Maybe so, but in this instance I think it looks rather ugly. I like the blue and orange they've gone with in the graphics - it feels different/fresh - but the red sofa sticks out a bit like an old relic. And let's be honest, if it wasn't for the perceived association of the red sofa, no set designer would have chosen to pair a red sofa with the rest of that colour scheme. It's very reminiscent of Daybreak bringing in a giant red sofa when they still had the deep purple graphics, resulting in an overall look which wasn't fully cohesive.
I personally think they overestimate how much the general public associate a "red" sofa with Breakfast anyway. If it was a shade of blue on Monday, I doubt anyone would really care and (in my opinion) the overall look of the programme would benefit. From what's been released so far, I think the Sportsday set looks much nicer because its colour scheme is unified and hasn't been hampered or compromised by a sofa colour.
