Alternatively, a panel-effect wallpaper design like Trianon can imitate the look.

An Armchair in Tarsa and Odie then repeat the red from the curtains on upholstery.

Maplehurst Armchair can further tie the room together by matching the sofa in design and being upholstered in the curtain fabric. This makes a wonderful statement piece.
