Decorative Cushions Blog

The lighting in my room is flourescent (not the cheap bar type)…the color is white. It’s not like the nice yellow bright ones in hotels, but it is decent enough. I have modern zen-like furniture in my room, I got the platform bed nad minimal furnishing. All furniture are colored dark chocolate brown. Cushions are white, creams and golds with bright accents like orange throw pillows and natural greens from decorative plants and I got pebbles. Flooring is golden brown wood.

I’d like to paint the walls a beige, taupe or any other earthy colors to really warm up with room a little (also thinking of painting one wall a reddish tone, like mediteranean red), but am concerned how it might turn out under whitish light?

play around with the Sherwin Williams color visualizer to find colors that you like. It is the best paint visualizer on the web, imho. I like how their color palette is laid out, I like that you can search by color family & color name, the “painted” rooms look the most realistic, and it suggests coordinating color schemes. You can literally spend hours:

I think “robust orange” (# 6628) might be a good choice for the accent wall, and then paint the rest of the room “cork wedge” (# 7539).

You can take a photo of your house & upload it to the makeover gallery on this website:

You can get color suggestions & for $5 they’ll photoshop them onto your room so that you can get an idea of what it will look like.
