Pick the paint last after your furnishings and area rugs.

The last thing you choose for a room is the paint color. First comes, furniture, rugs, accessories, window treatments...then it will be simple to choose a paint color because there are thousands of them. The color of the floor is such a small part of the overall look of a room.

As an architectural color consultant I would recommend that you first decide if you want your room to have light, mid tone or dark colors first. (I would suggest a mid tone color based on your floors). Second, not any color will work with your floor because they have a red undertone. Select your wall, trim and ceiling color based on your floor and then fill in your furniture, art, accessories etc. Once the color of your fixed objects and paint color are addressed you can confidently select everything else! www.businessofcolor.com
