Help me decorate my livingroom

I need to do something different with it. We have a very large beigeish/light brown sectional sofa with a chaise on one end. The walls are a cream color and I have black accents in the room. I need some new toss pillows, as well as ideas for other colors to add to the room for things like vases and other accents. What colors go with the beige/black theme? I don't want to do red or white. I was thinking brown pillows but I don't know if they would blend in too much. I like purples and sage green type colors, but I don't know if they'd go. I need help!

i would do a blue/gray paint on the walls. i wouldnt do brown pillows--maybe creams and blues?

you could also very well do sage green too!

i think the sage green would work well. There is lots of wall art available at marshals/home goods/target with beige, sage & black

do you have a picture of the room?

I love brown & slate blue together. But I also love Brown and green together. Here are some pics.

Or you could go with Black & White as an accent, like this.

Burnt Orange is also a nice Fall idea.

And you can use Green & Blue together with your beige & black.

I also think you could add yellow to the room.

Check out DecorPad.com for lots of great idea. Hope these pics helped some. GL!

Thanks for the help everyone, especially with the pictures and website Jen! I don't have a photo here on my work computer. But I think if I add some of the blue and maybe a hint of green here and there it'll work nicely.
