The dark side ….

last year

So, I’ve been bold and painted our north facing snug f&b railings - all walls! I’ve bought a neutral carpet and am very fortunate to be able to buy new sofas …. But I have no idea what colour ??? Any advice gratefully received!

Depends on your style. You could go a subtle pale grey, or if you like bolder colours then orange or mustard yellow would be stunning, or a tan leather? Examples below.

I would pick my flooring first. Then I would paint the walls. Then have a look at the room and see how you like it before you paint the cupboards or the brick. Do it in steps because I think your brick could look quite nice and I like your cupboards the way they are. Just don't jump too fast painting things that you can't reverse. It may be that you will still want to paint the brick and cupboards but better to see how things look before you do. You have a lovely space !

Just wanted to add something regarding the steps since I had also asked for advice on them: we had steps installed in slate, but unfortunately they did not turn out to look very nice, so will need to get redone . Was wondering if we should also incorporate some of the bricks seen on the porch, perhaps as risers covered by blue limestone or slate just to tie everything together?

For an overall sense of a dramatic colour change I'd suggest using Crown paints room painter app. It wouldn't be accurate for exact shade like a tester pot is but it might give you the confidence to make the change! Take a good photo of your room and try it out. It can be tricky to use when there are lots of items you don't want to paint e.g. kettle, so best clear any clutter first. I've messed with your photo as an example

A few things I would change from experience...instead of a single and double door I would spend the extra money and put in a bifold corner section...would open up the space so much more. as for the kitchen...completely flip your design...put your breakfast bar closer to the window...make it large and multipurpose with the hob in it and then put your main band of cabinets either left, right or behind? We have recently restructured our existing cabinets to this layout and put in new countertops and it works far better than before!
