Thanks Jonathan. I’m not totally adverse to the yellow and perhaps your right less yellowish window might help crisp up. I like the warmth statement and blending with greenery that current colour has but it needs painting badly and so having moved in last year feel need to make a change and loose yellow. I suppose as it is tired and everything in the house is either yellow or green (avocado) and tired!!! I’ll look at greys with off white windows as you suggest......

If you do decide upon pink - the more greyed-out, knocked-back, toned down pinks feel less sugary and can be a little less wearing on the eye than more full on PINK! But, if you have a room which feels dim, you may find you can afford to use a slightly more colourful pink than you might think, in order to show-up through the gloom. From top to bottom here the pinks become increasingly more colourful. It is possible to find a suitable pink to use in most every room : the secret is partnering the right amount of colourfulness to work with your available light.

Hi Wendy! To complement your turquoise sofa and create a vibrant yet cohesive look, consider adding a neutral or warm-toned sofa and chair, such as a soft grey, beige, or mustard, to provide contrast while keeping the space balanced. Mixing different textures or patterns, like a textured or patterned chair, will add depth and personality. You could also opt for contrasting shades like a rich navy, charcoal, or even a warm terracotta for an unexpected pop of colour. This approach will allow your turquoise sofa to remain the focal point while creating a comfortable and inviting atmosphere.
