Comments (10)Sorry I did look the other day but failed to find anything! I do like what you've chosen but my only thought with the table was whether there were too many lines going. You have the slanted legs of the sofas and hair pin of furniture. I was thinking of a round drum type table and a curvy table lamp although your lamp works well. Ignore what I’ve used in the 2nd as just showing shapes (and you’d need to be careful the gold/brass finishes don’t clash) Is tha paint and curtains staying the same?...See MoreDecent daylight lighting help for middle room and decor to brighten it
Comments (7)Long post but this is an issue I have struggled with over the years. I am pretty sure I suffer from SAD or I am just extremely sensitive to light and temperature. Having lived in a fairly dim house and now a very light house the difference to mood is startling. When dealing with the dinge, good lighting is your friend.

I would get an electrician do do this. https://tala.co.uk/products/core-recessed-downlight-gu10?variant=45919564562671 https://www.collingwoodlighting.com/product/h2-deco-csp/ Other than that, lamps are good and don't paint the room white or off white. White can only look white in natural light, otherwise you have a grey room. Opt for something warm and with a bit of oomph. This could be an ochre, a terracotta etc. Graham and Brown have some good colours and they send stick on samples. Best of luck ( :...See More- 9 years ago
