Re: Opinions please

I love a red room. Our living room/dining area is a warm red (pics in album). If you paint your walls a dark red, have dark furniture and then have dark bed linens (especially the navy blue), you may encounter two problems: 1) the room ends up feeling very "heavy" especially if you don't get a lot of natural light and 2) it may be hard to tell what the focal point of the room is.

Of the two options you posted, I prefer the red and tan striped. Would you consider using the striped pillows/sheets with a solid, light tan duvet? This would break up all of the dark colors a little bit and make the bed pop more. Hope this helps Chat Icon

I love the bedding #2. I'm a red fan. I would do that bedding with tan walls.
