“Our house has a basement my husband calls his “man cave”. He is the one to spend the most time there, but occasionally the family and guests are down there to watch movies. He wants to decorate the room in the colors of his alma mater (forest green and gold) and his favorite football team (purple and gold). He’s adamant about the colors, but I don’t see how those colors could possibly work together. If no one ever went down there I wouldn’t care, but I still want to be able to bring friends to the basement and be proud of the decor… Any thoughts on how to make it work?”

“Hi. I live in a small one bedroom condo (600 sq ft) in Arlington. The building is very new, but the living room is small. I have a round glass table table and two custom chairs in the dining area, an Italian leather sofa and a very modern leather chair. I bought a media unit for the TV and to use as storage for books, files, etc., however I find the unit to be too big for the space. The sofa now seems too dark for the room and there is a bit too much leather. Any ideas? Many thanks!”

“I have seen the walls beside sliding glass doors painted a dark shade to frame a view. I was thinking of doing this in my apartment with a medium blue green shade – Ralph Lauren Sanctuary is the paint colour. I have painted my backsplash and island this colour as well. Let me know what you think.”

“I have this beautiful blue Pierre Paulin ribbon chair in my living room with more traditional desks and bookcases. I’m in search of a large sofa and two chairs, the sofa opposite the ivory brick fireplace and the two chairs in front of it. I have ivory silk drapes and tan (sort of grasscloth) wallpaper. I’m stuck for both color choices and styles. Would so appreciate your advice and the advice of your readers. Thanks!”

Hello!

No picture or video from me - just a question for you.  I saw the question about paint and a baby’s room a couple weeks ago, so I thought I’d ask you a paint question about a little girl’s room.  I am in the process of re-doing my 7 year old daughter’s room and she really wants her room to be painted pink.  I want her to be happy, but I’m not a big fan of big pink.  Could you recommend a pink paint color that isn’t too “bubble gum” or “Pepto Bismol”?  Something youthful, but not so bright and fun that in a couple years she won’t like it…

Thanks so much!

Hi Vastu!

A while ago I saw an image of a room painted black and fell in love.  I really want to do it, but I’m afraid. My concern is that while these rooms look moody and intriguing in photos, it might be too much in real life. I sent you all a picture of a black bathroom I found on a blog called Home Interior Design Themes because the room I’m considering painting black is my master bath (though I don’t have the really cool tub).  So, what are you thoughts on painting walls black?  Is it a no, no?

Really looking forward to your thoughts.

Thanks

Hello Vastu Designers!

I recently bought a lamp I loved, only when I got it into my living room and on my side table is was WAY too big.  Well, I’m not going to use the lamp in that room anymore.  What do I need to keep in mind about proportion/size of lamps for side tables so I don’t make the same mistake twice.

Thanks.
