Two leather armchairs with a fabric couch in the living room. Yay or nay?

Depends on a lot of things. If they're big over-stuffed armchairs, definitely a nay.

Yay

Furniture should never look like it came from a set.

Post picture or two, it's hard to give advice with such little information. It may go well, it could look horrible.

Black or white leather? Black may be harder to integrate than white with various shades of fabric couches but certainly can work. However, black will not stain as easy so you may find it has less upkeep. Stay away from the overstuffed laz-e-boy styled couches, and try to make sure the lines of the are cleaner and on the minimal/ modern side. You could pull a couch from a variety of sources and likely have it work based on the rest of the place's decor.

You might check out EQ3.com. They seem to have sofas that fit the modern/minimal style and are fairly affordable. Maybe someone else has bought furniture there and can speak to their quality.

They're white (more like off-white/creamish in person).
