Neutral What type of sunlight does this room receive?

It just seems very uninspiring and "lackluster" to me. I want something that pops! What pieces of existing furniture, lighting, art or accessories do you want to keep in the design?
I definitely want to keep the brown TV storage unit...and the two sofas, if possible. Are you open to changing your wall colors?
Yes Do you have a preference for either paint or wall covering, or are you open to both?

Living Room:
Using lighter colors in your medium-sized room will make it feel more airy and bright
For your main color, we chose to use green because it is soothing to the eye. It reminds us of nature and has a refreshing, stress relieving quality. Green is suitable for any room. In bedrooms it’s relaxing and pleasing, while in dining rooms it promotes overall balance and health. This soothing color encourages relaxation or tranquility, but has enough warmth to encourage comfort and harmony.
Use an eggshell finish paint which has a very light touch of shine (similar texture to an eggshell as implied by its name). This finish is very often used for walls and is more durable and easier to clean than matte finish
