After mentally going back and forth between the H & M City and modified Evening sofas, I think we are going with the City (larger 9844) and loveseat. This decision is in part because I cannot find the Evening anywhere within 100 miles for a test drive. Also, I am afraid the size and look of the Evening set would overwhelm my living room.

The living room is approximately 13X19 and does not open up to another room. I am leaning heavily towards a oatmeal/beige color. I am not very adventurous with color and I also fear the beautiful medium to dark browns will be too heavy in this enclosed living room.

I would like to get a chair and small ottoman if it doesn't crowd the room. Any suggestions on something that would compliment the City set? Would the matching City Chair #9842 in the same leather (whatever color we decide on) be too much? A friend suggested getting the chair in a fabric cover to break up the leather a bit...

Thanks!!
