Gender Neutral
Decorating with a neutral palette keeps men and women happy. Textured pieces, such as a leather pouf and faux fur pillow, add charm while the color scheme creates a space that's livable for the whole clan.

Into the Woods
The rattan shades, coordinating beige upholstery, and natural wood furniture work together to create a cozy, warm den. The floral pillows, paired with the plants (real and fake), add pops of colors and a touch of zen.

Not Just Nude
Punch up a basic white sectional with bright patterned pillows. Despite the classic blue and yellow color combo, the overall look stays safely within the neutral zone.

Warm Cocoa
Neutral is anything but boring when you choose deep hues of brown and green to add richness to the room. Textures from the rug, chair, and pillows give personality to a space dominated by earth tones.
