Never been a fan of matching lighting exactly, but instead suggest coordinating the pendants with your current fixture. You don't have to stick to ball-shaped either and can maybe go with a tubular shape. If you're hubby is stuck on chrome, maybe a chrome tube would work... if you want more glass, we also carry a line of pendant lighting and I'm sure you'll find something to go with it or atleast give you an idea.

If I understand you correctly, the sliding doors are 'part' of the feature wall, which is to be painted navy. Therefore, the door and all of its parts should also be painted navy so that it blends into the remainder of the feature wall. Is that essentially what you are asking? If so, then bigreader and I concur: navy it is! It sounds beautiful...I hope you will post pics when it's complete...I would love to see it.

Hi Jayrees, I totally agree with what Kat had to offer, I would suggest a non geometric pattern on the rug as the floor is already geometric, a light colour and subtle pattern if you prefer a pattern. The mirror should definitely be moved and I would consider a large light print to compliment the new rug and and drapes. It's a pity that the window screen blocks the view (it's a nice view) but the heavy screen is a necessity these days, I would remove the stickers from the glass to help with the openness. Just noticed that you have an air con in the room so you may be able to remove the screen.

Step/Wall lights are another option, instead of a pendant. We have them on our staircase and it provides sufficient light.
