Help needed for living room ideas!

hace 10 años

I want to re-paint and lighten up our living room. It faces north and gets little light. The carpet is a medium steel blue and, unfortunately, needs to stay. I would like to keep the couch - beige with tiny almost invisible flecks of blue and pink. The oak woodwork also needs to stay,although we will definitely remove the wallpaper border. Any thoughts on colors for walls?

Blue carpet needs to go.
Wallpaper border needs to go then paint the area same color as the walls.
Trim that defines the border needs to go.
Paint ceiling trim white.
Probably all trim should be white including doors.
Time to recover furniture.

Hola MONICA: Gracias por explicarte. Si no te obstinas por poner fotos tuyas variadas y pequeñás, puedes encargar un vinilo autadhesivo, con una imagen de la más alta definición, que haga tu instrumento, o comprar alguna en un banco de imágenes. Procuras que la parte alta izquierda sea lo más neutra posible y pegas la imagen sobre el paramento completo, incluso sobre el frente del split. El resto, puedes hasta pintarlo a spray del color que requiera, para camuflarse mejor.

The benefits of cassette air conditioning units https://www.airconditionersductless.com/ · Based on the fact that cold air falls, cassette a/c units which are mounted on ceilings ensure that the air is well distributed in the room. These air conditioning units have very powerful fans which can ensure that air is circulated in a larger space compared to other air conditioning units. · Because cassette air conditioning systems are usually mounted in the ceiling, basically floating or false ceiling, cassette a/c units do not consume essential space. · The condenser of the cassette air conditioning unit is typically located outside the building. As a result, a cassette a/c unit doesn’t make any noise, and this makes it the perfect choice for businesses and residential buildings. · Another benefit of a cassette air conditioner is its programmable thermostat and variable speed fan. This means that the user can adjust the room temperature, which helps in saving electricity bills. · Cassette air conditioners have been proven to be very energy efficient. The disadvantages of cassette air conditioners · Because cassette air conditioning units are mounted on the ceiling, it means that their compressors are situated outside. In large buildings, the distance between the air conditioning unit and the compressor can be relatively long, and this means that many holes should be drilled in the walls during installation. This can be costly and time-consuming. · If a person is considering to install a cassette air conditioning unit in the office or warehouse, it would mean that the individual needs more than one air conditioning unit. This can significantly increase the cost. · If a person lives in a building with many storeys or runs his or her business in a building with many storeys, the person is not guaranteed that the ceilings in the building will have sufficient space to allow the installation of a cassette a/c unit. If there is no sufficient space, then you can be forced to choose other types air conditioners, which cannot be energy efficient and silent like cassette air conditioners. However, before a person chooses an air conditioner, be it for business or residential building, they should ensure that they seek professional advice as this ensures that they get an air conditioner which suits his or her need.

I can appreciate your parameters you need to stay within. Depending on your over all style, there are ways to update with the saying, "if you can't beat them, join them". Try a wall color with a soft yellow base such as Benjamin Moore's 206 Winter Yellow or similar. Stick a few (no more than 3 to 4) paint chips into the oak trim on the wall and start narrowing down which ones are the definite no's. As for your sofa, see if its feasible to have slip covers made, other wise solid pillows and a solid throw will help tone it down. Hope that helps :)
