Combined Living/Dining:
Since your room is smaller using a light and pale color will enhance the light and the space in your room
For your main color, we chose to use gray because it is neutral and seen as elegant and classy. It compliments many colors such as white, blue, and yellow and works well as part of a color scheme in any room.
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. I would suggest a semi-gloss for the trim.
