I like being comfortable and big (bulky as you say) leather reclining furniture when I watching my 75" TV. So you don't like Oriental, I do like Oriental, but I don't like Persian rugs, I like modern contemporary.
You style is different, but I would never say publically that I that your style is drab. In fact, why don't you post a photo and let us all see your wonderful home and it's decor.

I said the house (itself, not the walls inside) is a light blue. I'd never use light blue for interior. And the light blue of the outside of my house is a bright light blue, not a subtle pale light blue. I said the oriental was an exotic touch that should be a FEATURE. That means I like it.
You seem to be having difficulty with my post.
This entire thread exists to trash peoples' taste. That's why the first post, and several others, are criticizing the color of someone's house. If it's okay to trash a house belonging to someone you don't know, why is it not okay to criticize the decor of a house belonging to someone you do know?
Your oriental touches are great. I don't think they belong with blue walls and huge bulky furniture, or with cream or yellow, or that rug. They look like they belong in a whole other setting. You should put some Georgia O'Keefe prints on the walls of that room and maybe put the orientals in a den or study, with natural materials and colors for furnitures.
The only way I can figure out how to upload photos here is to give access to my google account gallery. I'm not going to do that.
