We spotted this room in Benjamin Moore's color forecast for 2010, and it reminded us of our love for a deep red-orange paired with gray or cream. The "cream" in this room actually has a hint of green in it, and the gray is slightly brown, which gives the colors a little bit of an edge.
These colors are carried through, in variations, throughout the accessories and furnishings, which Benjamin Moore helpfully details in their resource list for the room. A few of our favorite details are listed below.

Shaw's Original Fir...
There are no words for how much I hate this color combo... except on creamsicles. Yay creamsicles.
I think it's pretty. Creamsicles aren't that color.
Beautiful color combo...colorful in an understated way.
Creamsicles, this color?
Fail.
I frakking LOVE this but I'm biased. It's the same colour scheme in my kitchen.
I like these colors individually and with other colors, but together, it just falls flat to me.
I agree with fairydogmother. This looks lifeless to me, though I feel like I do like the colors, especially the orange. And I don't think it looks anything like creamsicles. It looks more like creamy tomato soup to me.
While I could not live in this space myself with the colour scheme I certainly can appreciate it and think it is absolutely lovely!
I have to agree with patrick (the other one)...on the #FAIL...but then I never did like creamsicles.
I agree with the folks who say this falls flat.
I think this color scheme would look great with a turquoise accent...
I kinda like it, deep rich pink without being pepto or hot pink which I hate.
Would love this color and trim in a dining room with dark wood furniture. Its warm without being too aggressive. I like the shade of off-white greenish trim, too.
I think it's the room decor, not the color combo that make this setting lifeless.
I agree -- the colour combo is lifeless.
It kind of reminds me of my heath dinnerware, taupe with orange/red!
My wife and I really liked this and went to pick up samples.
In my opinion, on my computer, the green/gray in the picture comes off as sandier.
The sample we put on our walls leans a lot closer to a true green.
I think this would work better with more of a creme personally.
