Great work so far. I love the colour of the blue on the wall, the painting, and the chest of drawers. Are any of these pictures appealing? I'm thinking a bit of yellow would be nice to add or you can just add varying shades and textures of neutrals in the bedding, throws, and curtains or blinds. I've also included a couple with bronze as previously suggested.

Hi Nilam, Congratulations on your new home! Your sofas look great- they’ll work really well against the warm tones in your floorboards. As you’ve got a lot of warm browns within the space, opting for a cool grey colour scheme could be too much of a contrast for your room. However, choosing a wallpaper that pairs cool greys with warmer tones can be a great way to tie the two pallets together. One of our favourites is this beautiful grey and yellow floral wallpaper by Black Edition. This offers the grey palette that you hoped for, and the yellow flowers will work beautifully with the wooden tones already in your lounge. http://goo.gl/BBHG4F For the remaining walls, we would suggest continuing the grey tones from the wallpaper with Dulux Mineral Haze 2. If you’ve got a busy household with little ones using the space, we would suggest using an Endurance+ Matt finish on the walls. This is 20x tougher than standard matt and fully wipeable and its special formula has been designed to stand up against heavy wear. To complete the look, carry the yellow from your wallpaper throughout the rest of your space through cushions and accessories. Alternatively, if flowers aren’t your thing, this geometric wallpaper by Osbourne and Little is also a great option for your space. Introducing flashes of warm golds against cool neutrals is a really easy way to tie the two palettes together. http://goo.gl/ssY0ts For the remaining walls, Dulux Grey Steel 3 would pick up on the cooler tones within your wallpaper. As before, we would suggest using an Endurance+ Matt finish for busy areas to keep your walls looking great for longer. Finally opt for sophisticated grey accessories and silver fittings to complete the look. For both palettes, we would recommend getting tester post of the suggested colours and samples of the wallpaper, to see how they will appear in your home and under different lighting. We hope you have fun decorating and we’d love to see your new room once you’ve completed it, so please send us some photos! All the Best, Sarah-Jayne Dulux Colour & Design Expert www.designer.duluxamazingspace.co.uk

Hi Shelly, The flooring you have sounds amazing so I’m really glad you’re keeping that. With having a low ceiling, you could use an Absolute White from out Light+Space paint range. This paint makes any room feel bright and more spacious as its patented LumiTec formulation works with light-reflective particles to reflect up to twice as much light back into your room, when compared to our conventional emulsion paints. For your walls, I’d suggest painting them in a calming Chalk Blush 3 which will help add impact and a soft tranquil colour to the room. To add that pop of colour into the room, I’d suggest adding a bold stripe of warm Liberty Blue 3 to create a feature. This can be added behind the television or the sofa (depending on how bold you want to go). http://bit.ly/2cJ3Dr6 http://bit.ly/2cwvawM Good luck with the decorating, and please let us know how you get on!

Chris. I think your tiles are a really nice choice and they will give you the classy feel that you want. Either format will be fine but the rectangular tiles fitted vertically will give the impression of greater height to the room. Clearly it’s a matter of personal choice but I think that the dark grey accents cheapen the class of the tiles and bring the room in. If you wanted to go for a contrast, maybe the vanity unit in a dark wood effect would look more classy. My other thought is that the room is maybe not big enough for the shower set up as you have it here. I think that water will splash beyond the screen and in front of the toilet. My thoughts are keep the open shower screen but go with a plain white porcelain shower tray with a slightly raised lip or keep the flooring consistent and opt for a frameless glass door which will keep the water in. Could be just me but I like to splash a bit in the shower and I think you’ll end up with water in front of your loo. Best of luck with the renovation. It’s going to look great.
