Hi senba, Great suggestions above! Yes, use the wallpaper background... but keep it really,really light blue. It will keep the room homogenous and will retain the softness of your paper. That is going to be a very pretty, very fun room when complete.... please post a picture! Elizabeth Cabell, ASID, CID

Dear Balaji, Tried and tested colour combinations that make wood work stand out will be in contrast to dark brown. You can choose reflective colours like pale yellow, off white.. In Berger Paints you could check out 3P1844 Sauvignon White, 3P1854 Fresh Linen, 7P0185 Fabulous White. Also, the website offers Virtual Colour Painter which you can use by uploading your room photo. Best wishes and regards, Ar. Avni Gor

mostly Indians uses brown varnish paints for their main wooden doors....I even don't know why they didn't use other colors...even in my house doors are given brown color wooden texture...

When dimensioning a classroom or teaching space, the best rule of thumb to produce both good sightlines and efficient layout is as follows: the space needs to be slightly rectangular, but NOT long and narrow. If X = 1, then Y should = 1.2 ideally, and no more than 1.5. Consider a comfortable space of 12 sqft. per student so if you have 6 students in a classroom then 72 sqft. + teaching space and walking space (60 sqft. or more) so say roughly you need 130 - 140 sqft. of space per class.
