Hi Spencer, A Par 20 lamp is too long to be aimed at wall art in a 4" housing. It won't pivot enough without hitting the side of the can. How did you aim at the walls with what you have now? Nora must be including a short whip with the slot aperture trim to convert to a line voltage GU10 base MR16 because that type of slot aperture trim only works with small lamps like the MR16. Check on the adjustment range for the trim and wattage limit with the combination. You may be limited to 35 watts. To dramatize and call attention to something accent lighting needs to boost the lumens on the subject well above the surroundings to bring your eye to it. You may need to dim the center fixture to help compensate so that the art stands out if I understand the look you want of spotted paintings glowing more intensly than the surroundings rather than the general wash of light you have now. Different brands and styles of trims have different ranges of adjustments. Normally the slot aperture has the largest of the adjustment ranges and may go to 40 or 45 degrees without blocking the lamp so this should be a good choice. Other trims claim 35 or more degrees but may partially block the lamp.

I think you could a copper finish, like this rustic darker copper: ORB, antique brass, or even a black. get a new address plaque I would repaint some of the trim, or the fascia (or trim around the windows) in a darker color (the ones listed on the last pic I posted) here is a door painted SW Iron Ore. looks great w/your brick or maybe when you redo your portico, have some natural cedar or redwood used, stain it a darker tone, and go w/that. would basically be these two tones together. To me this bright white against your brick and siding really doesn't fit in. If you pair the dark tones with more of a creamy white, it would look better w/your brick color here's a warmer brick, similar to yours, with no white anywhere. I love it. bring in color w/your landscaping. redo the flower beds w/colors that enhance your brick and should you ever decide to lime wash, it's not going to 'devalue' your home! lol. I mean, seriously? using the correct products will enhance so that your home doesn't look like every other home in the neighborhood. your choice Doing a very light lime wash, paired w/other choices that fit the coloring/style, give you a whole new look but if you want to stick w/paint, and are thinking of that patina green shade, pick something on this end of the spectrum found a combo w/your color brick. they have it paired w/this brown stain color on the shingle roof (but if you did any type of wood, this stain color would work) and the 3 paint colors. no white.

Max, is the space at the far end at side of stairs a”dead end” space with no opening under stairs? Either way I’m thinking the wall hooks would be better at that end rather than right at bottom of stairs.Maybe cooat hooks & shoe racks there too. The big wall along that aisle is great spot for big art as Lyn Nielson suggests. A mirror could go where the hooks are now.

@Maddy Jens congrats on the house it looks beautiful! I grew up in a 1929 bungalow with no formal entry. Your new space looks like there may be room for an entry to the right as you walk in. A bench (with storage) below the window and a thin profile console table with mirror on the wall to the right of the opening to the dining room? The fireplace seems to be the focal point of the room. Keep a couch with or without chaise add-on on the wall and perhaps round coffee table with two chairs facing the couch? If you need desk space that could go where the rocker is now, against the wall perpendicular to the fireplace wall. Beautiful house! Enjoy making it your own :)
