My son love the map. He's 11 year old. What color can I use for other three walls? Will java and lime green work? Any better ideas? Thanks!

My son (also 11) saw this yesterday and fell in love! I decided to leave the surrounding walls white. I am going to add a large bright yellow armoire and colorful accessories. The pop of orange from this couch inspired me to go with bright accessories and let the map stand out on the white walls.

I think letting the map stand on its own with white, cream or ivery walls is the way to go. I even like that this room is "grounded" with a brown rug. Just perfect!

Try White Dove OC-17 by Benjamin Moore. This color is a perfect pure white and will be a fresh contrast against the map. Hope that helps. Charmean Neithart

I always suggest a professional wallpaper hanger.
