Interior decorating - can black, brown, and white theme work in the living room?

circlesandcirclesrug.jpgBrown is a very big color these days.  Chocolate brown has been paired with blue and pink for new and interesting children's rooms.  By far the most popular couch color is now chocolate brown, and it's much more likely that an individual will purchase a chocolate brown leather couch than any other color of leather. 

If you find yourself with a room that you cannot paint, such a rental with stark white walls and all of your accent colors are black, there are ways to incorporate your favored brown color scheme into your room.

Geometric patterns are a fantastic way to pull the eye to the various colors in the room and make them work together.  The Circles and Circles Area Rug has a light background with darker contrast circles.  It's eye-catching, and can certainly work with your brown couch and black/white wall accents.

For a more dramatic focal point, the Mystique warm brown area rug pulls colors of dark brown, cream, and black for a tranquil and beautiful accent to your room.

Accessories can really pull a room together.  Look for black wall shelves, candle holders, and a collection of black frames.  Black frames on white walls are striking, so be sure to place them in a collage for maximum effect.

Black, white, and brown are striking earth tones that, when put together, can provide an overall feeling of tranquility and 'earthiness' to your room.
