hi all, update is I have finally found a photo of someones stairs done in Brintons timorous beastie yellow Ruskin butterfly and its made me decide we are definitely 100% going for this as I love it (see attached pics) on stairs and landing... Floor in hall will be oak herringbone parquet, just wall colour to decide and we have bought new tall skirting so colour to paint this also? i have attcahed apic of the hall currently so you can see our front door with stain glass.. As Ive mentioned before the banister and spindles will be replaces with square spindles with an oak top banister and oak end cap - similar to this houzz pic ... So just to deicide on wall colour and new skirting colour... I really like f&b light blue in a hall with oak parquet but I don't feel this will go with the carpet... Kitchen and dining room will be one of the sage shades and lounge Wimborne white and downpipe...

Hello, I quite like the colour of the handrail you have now. I f you prefer to change it you should rather go for white, considering the floor and wallpaper it is better to keep it simple! StJames Design Interiors

Quite a few options depending on your style - mirror or collection of smaller mirrors, big picture, family photos, some interesting wallpaper.... Just avoid shelves as hard to dust.

I would use black on the balcony to freshen it up. The garage doors are a lovely weathered shade, could you just stain them with something clear like yacht varnish? They look like wood. Tbe double glass door under the canopy with the Y supports does not blend with the other frames. The two sets of double doors are very different in appearance. Painting them the same would unify the space somewhat althought they are completely different styles. Another option is a colour like Mizzle from Farrow and Ball which is a soft green with a touch of grey. I would be wary of too many colours as you already have the style difference.
