If you want to highlight the staircase wall then your could use earthy colours such as a yellow ochre! The wall could be enhanced even more by using suitable frames and making a good collage composition for all the photos that you have (I can see many lying on the dining table). This colour would match well with wooden furnitures

For each bathroom choose a neutral color that U see in the tile Here is how to find the perfect wall paint "match" http://www.lindaholtinteriors.com/2011/07/testing-wall-color-101/

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.

We are located in the Pacific Northwest and want to update our office and shop. Inside our walls are tan with tan tile and the horrendous golden oak doors and trim.
