You can work with your currant wall color or go more yellow - that is up to you. If you do decide to go more yellow. get some small inexpensive sample bottles at the paint store, paint some poster board and hang it on a wall for couple of days because getting the right buttery yellow can be hard. A soft yellow and lavender is pretty together but I also like the sea green. When you said a combo of modern and cottage - that made me think of beach cottages, which often have soft colors (including sea green) and unfussy, calm interiors. You can put a large painting up if you have the wall space for it. Many bedrooms have tall chest, dresser mirror, tall headboard and big TV, all which take up wall space. If you can hang the painting without it being crowded by any of the things I mentioned, it should look very nice. If you wish to do a curtain fabric treatment to a wall and you have the vision of what you want - then go for it. I had a friend who did that in collage - only problem was the yards and yards of fabric needed got rather expensive. So, I would start with finding bedding you love. Simple white is good, and not too expensive. However, you might find something else light that you love, or a quilt or throw for the bottom of the bed and the colors and shades might lead you in a different direction for wall color or accents. So bedding first, then curtains, then see how your wall color is and then add accents and art - although your painting can also be an inspiration for colors.

Hi Debika, Congratulations on you new flat. If you re planing to do the decor yourself.. take it easy as it is a process and can get overwhelming. I really liked the flooring of your room. However the curtains, yellow wall and sofa colors don't go with each other. The easiest and budget friendly option would be to color the yellow wall the same color as other walls. White walls make room look bigger and brighter. Also the entry door looks like opposite to yellow wall, which is the narrower part of the room so such strong color will be in the face which I don't personal like. On the yellow wall (after you re-paint it) you can add a narrow full length mirror (floor to ceiling or 2/3 pieces to cover the distnce) plain or something in cutout pattern right in front of the door would add depth to the wall. (I am assuming the yellow wall will have TV on it). The curtains can be replaced with sheer off-white curtains with some delicate golden brown designs, they look dreamy and open..again makes room look bigger and brighter. Adding white with orange or grey (printed) throw pillows will look good on the sofa. On the empty strip of wall next to windows, a open sleek bookshelf (open on 3 sides ) would look good. You can put some photos or painting as well and make it into a gallery wall. White/ Golden frames and photos with white borders would look good. I think the top-down grid kind of gallery would look good here. A slim glass table with golden legs accompanied by a heliconia palm plant in white tall pot or woven basket pot would look great in the space between the entrance door and sofa,..it would add some green. You can also add a slim table with Metal Golden legs at the corner. The center table looks bulky, instead you can go in for a simple coffee table...glass top with sleek legs (can be same as the side table next to sofa). That would not occupy too much visual space. Long Term design goals if any ..can be something on the lines of.... Incase you plan to change on the sofa you can always go for a cobalt teal blue sectional. Also you can eventually replace the cubbies on yellow wall with some open lean shelving options. The TV unit can also be little shorter in length.

that is what i have added if you can see the pic above.. want some suggestions on partition that i can use between dining and sitting

Zet Lee, It is a typical example of proportions going wrong. We often pick up an image and replicate it with personal tweaks but thanks to limited foresight of workers we end up landing elsewhere. Anyways, curtains ideally should have a very small role to decide the furniture finishes. Furniture is permanent upholstery changes every couple of years. IMHO, upholstery should compliment the furniture and not the other way round. If the laminates are already procured then can you accommodate any changes suggested? Let us know. There are a few issues visible. The bed does not have a central support and please also make sure you have a plan for electric board on the left side of the bed shouldn't land up on the back cushions.
