To Wallpaper or not to wallpaper?
Comments (16)A belated THANK YOU to everyone who commented. This is the final result. We're super happy with it. Room A north facing "through-lounge" in a new build, 3 bed semi detached house Paint Walls: Purbeck Stone, Farrow & Ball Ceiling: Strong White, Farrow & Ball By the way, the room isn't as long and skinny as it looks in the photos. Painting it all one colour actually made it feel much, much larger. We were really impressed with the quality of advice the F&B staff gave us in regards to colour. We loved Purbeck Stone from the minute we saw it, and being brave really paid off....See MoreWhat colour complements this wallpaper?
Comments (12)The background seems to be a soft calming pale warm grey which I would try to match on the other walls and pick up the yellow in some of the accents such as lamp bases, curtains, cushions, a throw for the bed or even upholster a chair or long bench for the end of the bed if there is room for it. I would use a deeper tone of the grey or an aubergine in some other accent pieces, perhaps the bedhead or bedside tables....See MoreHelp: fabrics to complement a wallpaper
Comments (11)Having looked at damask wallpapers in the photos on Houzz, on the whole if the curtains are a different colour to the wall then they are plain. If a different pattern is used in any soft furnishings then they are in the exact same colour as the wallpaper.

However, it might be worth looking at some of the fabric and wallpaper designers websites or in a soft furnishings shop to see how they treat different patterns within the same colour collection. I suspect it will be to do with scale, ie put a small pattern against a big pattern. Another option is to use a sumptuous plain, such as a moiré and have a contrasting colour leading edge on the curtains which you then pick up in patterned cushions....See MoreWhat paint colour will compliment this feature wallpaper?
Comments (7)I would go with a shade or two lighter than Cashmere. It seems like you want understated elegance in this room, and you’ve chosen a stunning wallpaper which provides a lovely texture and anchors the grey palette....See MoreHaysey Design & Consultancy Ltd
