Hi! This piece is ebony with coffee cherry beadedboard and feet. I see in your photos that you are drawn to navy, you could also do this in a dark navy with gray beadedboard and a light top. Good luck with your project!

More dark blue - good or overkill?

Hi Tani. I wouldn't add more blue to the walls. I love the room but would make a few changes depending on budget. I'd add a navy and white patterned throw to the sofa and pick up mustard for cushions with a little grey, white and navy. I'd add a large print over the radiator with something that has a splash of the yellow in, maybe a vintage style travel one would suit the room? If not, there's a great navy and white modern one I've seen ( just need to find it) that would look great. Maybe just a yellow orchid and bowl for the console and cabinet? Agree I would change the curtains to something patterned picking up the colours. I'd also accessorise the coffee table. I think the doors look great, if too orange for you, although look fine in this pic, I'd re-stain. ( sorry, my comments are based on the other post too re warming the room up so the only thing I'd do for resale is change the curtains I think and add a large print over the radiator)

What to do with my stairs in my newly bought victorian house?

Hi, I love the idea that Spaced Out has offered above as that would have been my suggestion upon first reading as well. I am about to 'paint a runner' on my own white painted stairs at the moment to compliment grey walls and a black front door - considering black similar to the example in blue shown above. I think it can be quite striking and very easily fits into a Scandinavian interior. Do choose paint wisely, and spend on quality in this case as stairs are hit with heavy feet and can show wear and tear quickly particularly if they are original. I have the same in my own house and have already had to do touch ups twice since we moved in two years ago. Another suggestion would be to ask your painter to put sand in your paint - not too much but just a bit - as it creates a natural tread on stairs that can be quite helpful. Painted stairs can be very slippery! Best of luck in your new home!

A jiggle and a zhoosh... Living room colour and layout dilemma

hi i can see what you mean. our new extention created a dark end to a pretty bright North West facing room, i dubbed it the Josef Fritzel wing. For me the issue is not the colour of your walls, it's the natural light distribution. Its a long dark tunnel at bottom end. What about adding a glass door and glass insert above the door frame at the dark end of the room. Graded tones of any colour would work better being lighter at the darkest end of the room then working back from that. We replaced all our internal doors with full length glass ones, ans got builders to increase even more by adding glass above door frames up to ceilings in 3 door ways. I estimate this added 15% more light into the room, and also adding a pkeasing dimention, in that as the sun moves around the house, it casts its light in key areas thru' the day. Perhaps explore the possibility of a light well tube thingy in the ceiling that casts natural pools of light into the darker areas ( always better than artificial). Plants that favour shade and some low energy LED practical lights rather than in the ceiling might add some life to it as well. One the light issue is sorted, the colours can be thought thru'
