I ran across this room setting on The Rug Company's website, and thought you would like it for it's traditional gothic feel, but also for it's not-so-strict interpretations -- the 40s style couch and arts and crafts style rug mix wonderfully with the more gothic and traditional elements. And it uses blue, which we don't see enough of in steampunk settings.

Eclectic Traditional

Thanks for this post. I am using blue for my steampunk inspired living room. I'm using predominately browns and other warm neutrals, and blue as a contrasting accent. I'm loving it so far. I'm going to be reupholstering one of my grandmother's chairs in a blue and chocolate paisley.
