Cool stairs

Hello Sansapt, Basically, it is not the price difference between the different paint types that matter much. It is the respective preparation required for these is what is makes them costlier/cheaper. Premium paints highlight even minor undulations in the walls (more than the regular ones). So, they require a lot of prep work before the painting even starts.If your putty and primer work are done thoroughly using premium paints would make sense. Otherwise a regular emulsion would give better results. Sheen in paints is often misunderstood with gloss. You won't see a reflection even if it's an aspira. We personally prefer Aspira because we are lucky to have thorough painters team. If you have any doubt go for Royale matt, as a safer bet. Color choice is very individualistic and you are a better judge. Your designer, would know your taste and would recommend you a suitable choice. Asian paints also offer a free consultancy. Please use that. PS: Not a big fan of their express painting service though. Thanks, Nitin CORNERSTONE DESIGNS Bangalore

Hi you can add a small section or a sheer partion screen and make a mud area for jackets umbrella shoes etc when people enter the house and so that they dont enter your living room directly. it will give you a better, more square shape for your living room. then it would become easier to design with wallpaper and textures. i suggest bringing in some air plants to hang by the windows. you can bring in some peppy paintings as well
