That's the first coat of red in the living room. I'm sure I have done something wrong and some other people could do it better for cash etc wah wah internet superheroes.

you have 2 colour options, they could paint others at a cost, or I could do it myself cheaper. I have time, so thought I would just sort it.

Bold dark colours will make the room look smaller, Iv done my accent walls with wallpaper bit more detail than just a big block of colour.
Chrome sockets and switches will smarten it up a lot too.
Looking good though

There will be stuff to go on the walls later. The bed is going against the colour wall so that will break that up anyway. Will update as the rooms get sorted out. Living room feels warmer, even though the heating wasn't on. Haven't worked out how it works yet pmsl.

Chrome switches are a bloody nightmare for fingerprints. I replaced mine and now end up wiping them all the time. They do look nice though.

Going to change one of the double sockets for one with usb also so I can just plug things in to charge need no adapters. Probably won't change the other switches really. Can't say I noticed a switch, unless it doesn't work.

Tell you something, figuring out what light fixings to put in is hard work. Some awesome weird designs out there.
