    I love the room. So much potential. For over the fireplace,we have thousands of photographs, images, and illustrations at dezinerwallz.com that we can print onto canvas and then wrap around a gallery-quality frame. If you can give me a sense of the look and feel you're striving for, I might be able to offer a few suggestions.

    you are correct, the color is gray and the pillows are light and charcoal grey, cream and black. I should have been more specific as to it's not just accessories, but other items needed in the room. I don't know where to go from here. The grey's do have a blueish undertone. But I prefer to stay away from blue. Maybe turquoise?

    You can always change the pillows. Gray looks great with orange and turquoise, or with yellow. It looks like a very large room. Is there a TV in the room. Are there floor outlets? I'd like to see the sectional moved much closer to the fireplace. You may have a room big enough that it needs a couple of seating areas. Maybe a large bookcase could fill a wall. Could you show us photos of the other walls?

    We're talking some major expenditures here, so it might be wise for you to hire an interior designer. I've always felt that a good designer can save you money by helping you avoid expensive mistakes.

    dezinerwallz: I am looking for drama but yet an overall calm to the room. I like most art. Modern, traditional, landscapes. My favorite type of art is impressionism.

    Hi there. Here's a couple of examples of what might work. Because it's such a large area, 1 option would be to go with 1 large print while another idea might be to go with 2 or three related prints. To see more image options, take a look at dezinerwallz.com

    Glad you like it. If you have any other questions or would like more information, please don't hesitate to ask.

    Drama definitely calls for a chandelier, special window treatment and a bit of beefing up on the FP. Go overscale with art and a dramatic piece of furniture - grand piano or castle sized armoire.

    Hi. If you're looking for something dramatic, full wall coverings has become one of the hottest trends in interior decor. Here are a couple of ideas you might like. Let me know what you think.

    What a great opportunity for dramatic large pieces of art with your wonderful high ceilings. Go to Art.com or Great Big Canvas to get inspirations for sizes & styles of art. Only you can choose your art. I would not go with a two piece or a triptych as shown earlier. several pieces of different art will have more impact. Happy searching.

    Look at your favorite style 'impressionism'. You can also make choices of different sizes of the art based on your needs.

    You have a lovely room with lots of potential. I saw it and thought of this photo with the print drapery panels in a 2 story room . I like how the print drapery adds warmth to the room, but is still calming. Also attaching a photo of a print to get you motivated in your search for artwork, which is where you should start.

    And a fabric swatch for fun.....
