I would paint the entire fireplace including the mantel, all trim and shelving white. I like the Whisper White, but you must bring the paint samples into the room to see for yourself. The sheen on all woodwork should be semi-gloss, easy cleaning and looks crisp. I agree with painting the walls and I would paint the part above the mantel the same color as the walls, Summer Hue is beautiful, but once again I have no idea how that would look in your room. The walls should be flat most brands make a fairly easy to clean flat. If the fireplace were the focal point of the room, it could look very cool and dramatic to paint it a very dark gray almost black. But at least in this picture it seems that the entertainment/shelving unit is the focal point. hmm .... better stop while I am ahead.

Buy a credenza for the TV so you don't end up with chronic head and neck pain from having your head tilted back in an unnatural angle. Find a nice picture or other piec of art work that reflects your personality to go over the mantle. Take some more pictures of the room so we can see it from more angle, and can offer you more help.

Hi Nishi, Beautiful furniture and a very cute cosy nest you have. To begin with replace your existing coffee table with a hard wood simple coffee table. Replace your cushions with an assortment of pink, turquoise and golden yellow in different sizes and shapes, this will add some brightness to the room.Replace the pictures on the wall with a big mirror as per the wall size and add a nice frame to it. On the shelf on the picture wall place the candle stands currently on the centre table. The stools can be replaced with a nice upholstered ottoman bench in a printed fabric as sofa is plain. Cover the entry door with curtains as well so that it gives an illusion of a single wall behind. Since the wall behind the bench is already textured do not put anything on the wall. Remove the white bench there, instead put two big white teracotta pots there of different height and put bamboos on it. Finally put a blue/brown shaggy rug below the coffee table to complete the look. Hope you find the suggestions useful. Also you could put a few glass shelfs on the wall behind the 3 seater and place all your small knick knacks on displayLike how I have done on my wall

Hi Gaurav, I suggest you rid of some things. It looks so cluttered. 1. Change the curtains. the seat covers on the sofa need to go. 2. The part of stereo, vase , dolls and clock ... need to do something here. I am going to suggest minimal change - remove the clock, its not matching any element in the room. Remove the vase, also, the cloth on the mantle doesnt look good, remove that too.the dolls and stero also dont look great but if u insist keep t there. 3.The painting near the fridge doesnt match any element of the room. The pink colour on the walls dont match any element of the room. Since you might want to keep the carpet, why don't you change the wall colours ? Then get rid of the things i mentioned.Not able to see the other corner near the bed like thing.Also, the covers on the bed like thing need to go too - they need to match something.. . atom INTERIORS, Bangalore
