Interior Design Advice!?

Hi, I am a 21 yr old male and my boyfriend and I are in the process of re-decorating our home and we are now trying to figure out what we are going to do in our bedroom. Right now the walls are white and we deffinetly want the room painted to liven it up a little. We both agree that we want the color of the walls to be versatile enough that if we want/need to change the bedding or the decore it is going to transition smoothly. The obvious choice is to leave the walls white but we deffinetly want some color. Interior Design Advice!?
I suggest you go with a nice neutral like a linen beige, a subtle yellow (with a beige undertone - Lowes has a color called Pear in the Eddie Bower line that is awesome), browns or greens. Then you can play with your accessories, the bedding, curtains, etc. If you start with nice earth tones you can change the colors of your accessories with no problem.





DON'T leave your walls white that is too stark and impersonal. Warm it up with some color ;)





Here is a picture where I have that Pear color and a nice neutral Green on the other wall. The green is also from Lowes. I believe it's American Tradition and the color is something willow. If I find the swatch I will update my answer.

If you want color, you need to pick a color that will blend with


any color. Some natural colors like sand, taupe, pale yellow,


light olive, and light mocha. These colors are versatile. You can use accents with bright colors or dark colors. These accents will bring your room together. Also, your window treatments can be such to let sunlight in and get a fresh clean feel for the room.





Look at department store catalogues. Look at the bedding section to see how the bedroom is displayed. Notice the


walls and the decor in the room. You may come to a decision just by what you see.





Good Luck!












Take your cue from the color scheme already going on in the house. Keep the tone and sheen of the paint close to what is already in the house.
don't paint


gild the ceiling with copper and have venetian plaster applied to the walls
