Wow! red or maroon are very strong colours. Without knowing your tastes, your furniture, your flooring your walls or even your artwork, it is very hard to give you advice. Red - strong, vibrant, passionate, hot. Works with most wood colours except a cherry wood which has reds in it. Works with the non-colours - black, white, grey. Works with high saturation colours and clashing colours such as turquoise or hot pink. Maroon - muted, calming, moody, dark. Works with most wood colours except possibly black which would be dark on dark. Works with muted colours best of the same tone category: olive green, yellow ochre. Likes gold and silver. More elegant

thanks all for replies. I want to highlight the wall as rest walls are almost white and need some change. there are white tiles on the floor, red sofa set and mostly brown furniture. I have planned to give a grey texture on the front wall (hoping it will look nice with red sofa). the wall beneath the light( in the photo) will continue to be white. though I would like to highlight it in some way as I have kept a box console in the photo above which a round mirror will be hanged. pls suggest

Though I voted for the wood panels Its not the always that case it depends upon design to design. To choose any one will be injustice for other design.

Hey Vikram, Either choose Rajasthan black or Tan brown Granite for your staircase. Best combination with beige tiles
