The only color you have in this room at all is a green plant, and a bowl of lemons, so you are wide open. What colors do you like? Are you going to split the wall color around your chair rail?

Yes, am thinking about that. Am more into earth tones color.

I love your expressor furniture. Do you have any colorful art work on your walls. If you have a pop of color along with your neutral colors, it can add a wow factor and then actually enhance what you have done. It you are not considering or do not want any color in your room at all, I would either go with an antique white which will enhance the color of your expresso or a more golden wall color. Some people also are now using burnt orange.

Thanks Carolina! :-) No i do not have... :( but will be checking out the colors you suggested! Thanks so much! :-)

Omg! I loveeeee it! Thanks Michigammemom!

Yellow, in a semigloss, above, below and including the chair rail.
The yellow lemons sold me.

Yes, i would think so too. Thanks Judyg! :-)

Color wise, I'd keep the lemon yellow as an accent, not a paint color. . I like the Morgan Creek residence wall, but what's your color scheme in the LR? you may want to tie the two together to make it flow. In time, I'd put a modern rug with some slight color on the floor under the table...I don't see one, are they hardwoods or carpet? I'd also remove the chair rail, visually it makes the room look smaller. If you're going for sleek, modern, chair rail is more country. Then add some nice floor to ceiling draperies to break up all the wood in the room.

On second thought....if you are a color-phobe (like me) I wouldn't rush into painting the walls just yet. Instead, go shopping! See if you can find some accessories, or artwork, or photographs that talk to you. Buy them; display them; hang them. Then give yourself time, and the color you want might just come to you.
