I have a room that is my "studio".........all my computer stuff is in this room as well as where I do a lot of my design work..........well yeah LOL, since my CAD program is on my computer, duh raven LOL

I saw this and thought holy cow, that will work perfect..........so I'm going to take the carpet out of that room, it's the last to have carpet anyway........paint the floor grey and give it a layer of poly..........paint the walls grey, maybe do a little white smudged into the grey....trim a clean white, white plantation shutters.....put that paper on a wall BUT incorporate some kitchen designs......I'll have have the local walmart blow them up to poster size (14"x17") work them into the collage..........then take and tea stain my work table, wooden crates under it and desk..........I think it will look awesome...........................raven

That sounds really nice. Let us know how it turns out.

Not sure about the smudges of white paint on the gray walls but otherwise it sounds great, especially the gray floor.

My daughter would love this. Her online Etsy monogram business has really taken off and she just got a ginormous desk and it looking at paint colors. I think she would go for this. I am addicted to color but I do like blue gray paint. That is about the closest I can get. I think you should do this though!!!

ohhhhhhhhhhh that would work for her too..........I think it's unusual and really eye catching....and I love grey........works well with any accent color, you can put pops of color here and there.........and change those pops with the season........I bought it and will get going on this room next weekend..........I LOVE doing rooms LOL, so I can't wait to start...............................................raven

I don't want a single dimension of color on the walls, the floor yes, the walls no........the white will be smudged in, so that you don't really notice it......but you do..........................................raven

Raven, I think it would be gorgeous. It would look great in my kitchen (or should I say the kitchen in my head) . . . well at least I have the chairs (the chair in that photo are my kitchen chairs). My whole first floor (including the kitchen in my head) are in various shades of gray and taupe with some pops of burgundy (my actual kitchen is avocado green hence I prefer to live in the kitchen in my head). You will have a great space to work in!
