tan looks better in person because it has a TON of texture, which the livingroom sorely needs thanks to the smooth finish of the leather.

The livingroom is dark. The lighting at night is iffy at best, we have the chocolate sofa and dark harwood floor (which of coarse is cropped out so you wouldn't know that)

Look at the decorative painting on the front of the coffee table, which rug flows with the flowers and leaves better?

The black rug's pattern looks best with the runner going down the steps. I HATE the tan near the step's runner.

Lastly, the diningroom gets whatever rug is left. The black looks AWESOME under the table. The table has a black top, with dark wood base. The chairs are two black, and two wooden. I have a photo but no time to edit and upload it since Trixie is due at the vet in 5 mintues for her spay :eek:

Now..... is black still the reigning king? ;)

What's that gray thingy on the left? I think that's throwing off the color scheme. I like them both, but not the gray thingy, lol.

The new chair color will be so much more complimentary to the boys' fur color.

Thats going to become the lounger in the office. I'm SO excited for my new chair to come in tomorrow. Actually, it's hubby's new recliner. :)
