Cozy Brown and Blue Living Room Ideas
1. Teal and polka dots
To start us off, the photo above shows a gorgeous teal and brown combination. Even though the focal piece of the room is clearly the teal couch, they added some very needed texture and pattern with the addition of a similarly toned plush blanket and brown polka-dotted pillows. The blue and brown combination is also extended down to the decor pieces, as you can see the two stunning glass pieces that are serving their purpose as functional decor.
A patterned brown rug completes the room, rounding out the natural tones that fill the room. This is a great option for anyone looking for a fun yet simple living room decor in the brown and blue color scheme. But you can also easily add pieces to this space to upgrade it, such as some dark brown furniture pieces like a side table.
2. Leather and patterns
When an earthy toned living room comes to mind, you would definitely think of the photo above. It is a great combination of natural elements with cozy features. The couch, one of the most important pieces in any living room, really outdoes itself here. It’s a gorgeous light brown that somehow accomplishes appearing sophisticated yet comfy at the same time.
The blue pillows not only bring patterns but also texture to the room with their overt soft fabric. The blue extends to the walls of this living room, wrapping it in a darker yet relaxing vibe. The natural elements continue to pop out, from the wooden cabinets to the gorgeous trees on either side of the couch. This is an absolutely stunning brown and blue living room that would work for any nature lover.
3. Blue with brown accents
Even though brown is not one of the main colors of this living room, this is still a great example of how versatile this combination can be. The photo above shows the beautiful array of the different tones of blue that can be used without it seeming like it’s too much.
The dark brown wooden accents do nothing but upgrade this space, from the stunning tv frame to the small tables in the room. This is a modern and classy take on the color scheme, showing that you can create an elevated living room with other color schemes that aren’t both neutrals. This is a perfect living room for someone who really loves the color blue, but doesn’t want to overdo it. It’s such a great middle ground.
4. Modern chic
A modern take on the brown and blue living room color scheme, this is a gorgeous combination of navy blue and dark browns. The navy blue walls create a calming yet bold backdrop to very elegant space. The brown color scheme extends from decor to the floor. The dark brown cabinet adds depth up against the navy blue walls.
The beautiful hardwood floors tie the look together, bringing a sense of needed warmth you would want in a living room. Let’s not forget the cowhide rug that brings a rustic charm to the space as well as making it feel a little more homey. Altogether this living room is a great example of a stylish yet inviting mix.
5. Baby blues
Although the photo above showcases a combination living room and dining room, the color scheme was too gorgeous not to include on this list. A lot of people tend to stay away from the “baby blue” color that’s on the walls in this living room unless it’s a nursery. But this example is a great way to show how you can do it without making the space feel like a baby boy’s first bedroom.
Combining this light blue with the beautiful earthy brown tones you see on both the couches and the chairs is really such a great example of how to do just that. The natural lighting coupled with the hardwood floor ties the space together, giving it a relaxing yet open feeling. Add in a few pieces of greenery and you have a stunning living room. This is a perfect living room for anyone who loves the lighter tones of the blue and brown color scheme.
6. Cozy and chic
Another brown and blue combination that uses a gorgeous navy blue as the backdrop and a brown couch as the focal point of the space. Although the couch is supposed to be the eye-catching feature of your living room, this photo showcases a competing piece on the walls.
The stunning molding design on the wall is enough for anyone to instantly run to Home Depot to try to make their own. It gives the living space an instant upgrade. The navy blue color scheme extends to the couch with a cozy blanket and pillow combo, creating a warm and inviting environment.
Instead of stopping there, the blue continues on and it lends itself to the lighting fixture, a simple lamp, but seamlessly blends in with the rest of the living room. Tied together with splashes of an earthy green in small aspects of its decor, this brown and blue living room is a perfect combination of cozy and chic.
7. Patterns and more patterns
If you’re looking for how to beautifully showcase multiple patterns, then look no further than the photo above. This has to be one of the coziest living rooms yet. The color combination of cool blues and warm browns creates a stunning contrast. Starting with the blue walls, they bring a feeling of calmness to the space, which is very needed with all the different patterns and textures in the room.
The rich, reddish brown couch invites you in and keeps you there with its array of comfy pillows, each a different pattern than the next. Paired with a gorgeous hardwood floor and a plush carpet, this living room clearly wants you to stay a while. The brown and blue color scheme extends to the left of the couch, where you can find an array of soft blue pillows and a patterned quilt.
All these different textures and patterns help create a depth to the room that would otherwise feel too one dimensional. To wrap it up, you can also see a light brown knit stool that can double as either a foot stool or a small table. This gorgeous color scheme is a perfect mix of cozy and stylish, perfect for anyone wanting their living room to be an inviting space.
8. Teal and leather
The photo above is yet another great example of brown and blue living room decor, focused around a gorgeous dark brown couch. A leather couch is the perfect way to elevate any living room without sacrificing style or comfort. As you can see, the couch still maintains that cozy feeling, especially with all the large pillows scattered across it.
Even better is that this couch comes with a separate ottoman that can easily double as either another place to sit or somewhere to kick up your feet after a long day. Although the couch is definitely the focal point of the room, we can’t ignore the beautiful blue walls behind it. The cool blue tone keeps with the natural elements of the room as well as giving off calming vibes.
The earthy feeling of this space is extended to either side of the couch, with simple yet stunning greenery, and down to the floor. The dark wooden floor ties this living room space altogether. This living room is a perfect combination of cool and warm tones, perfect for anyone wanting their own little oasis in their home.
9. Typical cozy
The photo above depicts a more typical living room, albeit, I don’t think anyone’s living room is this clean on a normal day. This is a great way to showcase how to easily integrate a color scheme, from the dark brown cabinets to the blue decor pieces around the room.
The blue color scheme extends from the floor, to the blanket in the corner, and then the chair on the left side of the room. Sometimes you don’t have a picture perfect living room and that’s okay! You don’t need the Pinterest-worth living room to integrate a gorgeous color scheme like the brown and blue theme that we’ve been talking about in this blog post.
