Designer Advice:
The orange wood tone on this upholstered bench with arms provides a unique contrast to the blue upholstery. Mix this piece with other mid-century modern furnishings and include colors that are classic to the period: ochre, orange, brown and mustard yellow. Painting your walls in Benjamin Moore’s 1585 Wales Gray will complement the blue fabric.

Upholstered Bench With Arms And Hinged Lid Storage
Wade Logan®

Designer Advice:
Cognac leather is a truly unique color as it seems to go with every other color. It behaves like the best neutrals and is entirely versatile. It looks just as great with peacock blue or a bold purpled blue as it does with navy blue. It’s amazing paired with black, white, cream or gray. It also plays nicely with reds, pinks and oranges.
