Throws/Pillows to match black sofas with brown furniture?
I just bought a new living room set. Sofa, love seat and chair pictured here: http://www.globalfurnitureusa.com/popup.php?id=1147&cat_id=6&page=&contain_id=1
I would have preferred brown leather pieces, but I got a great deal on the black set. My furniture is an expresso finish. I’ve seen this paired with black leather in other furniture (chairs and bar stools) and have seen a similar table paired with a black leather set and a rust colored carpet, so I know they can worh together, but dont know how best to "marry" the brown and black pieces. I’m guessing I should use throws and pillows, but not sure what colors would be best.
The sofa, loveseat and chair are black leather. Furniture is expresso. Walls are eggshell white. Carpeting is a taupe. (this is a rental so I’d prefer not to paint the walls)
What colors would be a good choice? Any suggestions where I can buy the throws and pillows?
Just to clarify the brown expresso furniture that I’m referring isn’t another couch or chair. The expresso pieces are wooden side tables, coffee table, and a tv stand.

i think you have lots of choices with throws, candles, lamps, pillows etc. depending on the look you are trying to achieve. Red , rust, or orange would make a dramatic statement; or you could stick with a more mellow monochromatic theme and use beige and brown accents. Bright aquamarine could also work. Just experiment and see what suits you best.
I don’t know for sure, but you could try some pillows that incorporate brown, black, and beige in rather a plaid pattern. Don’t get me wrong, don’t go for the kilt plaid. Also, put a black throw on the brown furniture, and a beige throw on the black.
Pillows that have copper/gold, subtle greens, light gold. TJ Max has them. Black is a good color to have in a room because it grounds everything and just about any color goes with it.
red or something with that color. you can buy them in marshalls or walmart. well, you can pretty much buy them anywhere. =]
