What Colours Go With a Burgundy Leather Sofa?

Burgundy leather pairs beautifully with soft neutrals such as warm white, stone and mushroom, with muted greens such as sage and olive, and with deep blues such as navy and inky teal. Natural wood, brass and aged bronze bring out its warmth, while blush pink, mustard and camel make lovely accent colours in cushions and throws. In this guide we look at how to build a full scheme around an oxblood or wine coloured sofa, starting with walls and moving through flooring, rugs, soft furnishings, wood finishes and metals. We explain how light in a north or south facing room changes the way burgundy reads, which shades to approach with care, and how to balance a strong sofa colour without letting the room feel heavy. There are suggested palettes for calm, classic and more dramatic rooms, plus practical tips for keeping the look fresh across the seasons in a real British home....
