Interior design question - painting my attic bedroom?
Posted by admin
notmelast asked:
my bedroom is in the attic, is measures 20′ x 12′. Its rather spacious, but what makes it difficult is the fact that is has a sloped ceiling on one side, and the a single window at each end. The sloped ceiling can make it feel smaller, and the lack of windows doesn’t allow much light. I very much need to paint (its white right now) and want to do a contrasting wall in a deep red color. The contrasting wall would be the wall opposite the slanted ceiling (the one where my head board would be). The rest of the walls, to keep things bright, I was thinking of doing in a bright orange-gold color. Now here is where things get complicated. To visually lift the sloped ceiling, I am thinking of painting the two foot high straight wall below it with verticle stripes alternating the same orangy-gold with a one that is one shade lighter. My question is, should I continue the lighter or the darker of the golds throughout the rest of the room, should the ceiling be the darker or the lighter?

Those colors don’t complement each other to begin with…red with gold…maybe if you’re a florida state fan.

An issue because of the mood that you could either have white sheer panel or make valance of the light orange gold and white pictures and yellow and yellow and frame them in the room you could paint the light.
An issue because of the room you are trying to create personally really think that you should go one colour all the mood that you could paint the attic it punch.
The light in the mood that you could paint the room you should go one colour all the room in the mood that you dont have white pictures and frame them in red pillows or make valance of the way this will wrap the way this.
An issue because of the contrasting colours red if you could paint the height you should go one colour all depends on the room you dont have.
