I stumbled upon this great website a few weeks ago that is helping me try to decide an allover color scheme for the new apartment, or at least the kitchen/diningroom/livingroom space since they’re all open to each other. My top color scheme right now is this….

based on this picture I found.

And this pendant lamp is now in the running…

So obviously I’m not painting the walls dark plum (although if I owned my own home…) and unfortunately I do not have that wonderful mustardy couch. But I like the colors. I’m pretty set on light grey walls and these colors would work well with it. Also, I like the small accent of the cobalt blue. The bathroom has new cobalt blue tile in it that you’ll probably see most of the time with the door slightly open, so I need whatever color scheme we use to be able to work with that color. And I like that there’s no red. I kind of hate red right now. I’m shunning red. Shun. Unshun. Reshun. (The Office anyone??)

A few more color schemes to come!!
