Living Room Interior Design Furniture What color furniture would match a dark brown leather 3-seater sofa?
Hi guys,
We bought a 3-seater dark brown leather sofa just by itself last year since our apt wouldn’t have accommodated any more than that. However, we’re now in a slightly bigger apt and now need additional seating in the living room. What do you think will go with a dark brown leather sofa (almost has a tinge of burgundy too)? The design we bought is now ‘outdated’ so there’s no expanding it.. besides, we’re not keen on spending too much anyway – we probably have just enough space for two chairs or a loveseat. What color & texture would you suggest?
Thanks SO much – so wish I was better at interior decorating! *sigh*
2 over sized chairs would be preferable to a love seat. In order not to degrade the look of the leather I would choose a chenille print. Select a traditional style that isn’t stuffy. Also see if you can find matching leather pillows to put on the chairs.

Interior Design Hotels Need help with being an Interior Designer or Architect?
Okay I want to be SO many things. One of which is an interior designing, But my questions is this when you work as an Interior designer do you create your own ideas or do you work with others and and incorporate there ideas in your design. I want to design houses, hotels, theaters, amusement parks and public places in general. Also I would like to be an architect.
I don’t get it are you selling a service?

ok so i bought a nikon D90 with the regular 18-105mm lens about a week ago [begginer]
and im about to go visit my hometown in iraq where i will be visiting this citadel
whis is what they say as “one of the oldest castle like structure” though there are barely any images of the interior online
anyways when i get to my hometown im gona actually go inside and since most ppl dont go in ther anymore i figure this willl be a good opportunity for me to practice my photography
anyway heres a picture of what the citadel looks like:
sry that i cant provide u with enough images but most of the pics are from flickr which for some reason doesnt work here [im in UAE currently]
so anyway i rly need some help on takinig pics of the interior architectural design of this citadel
should i get a diffrent lens, a stand abd possibly a filter lens since it is extremley sunny there
Hi,
Sorry – but the links did not work for me, but some thoughts anyhow: -
You will not need a filter just because it is sunny – your camera is able to be adjusted to take care of bright lights. Try some shots with “Auto” to get the feel of the camera.
More important though, is that the interior is likely to be dark, and (assuming it has windows) there will be very bright light coming in from those windows. The contrast – difference between the brightest and darkest part of the image, will almost certainly be too wide a range for your camera to record – this is absolutely not that the camera is a bad one – on the contrary it is a good model, but all cameras can only record a limited range of brights and darks – less so than the human eye.
This means that pics which include very bright lit windows, will either have the interior too dark, or the windows will have no detail at all and just be white. Getting a different lens, or even a different camera will not help this.
So: what can you do?
First, if a tripod (stand) is allowed, then it would be very helpful to have one. Set the camera to “A” mode (not one of the auto modes) and lens aperture to f/8. Take a picture and see what the result is. Use the Histogram on the preview display, and see if there is detail (peaks in the histogram) in the far right hand side – this is where the highlights are and where much of the digital data is. If there is not much showing, give more exposure compensation.
Whilst I wait for the manual to download, a few more thoughts: -
This sounds like a big trip for you? Make sure you have several memory cards. If you can, download them onto a PC, or upload full resolution files to a photo-sharing website (eg flickr) as you would not want to loose any images through some unexpected hardware problem – memory is cheap, memories are not! In any event, make sure you do not have all your trip on 1 card.
You should read the manual – I know its boring – twice at least! So that you know where all the camera controls and adjustments are, almost without thinking, and also start to learn what these controls do. Take some pictures – as many as you have time for – before your trip. Try some even at home, with no flash (the built-in flash will be ineffective in a large space), and see what the different ISO/shutter speed/f numbers make to an image. Do not rely on the small preview on the camera – look at then on the PC – you will have less unpleasant surprises later.
“A” mode – Page 6, and 43
Shoot the highest image quality – Page 50
Set white balance to “Auto” – Page 52 (also try “Direct sunlight” of you are outdoors)
ISO to 100 for best quality – go higher ISO if shutter time is too long – Page 53 – probably only indoors though
Focus “AF-S” Page 57
Exposure compensation – Page 67
Histogram – Page 65
Link to the manual below.
This is a very good camera, capable of excellent results – do practice with it as much as you can.
Have a great trip!
Cheers
Charles
