Hi Priya Arun, You posted this on 5th May, so probably this is coming in late. You certainly have a dilemma. Without any info as to the location of your home I'll stick my neck out and say go with Mediterranean for the same reasons you mention — the muted colours of the sea and sand, plus the contemporary style of furniture. I would not personally treat each floor/area in the house in a different style, as you say it may be a bit jarring. However that should not prevent you from introducing a piece or two of furniture for instance a comfortable wing chair or a carved wood accent table. I think the Houzz site can give you ideas for any of the themes you go with.

Hi, I would suggest changing the furniture fabric first and formost, go for a solid colour say white, offwhite, grey or even brown, and use colourful cushions which you may keep changing. A light yellow more like a dull yellow with wall accessories will look great on the walls. . For the flooring , please use wooden laminates and repolish the ceiling (as i see is a lovely wooden ceiling ) to a similar shade. Change the curtains to a breezy white curtains. Avoid curtains on the door. Reduce the clutter and you have a wow living room . For more ideas you may use our edecor services , just mail us at snsofdesign@gmail.com with the above reference .

Hi, I am from Assam, Guwahati. Yes it is warm humid place with lot of rains (like kerala). The bookcase is gradually drying. Fortunately last few days were very sunny and airy and my room has two big windows. Few mor details of my bookcase. It is 8 feet wide, 6 feet tall and 11 inch deep. It was attached with wall with 6 wall screw and has four pair of legs.I ask the carpenter to divide the bookcase into 3 part (32 inch each) and two door system for each part. Every part has 6 shelve from top to botom. There is no plywood or wood in back. I made it that way because the bookcase is attached in my room's inner wall I understand that the bookcase may have very little gap in between wall and wooden planks and i am ready for it. But I have no idea that beacuse of faulty mesurement, it became 1 inch gap between wall and sheve in the upper side. In lower side it is very minimum gap. I stop the carpenters to put the glass door. But now I see that they also make fault in making the doors. The doors are heavier that the shelf. The wooden planks are 1 inch thick while the door are 1.1/2 inch thick. I actually visit few hardwere shops here, but most have no ideas what to do and few says to apply wall putty to fill the gap. But my back wall is coloured (old wall, that why) and wall putty will not set on old wall and timber. I cannot remove it now from the wall otherwise the wall may destroyed. I really need a step by step guide now that what to do after the heves are dry, how to fil the gap and how to put the door without further damaging the shelf.

I select these colours with the help of other houzzer and expert professional advice and discussion. I also got help from colour paint catalogue. Is it looking good or not? Is there any problem with these colours and their combination. Please guide me in this regard.
