16th September 2011 Cat: Modern Dining Chair with 3 Comments

The rest of the house has been painted this very light pale yellow. When you walk in the front door there is a double door width opening to our living room on the right. Just beyond it is a double door width opening to our dining room. So you can see it from the living room. Our dining room has a white chair rail & the bottom half of it is that pale yellow color throught the rest of the house. I’d like to eventually get walnut/white furniture for the dining area.
We have a modern/contemporoary style & a red sectional in our living room. I was thinking of painting the dining room top half a dark red (not bright, I guess with brown mixed in) & the bottom half white w/ a white chair rail. I was concerned of having too much red tones in these areas. Would it make us feel tense or angry? Or would it flow nicely. I also considered a sage green or orange? It’s just such a scary decision for me since we don’t have a lot of $ to redo it if ugly. Also have khaki carpet in there.

    Red is a warm color, so it will speed up your blood pressure just a little. Orange makes you want to eat, so you might try an orange-red shade, then paint the chair rail and the bottom half off-white. Those colors should work very well with a walnut table.

    I THINK THE RED IDEA IS RIGHT ON THE HEAD….IT PROMOTES THE APPETITE.

    Before you start to paint, consider how you want your rooms to feel and the colors of your furnishings. For the best results with your choices, match the decorative finish to the style of your room.
