It definitely helps if you choose an overall color scheme for your flat. If you have one major scheme, and all your colors go well together, that will create a cohesive feel for your flat. You can definitely match your accessories (pillows, art, curtains, etc.) to your overall color scheme, but you don't have to. If your big pieces (couch, furniture, bedding, rugs, kitchen features) match your general colors you'll be fine. Basically, don't feel like you have to match every single thing in your house to one of five colors. Choose paint colors and the big things in a coordinating scheme, then don't be afraid to add touches of something different to each room. You don't have to stress so much about matching if your rooms have a cohesive feel. Another way to accomplish that is choosing an overall style for your home. I.e. don't have an ultra modern dining room and a southern traditional living room. They won't feel like they fit together. If you tend to like contemporary pieces, aim for that style in every room of your flat, not just one or two. This even comes down to the details - I noticed you have some pretty ornate molding in the room with the red wall. If you like traditional styles, keep it! If you like modern, replace it will something more simple and streamlined. If you're not sure, post some of your favorite rooms and we'll help you figure out your style. Also, I would suggest using lots of lighter, soft colors in a flat that is north-facing. The light, bright colors will keep a room from looking too gloomy. Dark accents are fine to balance it out, but you won't want a lot of heavy, dark wood pieces to darken the space too much. Your light countertops are a great way of keeping the light colors in the kitchen. Try to keep the bigger pieces in lighter to medium dark colors, rather than the black/brown end. I think your couch will be just fine - it's a great neutral. Just add some light accent pillows.

Like Jonathan said it's hard to comment without pictures, but if it makes you feel better, we have just moved house and all our rooms were white. We had pops of colour from cushions, artwork etc and it never felt cold. The only time I didn't like it was when we had packed everything up and so only the bare minimum was out. I couldn't believe how stark the walls looked. The house looked completely different. So I'm just trying to say the soft furnishings completely transform a space. I loved the white, it provided a perfect, clean backdrop.

Are you keeping the curtains? If so a different neutral may clash. I have virtually the same colour sofa in my snug and have Slipper Satin and Inchyra blue. However, I would look at Skimming Stone (which may work with your carpet) and Inchyra Blue as a pairing.

Hi Carolina! Thanks fo your reply. Our style is modern with a touch of classic. Picture of the sofa attached. We are thinking of a shade of green. Something similar to Atlas 951 from Hay Attached are also the pictures of chairs we have in mind (either Bordeaux or orange) and the walnut table that will go with it. Everything will be new ;-) Thanks again. Regards, Deepti
