Love the colours, but I think a window treatment and some colourful accents would work wonders. Also the plants, get something a little tall to put in corner(s). And I'm wondering if you might not be able to use the chaise longue in another room, and put a bookshelf in its place along that wall. On the last picture the room almost seems a bit crowded with big couches, and a shelf could also hold some decorative things like coloured glass vases/bottles, or maybe you have some ornamental pieces from africa you might want to show off?<br/><br/>But yeah, definitely think about window treatment (sheer swag and maybe colour accents), and some accents in colour as well in the way of pillows, afghans, pictures, flowers or ornamental pieces. Not much, just a touch here and there :-) Yup, I agree with the above. Love the colours, but I think a window treatment and some colourful accents would work wonders.

I second what anygma said about cushions. I'd get a couple the same color as your red chair to puton the couch, as well as a few other little red accents to scatter about the room (vases, ornaments, wall decor, etc. That will tie everything together. Also, I agree with the window treatment comment. It doesn't have to be a big extravagant $4000 one from Brines, just something nice and simple. A sheer swag across the top and hanging down on either side would look good. Also, another suggestion. Plants. You'd be surprised about how much life one or 2 plants can add to a room. I'd put a nice medium sized tree in, and maybe a haning plant or a couple of small plants or floral arrangements about. And if you're like me and suck at keeping houseplants alive, artificial ones are looking more realistic all the time. Homesense has some great ones. :)<br/><br/>And, that was a freebie. ;) hehehhee Ooo, It’s looking very good. I second what anygma said about cushions.

You're going to wish you hadn't posted those pictures when you come home some day to find me curled up in that chair reading! :-) It looks great - enjoy your new furniture!!
