The trouble with wall lights, are they're a bit static, in the wall, I hope they dont change the size or type of bed in the future. We have recently installed ceiling mounted lights in our sons bedroom, which can be moved easily enough, but then are still pretty fixed as they have individual dimmer switches at the side of the bed (as well as controlled at the doorway gang) so all the same static issue regardless that I chose lights with adjustable pivots or not. When I go for making one of the more master suites, I'm going to go with either a shelf above the bed, or other custom headboard which can be changed easier. In another room, I have a high bed and didnt want to be stuck with permanent electric layout dictating the room, so went for very tall buffet lamps... they work great alongside the enormous headboard. Probably not much help, but it's all I have, I'm sure you'll get some glossy designer home inspiration on houzz :)

you ended up going with layered lighting or stuck with ceiling spots? I’ve been playing around with wall washers and LED strips lately and it’s made a huge difference in how cosy my flat feels, especially in the evenings. Curious to hear what worked well for your space!

We just painted our house interior using Taubmans China Doll, a very neutral colour that complements various shades and timbers, and the light throws different tones within the paint.

Thank you! I have painted some test patches on the wall (they just photograph as black though) a lighter colour could be good. Or switching it the darker above and lighter below. The reason I was thinking dark panelling and woodwork is because there are two stained glass doors which I want to paint. I thought dark blue would be a good colour for those which lead to the panelling being the same colour. I do think it might be too dark. Could be hard to know until it’s done 😆 The other doors will be natural wood. I do like the farrow and ball colour you suggested! It might be too similar to my living room colour or it could complement it really well. https://craigandrose.com/products/1829-french-turquoise Less keen on the grey although I did try farrow and ball French grey which was also nice. My original thought was a dark green but there’s a lot of that elsewhere in the house
