Everything is beige!

18 years ago

I am having a horrible time with my family room. I've lived here a year, and painted it 3 times. I'm not at all pleased with my results. The room is pretty small, and although it has windows, feels dark to me.

My furniture poses a problem for me. It worked great in our last house, but not this one. It's oversized, which I've done an OK job making it work in the small room, but it's also a deep shade of earthy, coppery, cinnamon red.

I was so afraid of making the room too dark, that I did everything in beige. Beige rug, beige walls, beige curtains. How beige! I have a beige room with big reddish furniture. Can anybody recommend a paint color that complements furniture of this color, but doesn't darken the room?
