HI RinaI do agree I love jewelbox rooms, but I consider them more cosy ... and with a grey marble floor it goes all Versace Italianate! I am trying to balance the colours by bringing in a pattern on the covers rather than plain. I feel this will bring colour without overpowering the room. In the pictures I showed above, the rooms are basically neutral but the colour is brought in via pattern - I think this might be the way to go...Ideally a green or blue on a subdued grey would be the best, but I dont know what the market is like for Sumit...Cushions can do a lot to tie in the other white/grey elements.Shelley - navy is a good suggestion, but as Sumits area is quite tall and thin, trying to keep the general area light Any more suggestions most welcome. These are just ideas after all and Sumit will choose what works for the room in the end ;-)

I think the work triangle will be off if the sink is far a way from the main kitchen(is that what you are thinking) Why not take the wall out from the utility room and run the cabinets into there and and make a long U shaped kitchen with out the small peninsula with sink and leave the bedroom as is because once you start this the doorway into the kitchen will have to be moved and a 10 x13 kitchen will really not have enough room for any thing except some stools somewhere for mini dining. I would get a counter depth fridge and build it into the far right hand wall in the utility room with a bank of pantries on either side of the fridge and then your sink on the wall next to the bath rooms. So this would look like a galley kitchen with the pantries and fridge at the end .

A dark chockate brown and white or grey work well. or dark chockoate n light brown. if you go thro my projects , there is a study unit . the white n brown combination has been used there.

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.
