You have a beautiful fireplace with neutral tones, so you’ve got a lot of flexibility for the wallpaper or paint. Here are some ideas to make it more striking while keeping it cohesive with your space.

What about charcoal color?

Thank you so much. I really like the charcoal & think it will not only blend in with the existing grey/yellow furnishings but also with the curtains which background colour is close to charcoal. So glad I advised for advice. Thank you again.
