Will a leather sofa and a suede futon match well in the same room?

Both are grey. Sofa is a charcoal grey leather and the futon is a charcoal suede -type fabric. I would like the futon to act as a "love seat" in the space.

    I think it would look fine. Perhaps add some pillows or throws that can tie the two together with some coordinating colors. The eye will go to the accessories first.

    Hi LaToya, Your idea sounds great. I think the different shades of gray would work well together. I think you should bring in coordinating colors with art, pillows, throws, etc. If you ever want to change the decor in this room, it will be a lot less expensive to change pillows and artwork than a sofa. Aqua or hot pink would go great with gray. I hope you find this info helpful. Best wishes and good thoughts.

    My opinion, it depends on style of sofa, if big bulky,or very traditional absolutely not the futon will either look small and out of place or it will look to casual. If sofa like mine casual and a reclining leather sofa then I don't see why not. And do as the previous people said to tie it all together.

      Your futon looks like a sofa not your typical futon. That's great,yes put them in same room. It should work out fine. I love your choice of leather sofa. I hate mine. I hate recliners. But yours is right in the sweet spot not to casual since nicely squared but not formal because of arm rest. Perfect. Your futon is lovely it has a feminine touch it is graceful and I think that they play off each other nicely. Love your rug as well. You didn't ask for this but ditch the drapes they will ruin any look. Sorry but had to say it cause I want your room to look great and I see three great pieces, but hey all in due time and it's your home and we all have our own taste. After that you would think I would erase it but I can't cause I know in my heart that I would feel badly about not being honest, even though you didn't ask.
