Be moving to a new apartment soon, have to repaint it and fully furnish it myself.
Furniturewise I am going to see if I can scrounge some old traditional Vietnamese/Chinese dark hardwood stuff and restore it, have done that before to good effect. Should be able to call in some furniture industry contacts for a couch etc.
Paintwise, I dont know much about this sorta stuff, anyone have pics of colors that will work well in a relatively small place (about 70 sq meters/750 sq feet).
Its an open kitchen onto a slightly raised platform living room (probably 55 sq meters). Separate bedroom.
I guess need to keep it to light colors to give illusion of space, but dont just want boring white, and dont want anything too bright and loud. As a general rule Im an earthtones kinda guy, but not sure how that will work in a smaller room...
Any color scheming advice or pics or sites to recommend?
