What colors schemes should be used with a dark brown?
My fiance and I have painted all of the rooms in our newly acquired home. For our bedroom we painted all of the walls a dark (mocha) brown. My fiance loves this color but I think we need to lighten up the room a little. We do have orange (rustic orange color) window accents and a mocha/orange/tan bedding. I was thinking of painting a tan border around the upper portion of the walls maybe 4″ thick and applying a varnish to the ceiling. Please let me know of your thoughts as to what colors may work and how to lighten up the space. Thank you, any URL’s would be great as well.
i have about the same colored walls in my living room and i found it a bit dark too. I put textured wallpaper on the ceiling that looked like tin panels and then painted it copper. looks fantastic and brightens the room immensly. works well with browns and oranges. you can also get paintable polystyrene ceiling tiles that are much easier to install than wallpaper. they can be glued right over a popcorn ceiling easily. Just go to ebay and search “celing tiles”. I installed this kind of tile in my bathroom ceiling and painted them silver/aluminum. If you use the textured wallpaper, you will have to first install a smooth subsurface of particle board over the popcorn for the wall paper to adhere to.
