when we bought a couch just after moving into our place, we went for a beigey/stone colour because we thought white would get too dirty. i'm glad we didn't go white, but so many images from all the beautiful blogs out there have white couches which prevents the room from looking stale and not light and bright. so when i came across this image of a not white couch that still had a beautiful lightness and airiness to it, i was quite excited. what allows this room to still come across as bright is of course the natural light, but this is combined with a lot of white - white walls, floor, rug, curtains and some pillows. apart from the couch, the furniture does not have a heavy aesthetic and there is nature in the image! how have you kept your room light and bright with a couch that is not white?
