If something is tall and narrow then you want to pull the ceiling down by optical illusion. If it is very tall I would install a picture rail and bring the ceiling colour down the walls to the picture rail. I did this and now I find I want to put a wide hanging along one wall of my hallway so it is now practical as well as creating an optical illusion. Another way of achieving this is the dado rail at about 4 foot high. Then you can use two shades of the same colour the darker one at the bottom and the lighter one above. Richard Rumbelow's suggestions are another way of achieving this optical illusion. Your photograph suggests it is a Victorian building originally so these ideas would be in harmony with that.

It's a wonderful space. I'm not sure it makes the best use of it having the furniture round the outside. How about having a table in the centre with a 'statement piece' on it. A piece of sculpture or just a vase of flowers would make a wonderful entrance. <div><a href='https://www.houzz.co.uk/photos/2344516/fitzroy-development-transitional-living-room-other-metro'><img src='http://st.houzz.com/simgs/34f10cb000e404df_3-5078/transitional-living-room.jpg' border=0 width='320' height='214' /></a></div><div style='color:#444;'><small><a style='text-decoration:none;color:#444;' href='https://www.houzz.co.uk/photos/traditional/living-room' >Transitional Living Room</a> by <a style='text-decoration:none;color:#444;' href='https://www.houzz.co.uk/professionals/photographers/london' >London Photographers</a> <a style='text-decoration:none;color:#444;' href='https://www.houzz.co.uk/pro/snookphotograph/chris-snook' >Chris Snook</a></small></div> Sorry - can't get the photo to show!

A patch repair will be fine. I would scrape off any loose material, skim over the area with gyproc easifill and lightly sand when dry. I’ve used gyproc easifill for everything from filling wall chases to hairline cracks. The decorator I used on my most recent renovation project also used it for all kinds of minor repairs. There are some good videos on YouTube that can show you how to use it.

I painted a couple of dated pine bookcases and they were so much nicer painted. I used Little Green Slaked Lime eggshell paint. Here’s one of them.
