Hi I have similar bedroom furniture I went with a feature wall after advice from Bristol store the lady there had interiors experience. She recommended Porters Paint Hampton Blue I was nervous about painting it but she confidently told me that I would love it. After painting it she was spot on it really complements the furniture and has a beautiful depth Hope this helps if you like I can post a photo for you

gorgeous prints and i love the uneven arrangement that looks like you started with one and then added others over time, do you have something (a single bigger print or mirror) for over the bed as well? the prints look good against the dark rug..have you considered painting the walls in a darker colour?

There has been much discussion on white paint on Houzz. See if you can locate some of the older discussions.

That was my point Kate -- I probably didn't express it well . Move the table and chairs towards the garage door / stairs , and it cuts down the flow at that end , and looks jammed in . Someone coming in the front door and along the hall will have to go through the kitchen if someone has left a chair not pushed back under the table ; you come through the garage and slide the door ( not great for noise or heat sealing ) and theres a chair 60cm in front of you ; come out of the WC , along the short hallway , and you do a tight 180 degrees to get around the table and chairs to get to the Rumpus . It is cramped , a compromise . In some respects yours is better than the original design -- the point I was making is that this place is designed as a compromise right from the start , whereas by coming up with an alternative design ( a clean sheet of paper ) it should be possible to start with a minimum of compromises . For example , would swapping the kitchen to the left hand end be better ? This may give more flexibility with the open plan dining and rumpus area ? Could something as simple as swapping the rumpus and the dining work better ? Is the bedroom needed , or is it a guest bedroom used once a year ? Given that the garage most likely needs enlarging , do you enlarge upstairs too ? Or will that go over budget or breach local rules ?
