apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time


Look! Gold Walls + Dark Wood + White Bedding

081908_goldenbedroom.jpgWow. Amazing what paint can do to a room! Our friend and avid AT reader Timmy decided that it was time for him to have a sophisticated bedroom. So, taking matters (and a small budget) in his own hands, he painted the walls of bedroom a beautiful shade of light taupe with a yellow undertones so it bathes the whole room in a lovely golden hue. Timmy stuck to dark espresso pieces (headboard, bookcase, nightstand) and balanced it with delicate clear lamps and bright white bedding. But his best purchase is after the jump...

Thanks for sharing, Timmy!

Looks an awful lot like the paint scheme used on cover of the newest West Elm catalog...

...so what paint color is that?

This is almost exactly the new color scheme I want for for my living room. It's getting painted next month so I'm glad that it will look nice!
