Do not use brown in the living room

If you live in a decent house or apartment and you do not have a huge living room, it is recommended to stay away from brown walls. There are some shades of brown that can be used here, but you have to ask for the advice of a professional. Your interior designer will help you choose the right one. 

“Especially when it comes to smaller spaces, we recommend you stay away from darks hues or browns. Simply put, they can make a space feel overly drab, and in the case of smaller living spaces, make your room feel even smaller,” says John Monte, an interior designer based in Seattle.

You’ll not be hungry for this next color…..

  1. Pink tile bathrooms!
    I had an idea to paint the ceilings in all rooms and halls one color–off-white veined with gold–and use a different color in each room. A color I’d pick for a study, library or man cave was favored by the Romans–a Venetian or brick red, maybe russet ..

    You probably should not paint any exterior surfaces in sea; brown…unless you don’t mind your place being mistaken for a UPS facility.

    I really don’t care what the so called experts like or dislike. They don’t live on n my home so if I want to use rainbow colors every where I will

  4. I enjoy reading the reviews on different things but hate the inserts in between. If I wanted to see a sex scene, I would go to a different site.

    Trump had destroyed this country ! He is seriously mentally ill !! He has some real mental problems ! That man needs help !! I can’t believe the people that are still following him ! That tells me something about their mentality also !!

  6. This also depends upon whose bathroom we’re discussing. In a child’s bathroom, white would be a problem. But I’ve used it in a master bath with fabulous results; white doors, a wall of built in cabinets in white & bath & shower surround & vanity in white Carrera marble. The room had a bright, spacious & relaxing feel.
