Looks like a small space. Gray lest her with chrome legs sofa 2 sestertius. Think scale. Place sofa to look at view or a TV.? Not sure what room is used for? Get 2 swivel chairs in a fabric print. Yellow and gray works. No rug over rug. Never lays right. A black small 20" round metal coffee table. Lamps in stainless with white shades with end tables buy sofa. If TV a long low media in black or white. Ikea, go there for all your needs. Good price, and some great art. There is the London underground 40" for over sofa. Hang all art 6-7" above top of furn. Keep it low, clean sleek lines. Not too big. On windows gray and white print panels on ends of windows only. Ikea. Hang on a black rod. They should touch the floor. Accessories on coffee and other tables. Tall pots in black, grey, yellow. Teal, or blue green works with gray also. Keep sofa always a solid color and chairs can be a contemporary design. Use only one accent color in a small room. Carry same accents to other rooms to tie together.

@Karen Hodge, I hear you!! Sometimes I think the estate agent should carry quite a bit of the blame actually. If they do their job correctly like you see in the adds on TV, they should bring these discrepancies to the attention of the sellers, stand on their morals and say if you can't get it better than this, then you'll have to find someone else to sell your home!! I know you can't make everybody "house proud" but the saying "do unto others" springs to mind. I bet if these same people bought a house not up to scratch, "a current affair" would hear about it but they don't think it wrong to simply walk out on a house that isn't being left nicely for the next family!! I have some friends that recently sold a house in Essendon, Melb and whilst the buyers were back and forth selling their own home, my friends kept watering the plants and even did things like painted out the wardrobes because of the scuff marks made over time!! They cleaned the entire two storey house from top to bottom and finished by mopping the floors as they were exiting. The buyers were so taken by the entire home, they bought it with almost all the furniture that my friends had in it!!

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 :)

Price check everything before deciding. Many people take too much advice from salespeople who want to sell you just what they have. A solid timber flooring isn't really that much more than a timber floating floor. I've found the cost difference is having the solid floor sanded and polished, oiled, etc. only. There is some quite expensive floating floor options and some really cheap ones. Buyer beware!
