And your table would look better centred with the wall, maybe further back a bit too.

I need help with paint colour for my living room and kitchen walls

We just painted a color called "Latte" over the dark red walls in our place and we keep thinking that someone left the light on! It adds that much light to the place as the red was just sucking out any light in the place. Find a color you like more for that wall and repaint...and/or maybe add a ceramic tile backsplash? It will make it feel brighter in there immediately as you will get a lot of light reflection. I love the idea of sage green with your cabinets.

Happy to help ! I'm only a short swim away in England !! I think if you want a truly opulent cream for the kitchen cabinets - I'd suggest you get a colour match for the range ! It looks a very creamy cream ! Think it could be stunning ! Then have slightly lighter walls and tiles to keep the room feeling light and airy ! If you have walnut stain for your worktop on your island , I'd suggest using that on your exposed legs if you go for the dipped paint look on the table and chairs ! Are you having the classic CC shaped island ?!?

Hi Odette! Have you had any progress with decorating? Hanging a mirror could be good in terms of light reflection and making a space seem bigger than it is. I like your idea with the photographs and horizontal lines - I might add some adjustable spotlights to make a feature out of the photographs! For e.g.

I presume your table is situated slightly off centre so the doors can open.

The Range have some large wall clocks that are very competitively priced.

I love a big wall clock like this oversized skeleton clock.

The table isn’t off centre, it just appears that way due to the angle of the pic. It’s centred.

Centred between the external and internal doors? Really doesn't look like it, definitely angle of pic is deceiving!

a friend of mine did a hybrid gallery wall & clock. 12 favourite family photos (she used mixtiles) in a circle with large clock hands in centre on navy blue wall. its v cute

This is a large wall of perfect rectangular shape. It can accommodate a large artwork. This would be sophisticated and more impactful than a gallery wall. It would give your dining room personality.

I wouldn’t put a large clock there, it’s a dated look. Also, do you want to be reminded of the time when you’re sitting down for a meal with family or friends?

Ellie’s gallery wall looks lovely and so much more interesting than just one large piece!

A group of hanging plants by the window, large floor lamp to the right which will make for better lighting when having dinner & one or two pieces of art to the right of the plants.

Ellie’s gallery wall looks so interesting and inspirational- and has the ability to change items easily to refresh. One huge piece of artwork IMO would overwhelm the wall

A kelim rug would look good, or something textural, not too colourful. I wouldn't put a large clock there. I think it's nice to add non typical elements to a kitchen to make it warmer.

I think a huge statement clock would be stunning. I need to fill a very bare hall wall and have settled on the 90cm of the black one here shown in the 2nd pic. It also comes in silver and a gold tone I think. Good luck.

This is a fair size blank space, and even a large clock could look quite lost on it. I would be tempted to put a nice sideboard in front, have a few statement pieces on top but keep it simple, and then a large statement clock above. It could look absolutely stunning!

I would opt for a large piece of art / painting or photo. Landscape / horizontal aspect. Art is inspiring and impactful, a big clock only emphasises the passing time, which I find a little depressing. PS: huge fan of Hague Blue, great colour choice!

If you go for artwork or a gallery wall, here's our advice on how to hang it (it might seem obvious before you start but it's important to get everything neat and level - especially with a dramatic background!). The Hague Blue looks lovely. https://absoluteprojectmanagement.com/hanging-artwork/

If you have expensive Art I wouldn't put it in the kitchen due to all the smells and possible grease, although it depends on how much cooking you do.

ive got a navy wall (Little Greene Woad) and I chose three sepia holiday snaps in white frames. I bought the pictures and framed them myself. It took me ages to line them up - I’d love a gallery wall but I couldn’t cope with the stress of trying to place them!

That rich blue could be ‘distinctively’ brought to life with a clock that shares a shelf, say, with a deep green hanging plant like a droopy fern.

If you like books you can try the “Bookworm “ from Kartell. When you fix the shelf you decide the shape

I have a whole wall of clocks which I love and would look great here, it’s a bit of a change from just pictures?

A nice large wooden world map to pin your travel moments and share your stories over dinner.

it really depends on your style age and circumstances. but I love a picture shelf that can accommodate a range of pictures and little keepsakes, something that reflects everyone in the family. I would personally choose a white picture shelf and white frames to stand out from the dark background.

A group of baskets would look lovely on that wall. Available at Binga Baskets from Zimbabwe – Huckleberry (huckleberryuk.com)

As soon as lockdown is abolished that horrible ‘Coronavirus Blue’ will disappear from walls nationwide and not a day too soon it is so depressing, lighten up everybody, if you went outside and saw a sky that colour you wouldn’t run inside and shout ‘wall got just the colour and I’m gonna live with you’.

I've always loved the colour blue and wouldn't associate the colour with covid but since you do then it's best you don't have blue in your home.

Richard, can we see an update on the wall please?

Ooh Ellie. Might be good to post your gallery wall inspo pick in the other thread. Think it was you who suggested a more eclectic arrangement might work well ??

Never thought of Covid blue, but def covid wall panelling. People seem to have gone crazy over it, all over Instagram - think it's a great effect for very little money but it will be interesting to see who starts tearing it off first. No more nails will literally be that!! 😂🤦‍♀️

Sorry for post hijack, would love to see what you came up with for your lovely room!!

Blue has been popular long before the COVID-19 virus struck. I'm not sure it's appropriate to compare this terrible virus with other people's tastes in interior decor. Just my opinion.
