Answer 2

if you want a modern and urban look, you could go for grey(Glidden "silver trophy") or ecru(Glidden "naturally calm") walls, both your accent colors will work with this.


if you want a warmer look, then I'd suggest painting the walls a warm spice color: cinnamon, mustard, chilli, saffron, paprika, nutmeg.both your accent colors will go with this scheme as well.
(try some of these Behr colors: "pumpkin patch" ,"chai spice", "october", "squash", "ground allspice", "spiced butternut", "roasted pepper")

if your wanting to stay in the green family, then I suggest redoing the walls in a sage grey/green. (Ralph Lauren "cameroon green")

Answer 3

Whatever it is you do, keep it neutral. I recommend a pecan color for all walls--satin, and ceilings keep white--flat. This color goes well with your golds, cranberries, plums. or burgundys. A very rich and warm color.

Answer 4

Try coral pink colour.

Answer 5

mmmm try a lighter gold color
