Room Label
My Living Room I want this room to feel more masculine/feminine/neutral
Neutral What type of sunlight does this room receive?
Very little sunlight What do you currently dislike about the room?
ceilings are not very high, room does not have windows, and we have 2 support beams in the room that we would like you to guide us on how to cover them. I am hoping u have some innovative ideas to hide these or at least make them more aesthetically pleasing! What pieces of existing furniture, lighting, art or accessories do you want to keep in the design?
we are open to adding area rugs etc if/where u see fit... 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?
Paint Are you open to changing your floor covering?
Yes, Area Rugs Attach a floor plan

Living Room:
Since your room gets little sunlight a bright color will make the room look more luminous.
For your main color, we chose to use blue because it is calming, relaxing, and serene. It reminiscent of blue skies and deep blue oceans.
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
