Light vs. Dark

Maybe it's the crappy weather we're having in Vancouver lately but I've been toying with the idea of painting my bedroom walls charcoal grey.  I'm usually all about light and bright but I've got a bedroom with very little natural light.  When you're dealing with a room that's dark you can try all sorts of pale wall colours and it won't make it feel brighter, it will actually come across dull and lifeless.  Embracing a dark room by going darker on the walls will make it feel cozier while giving much more impact to the overall feel of the space.  Now I just need rope the hubby into a painting weekend:)


I'm thinking Palais Royal by Ralph Lauren
