I am about to choose a colour for my living room walls. I'd like to use a very pale blue. I mean, a *very, very* pale blue. You might call it a blue- tinted white, almost.
My hope is that this colour will make the room look bigger (cool, light colours recede, etc).
The quesion is, will this tend to make the room look too 'cold' for comfort. I should mention that the carpet and the leather furniture are red, as is the red brick fire surround, so there is a lot of very warm colour in the room to balance out the proposed cold colour of the walls.
Is the abundance of red material in the room likely to offset the coldness of the wall colour? I'm trying to decide on the colour before committing to buying the paint.
Thanks for any views.
