Comments (29)You could add a number of things to help bring life to the room. You have chosen the perfect muted colour scheme that will complement lots of art work and colours. From your photos I would say you could add a large mirror above the fire place- you could go for something to complement the period of the property and fireplace or something slightly more industrial would work as it looks like you are already mixing contemporary and period with your choices of furniture and finishes. Art will be a huge help as well. Choose some large and smaller pieces to compliment the size of the room- you look like you enjoy your music and media (from the large tv and speakers) maybe some repro or original posters of favourite films? Or framed vinyl covers of you favourite albums. Pick things that you aesthetically connect with. Art is personal and should be something you enjoy every time you look at it, so pick pieces because you like them. It doesn’t need to be expensive. You could also think about a statement clock in the room as well. Lots of options I would say. Do not feel limited by a particular colour scheme with the art- go with things you enjoy looking at. For the sofa -with throws-mimic nature- stick to earthy tones grey browns you can pick up lots of cosy throws in these colours or animal Hyde type colours or actual Hyde’s...and once you have chosen your art- find cushions that are different sizes and textures (not leather) to help soften the look of the sofa and draw the eye away from its shape and on to the cushions! Or go with the nature theme and embrace the animal Hyde’s colours and it will all tie in with the leather. Of course these suggestions depend on personal preference but there are lots of ideas on houzz and pictures that can help with inspiration...hope my suggestions are of use!!...See MoreWhat colours with grey carpet
Comments (8)Hi Monica, If your room dark and narrow it's better to stick with light colours to make it visually bigger. I would advice you to make one wall light grey colour so it matches your carpet and add some bright decor such as cushions/vases/flowers/books/frames (see the picture below). You can change your decor every season (summer/winter) and your room will be all the time different. For instance, I have 2 sets of cushion for my sofa - winter ones and summer ones as well as different coffee table decor so that I can change my room mood. Hope, this information is helpful.

Comments (20)Without seeing the room it is very hard to picture what would go, but blues, greys and whites do tone well with rich woods or the paler woods. I think you can mix woods as long as they are similar in tone, but too much of a mish mash of woods can look odd. I have dark oak laminate floors and oak tv cabinet and side tables. I did have some ginger pine bookcases but I’ve painted them instead as it was a bit too orange! I like this picture which is wood overload and still beautiful:-...See MoreF&B Breakfast Room Green office - now what accent colours?
Comments (13)Understood. But don’t forget those colours you have selected ,belong to identifiable Hue Families. (indicated by the coloured segments on the wheels above) Wimborne White belongs to the Yellow Hue Family for example. But am not suggesting you need to pair it with a bright Yellow - but teaming it with other colours from the same Family would mean they have a colour connection. You can find blacks, whites, greys in each of those Families on the wheel. Choosing ones which have some connection to the colours you have already chosen, helps keep your palette tight. F&B All White + Little Greene Lamp Black both belong to the Green-Yellow Hue Family, just as Breakfast Room Green does. They share colour DNA....See Morehbaggie
