I also have a couple of 30 year old pine dressers. I recently painted the smaller, more battered one white, with navy blue drawer fronts and changed out the wooden knobs for porcelain ones. The other dresser was in better condition, so I left the top and legs as is, but painted the rest matte black. Looks great with the original brass hardware! Very pleased with both, so don't feel like you have to work around the pine for the rest of your room.

You may use a specific light in the grey on the wall were there are two windows. While the other wall with a long slim window has a wall feature design. There are numerous features to use, with the intension that it would be on the same colour contrast. As was mentioned that the blinds would be great sprayed though in a colour that will go with the walls colour and design. Need to be a balance in the colours for both walls and the blinds. You may use one wall with wallpaper feature if you prefer. I have found a site that may assist you with the design of your choice. http://colorhunter.com/; http://www.resene.com.au/wallpaper/#

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

It is impossible to say without seeing the unit and understanding the natural light and the other colours. I would check out this link from Dulux, then run down to Bunnings to get some samples. https://www.dulux.com.au/colour/whites-and-neutrals/most-loved.html Dulux Vivid White always works well on 1960's trims and doors, but it would be too clinical for walls.
