What color should I paint my bedroom?

Question

I'm looking for a color to paint my bedroom. The furnature is cherry. My bedding is chocolate brown with accents of cream and aqua. Carpet is tan. I don't want to change any of that. The room is fairly large with high ceilings so it can carry color. The rest of my apartment colors----
Bathroom is light robin's egg blue
Kitchen has one bold raspberry wall and 2 light pink walld
Livingroom is Jade green with accents of lavender, navy, yellow and melon.

So pick a bedroom color please

Answer 1

LIGHT AQUA OR TAN

Answer 2

My favorite was a three color paint job. I laid on the base coat (Misty Cloud) and then carefully masked off the ceilings and windows/doors. The next was a sort of pink/purple called Tia Maria. I stood back and flung paint at the wall with a very loaded brush. This was followed by Smoke Grey applied the same way. It certainly wasn't boring white!

Answer 3

i love the combination of chocolate and aqua.
i would introduce green with accessories.....such as plants

then think of the room as a very natural place,
sky=aqua
earth=chocolate
green=vegetation

now you need a water element.....try putting in a fountain on a small table
add pretty, natural looking rocks in a small display on another table. Some stores sell quartz in large pieces that would pick up the colors in your room.

consider doing a burnt orange color on one accent wall ... the color of sunset against the aqua blue will be a great contrast.
Then add tan on the remaining three walls to keep the room tied together.

Answer 5

I suggest you download a 3d program, put some furniture in it, then try different colors on walls to test looks to help you decide! You could also get some sample squares from a paint store. Match some of them with the colors you already have. Get the idea~

Answer 6

I would go with a very light aqua. It will match lots of things even after you want to change your bedding and it's tranquil for a bedroom.

Answer 7

Off white will be very neutral so not to contribute more to the inconsistency of colors. Beige can also be a good choice. It's difficult to give you a very accurate answer because I have not seen your room.

Answer 8

Do head of bed wall aqua, and the others cream. It will tie in with both the bath, and the bedspread.

Answer 9

Mocha
