Decorating & Remodeling - July 2006

I have a room that is very long in length and short in width.

One wall on the lengthwise axis is slanted in, with a window set in the centre. There is a small skylight in the ceiling and deep blue carpet which I cannot change.

What colours will open up my room and make it funky? I was thinking also of having a feature wall on the slanted wall. What do you think? What does everyone think of painted on effects, like a tricolour wall or a stencil in the centre? Thanks!
