Unfortunately, I donâÂÂt have a sample board of the treatment, to use for testing. It would make it so much easier. I do make them now. IâÂÂm afraid I canâÂÂt imagine the warm gray glaze. I want to neutralize the pink a bit, but am having a hard time visualizing how adding gray tones would go with the warm wood colors. I thought of adding in some of the bottom color, but blue-green + pink equals some shade of purple (!) If I remember correctly, adding the complementary color would tone down the intensity. Which for pink, would be a green with a touch of yellow, right? There ARE a few touches of ochre: I added a bit a few years back when I hung some pictures with ochre toned mats. IâÂÂm concerned that if I use an overall ochre glaze, though, it will make the wall look âÂÂdirty.â IâÂÂm thinking now of adding some by pouncing with a dry sponge and a small amount of the diluted ochre color mixed with water. I could build it up gradually so as not to go too far all at once.

The counter top has ALL THE COLOUR OPTIONS you could ever want. I would pick the pale/blond tones that match the colour in the counter top (not the cream colour...but the next "darker" tone of gold/orange). Any blonde wood look will work. I know the visuals of "beech" or "birch" will work very well with these cabinets. Simply find a vinyl product that works in those natural blonde wood tones. Done. Done. And done.

"oak trim clashes with everything". why is painting it now not an option?? it's the one thing in that room that doesn't go w/anything. painting all that baseboard white, as well as the trim, will look so much better. The staircase could also look 10X better with either a new stain, or paint it black. at the very least, do the risers in black or white. Using your rug as a jump-off point, here are some other decor elements. you could use your camel leather sofa, ottoman, and just add some other black/white elements. Gravity is a purple gray. you need to find more of a neutral gray shade that works w/the flooring. (but you'll still need to paint out that trim! ) . Crushed ice is a nice gray, but very light. I love these color combos in your room. they would look great w/your wood ceiling and white trim if you feel you have to have orange trim work and baseboards, try a warmer gray in this color family. bring in some other warmer shades, as long as they work w/the gray floor. also, if you want to keep all the wood along the stairs, it might be worth stripping off the clear coat finish. over time, the clear coat yellows, giving you the orange tint. if you took it back to raw wood and finished it in the same tone of your ceiling, it might look a bit better. but I'd still do the baseboards in white. Here they are against a polished concrete. so much better looking. notice the oak in more of a natural finish. your could look like this.
