Forgot to mention the first image is Room 1 with cool white lamp light from a single lamp.

Second image is also Room 1 but with natural light.

The last image shows our living room with the new floor. It’s the room that receives the most natural light in the house.

The wall color is a creamy white color and I was told it was a little dark (personally I like it though). We probably won’t paint it due to budget constraints.

The living room actually has two colors of white in it. Here is a partial of the creamy white wall to the left of the image where the lamp is above the couch.

And the wall paneling is painted a brighter white color similar to Sherwin Williams Snowbound

Forgot to mention all paint sample colors are Sherwin Williams.

Consider going darker on the walls to make the off white ceiling look brighter. Paint any trim and the stained doors the same as the walls. On the front door, you can have some fun..

Very affordable rug to work with sofa, walls, ceiling"

I would select an actual color, rather than a white tone, if you really dont want to paint the ceilings. Maybe a very light green, or another color, that is one of your favorites. I would carry that color over to the living room for accessories, since it needs them yet.
