What color paint would look best with dark brown furniture in a home office?
November 19, 2009
We recently bought a home with "unique" taste. I am looking to renovate a bedroom that will become our home office. It used to be an 8 year old's bedroom with aqua blue walls and a dolphin border.
I am looking for a traditional/contemporary look- crown molding, big dark brown leather chair with ottoman, bookcase, and dark colored desk. There will be a lot of dark wood and dark leather in the room and I would like to pull up the carpet and lay very dark, thick wood flooring. Other than a tasteful colorful rug, what recommendations would you make for wall color, trim/crown molding finish and accent pieces?

I think that you should paint the room like a light brown or tan because this color goes really well with dark brown colors.
If you’re going for dark furniture, etc, go for light walls. Brown goes with so much – cream, beige, duck-egg blue. Perhaps when you have things in situ you could try some colour testers on the walls and see what you like?
If you really want a rich elegant look then I would paint the room or at least 1-2 walls a rich burgundy /maroon and the others a brown or tan that doesn’t clash with the color of the furniture’s wood.
Ooohhh very nice..love this idea..
anyway..I like a deep tuscan yellow something like a nicotine yellow (brownish, goldish kind of colour). I would accent with off white ceiling, trim, doors, recessed lighting, one great black iron ceiling fixture, one great tiffany desk lamp with deep red accents.
My living room is dark brown colours, I painted the walls cream and used duck-egg blue cushions to top it off. The colour scheme is very nice and becoming very popular.
I think pink goes very well with this or maybe like mustard…
