This is the room in question the furniture will be replaced with a creamy white suite but the carpet will also go when the new furniture arrives

I've just been looking at your colours, I think the Dulux Dieskau would work the best with the other colours you have to work with, choosing colours is such a personal thing and I know it can be really hard to choose and hope you make the correct choice. Oskuee is right, a paint job can look terrible half way through so you need to make sure you finish to get the proper look of colour. But the biggest thing to remember is it's only paint and it's the cheapest thing to change so if your not happy with the colour you choose you can always try something else. Happy redecorating :)

I love Julie and Big reader's comments. I would change the window treatment to soft colourful curtaining and incorporate the suggestions already made. I like your coffee table and tv unit together btw. And a nice bit of artwork could pick up the curtain colour.

More Carpet pics. Only my only 2 favorite options are shown in the photos. As you can see different spaces = different shades visible. I should add that our staircase and upper floor will be carpeted. Ground floor is mostly tile - only a kids/multi-purpose room and bedroom will be carpeted. These rooms sit next to tiled spaces.
