Most of the linked colors seem to have pink undertones - not my favorite but are they yours? Does your furniture, rugs, drapery, etc. go well with walls that have a pink undertone?

I agree with Catt. Pink undertones. For resale purposes, not everyone likes that.

I think light color is best. Color combination plays an important role in interior design as it helps create the ambience of a home.

The colors seem really bland to me, and seem as though they wouldn't have much character in different lighting and wouldn't provide much ambiance.

Unless you have travertine floors, which was my first thought when I saw them.

All the colors you selected are similar. Why not just pick one color and use it all over, or use one pale color and one bright or dark color?

Neutral colors but I agree with the above they all have pink undertones. Which isn't my favorite but may work great for you.

I think the cappucino would be pretty for a bedroom or maybe a sitting room, but not sure I would have it for my LR. I picked a contemporary white for the main floor in my new home and I am not crazy over it as sometimes when I look at it, it has pink undertones and it's not what I thought it would be.

The "saturation" and pinkness of those are going to be awfully hard to work with in living room, not going to be easy to match wood tones or upholstery...

Hello friends,

I would like to say, when decorating your living room, you will want to choose colors that are both stylish and practical. After you pick your base colors, you can add furniture and decorations to complement your choices.

Nice to meet you
Caelan Simpson

All speculation is really rather pointless without seeing pics of the interior in question, furniture needs to be factored in, also.
