Living Room Paint Colour Advice?

side tableI'm attaching the pics of the furniture I've bought for the living room:

  • The TV table and the coffee table are dark brown top with rustic green bottom.
  • TV table
     
    coffee table
     
  • The couch is a brown leather couch with two dark brown side tables.
  • sofa
     
    side table
     
  • I plan to have dark brown wooden blinds on the window in the living room.

  • I've bought two single seaters which are green.
  • Stockholm green chair
     
  • I have a large greenery portrait from Ikea to go behind the couches.
  • print
     

So it's more of a dark brown with green theme for the lounge which also extends into the dining area. My dining table and chairs are also dark brown.

Here is what I need advice with; my lounge is not very big.

  • What colour should I paint on the wall behind the couch on which I will hang the large scenery print as in the picture?
  • What colour should I paint the wall behind the TV table which will be opposite to the couch?
  • The window is more like a door and opens into the garden. It will have dark wooden blinds. What colour should I paint that wall?
  • Any advice would be much appreciated as I'm really confused about the colour scheme. I wanna have one or two large plants in there as well to go with my green and brown theme.

    Thanks.

Since you have so many dark hues (which I think is great) maybe ivory or off white. I don't care for the pure white, I think it looks stark. If this were my room I would do both the side walls and ceiling in off white or ivory.

I agree with Marty on the cream paint. It not only goes with the different shades of green, but also with the dark brown. You really do need a lighter color in the room.

If you had chosen lighter color furnishings, then you could swing for darker walls. Light walls also give the illusion the room is larger. Have fun!
