You are very kind and I'm so glad to help. That looks like the graham and brown, Desire wallpaper we collaborated on! It is stunning!! Side wall color supports it perfectly and it all looks great with your furniture. Your tastes always seem to fall on the cool and modern side of updated traditional. In the states, we call that transitional. An extension of that concept is what I call classic modern. I think you should continue the room in that vain so choose a modern/contemporary rug. I love Persian and traditional rugs, but these don't fit your decor. One thing that I have really enjoyed about working with you has been the excuse to see what's available across the pond. Found this UK online rug supplier with some great examples. Large pattern in mostly open background. Colors very harmonious. http://www.rugsdirect2u.co.uk/bargains/aspire-danube-cream-pink.html Deep colors ground the space yet relate to overall scheme. Has some red. Again, large pattern. I think a large pattern goes best with the scale do the damask. Also, I wouldn't go with anything more "floral" than this. A busy modern floral may compete with the damask. http://www.rugsdirect2u.co.uk/bargains/trance-anasia-owred-mulberry-red.html Not sure how much I like this one, but I like it enough to suggest it. It's another example of large scale floral but in serious reds. (You asked about red, and I think I definitely has a place either dominately or as accent.) http://www.rugsdirect2u.co.uk/bargains/trance-mia-red.html Tone on tone abstract makes a perfect complement to the room. This silver color ties in everything in the room and allows the wallpaper to remain the focus. http://www.rugsdirect2u.co.uk/contemporary/a-hedley-silver.html One color, cream. But the carved detail is interesting and modern http://www.rugsdirect2u.co.uk/contemporary/elements-el-20-cream.html The white on purple is bold and graphic. And this Pattern and repeat really speaks to your wallpaper. http://www.rugsdirect2u.co.uk/contemporary/harlequin-milano-ha10-044-purple-3.html Also in a beige color they call fawn. http://www.rugsdirect2u.co.uk/contemporary/harlequin-milano-ha10-046-fawn-3.html Purple and gray abstract. It's funky design would be an interesting contradiction to the wallpaper. http://www.rugsdirect2u.co.uk/contemporary/matrix-wave-ma09-946-purple-4.html Cowhide patchwork in ivory, sand, gold and gray. It's the ultimate in contradiction, yet works in an eclectic manner. http://www.rugsdirect2u.co.uk/contemporary/rodeo-metallic-ivory-2.html I hope some of these appeal to you and give you inspiration! Let me know what you think.

Thanks all and sorry for the lack of response! E D: on the curtain fabric I was thinking of something like velvet or similar but as you say cotton may fold better...I am going to a fabric shop tomorrow so will have a good look at what they've got. Sarah: thanks for your suggestion, really like your choice!! But yes something with a shade may be better for our room... Ribena: drape and pool is exactly what I was thinking off thanks!!! And it had passed through my mind to have some cream wooden slated blinds also so just have the curtains for dress. Minnie: liking your suggestions...still very keen on curtains tho. As we Have space it would probably work better as you say to move the bedsides away from the bed a little. Will do some experimenting!! Also love the chair idea!! Hadn't thought of that but definitely nice to have a chair in a guest room :-) Gina: thanks v much also, liking those lights! Definately needs to be something minimal as you say... Really love these but not quite as willing to pay the price!!! a lot of food for thought! thanks all :-))

It looks a great room. It's quite tricky to help as you're collecting things you really love from travels etc so you're probably best placed to choose! I assume you're not having a tv? The layout doesn't quite work for me personally as the single sofa isn't sociable and you don't really have a focal point. I'm not sure on your thoughts re layout but I might remove the leaf from the table and store the odd chairs. Put the table where the sideboard is and put the sofa where the table is (leaving a gap in front of the radiator). Then move the sideboard where the sofa is and have a chair under the wall light angled towards the sofa. I might add a Persian rug in spice colours with a bit of blue in. I think I would update the windsor chairs by painting them, I quite like the idea of doing them in colours scales. The lamp is for the sideboard. Love the art and mirror but the scale doesn't quite work. If you did change the layout (and it worked!) I might revisit where you've got things on the wall. I like the coffee table on the link but it may be too large and samey but it may be worth checking on their website periodically. I think a large plant on the floor would look great plus 1/2 smaller ones or stems on furniture. PS love the burnt orange rug, I've been after one for ages! https://www.curiosityinteriors.co.uk/living-room-furniture-c5/coffee-lamp-tables-c7/whiteleaf-upcycled-trunk-coffee-table-p2549

Whilst looking for bathroom wall lights for me I saw these that you may like? Can choose white or green marble & cool or warm light. https://www.litfad.com/marble-rectangle-wall-lighting-idea-post-modern-led-white-wall-mounted-lamp-with-slim-tube-detail-in-warm-light-s-238688.html
