Re: WHAT COLOR IN COMPUTER ROOM?

@sarahpanda...........We can tell you what we would do or think but you wont be truly happy unless you do what you like and really want. So what if it does not look like a designer showcase? If you like it that is all that matters.

Do what you want and you will be happy with the results.

@PickyPicky3I haven't actually picked out the berber carpet yet - but I was thinking I might find one with a beige base and maybe tiny specks of color in it - and pick up one of those colors for the walls...jury still out..(such a hard job for me )


@sarahpandaI would stick with a neutral beige color and paint an accent wall one of the colors from the specks. LIke another poster suggested having a wall as a background for any streaming, zoom, skype etc. would be nice. My DH has a blue wall as a background in his office.

Re: WHAT COLOR IN COMPUTER ROOM?

If you DO chose color like light blue or green, when color paint is applied in the room, it seems one shade darker because of the high volume.

Paint the room one tint lighter.

Re: WHAT COLOR IN COMPUTER ROOM?


@sarahpandawrote:

I have a bedroom that I am converting to a 'computer,study' room...I was thinking about berber for the rug since it's a low pile - but interior decorator that I am not, I don't know what color to go with the berber rug and walls. I know this is a loaded question but if you can help in any way, thanks in advance. I don't know what is fashionable these days.


I came across Accessible Beige by Sherwin Williams a couple of years ago. First used it in my family room. Liked it so much I've now painted my living room, dining room, powder room, guest bedroom with bathroom, and most recently my kitchen, pantry and laundry room. It's so neutral, goes with just about everything and love how sometimes its's more gray and sometimes it's more beige.
