I need advice for wall and window treatment color?
I have a tan sofa and burgundy red chair. I have an area rug (room size) in a somewhat traditional pattern of burgundy red, tan, gold and some Turquoise blues. My woods are dark mahogany. My walls are currently a light beige with milk chocolate trim, and the doors are dark chocolate brown. my current window treatments are roman shades in a paisley that is shades of tan, brown, reds, and blues (I made them). I am thinking of a light turquoise blue for the walls and a darker turquoise for drapes over the roman shades. Room is small. I am trying to go from a slightly traditional look to a somewhat contemporary look. Any suggestions, or critiques?
play around with the Sherwin Williams color visualizer to find something that you like. It is the best paint visualizer on the web, imho. I like how their color palette is laid out, I like that you can search by color family & color name, the "painted" rooms look the most realistic, and it suggests coordinating color schemes. You can literally spend hours:

I think a gray wall color like "gibraltar" (# 6257) would look terrific with the turquoise curtains. IMHO, if you were to do two tones of turquoise it would be a bit too much.
You can also take a photo of your house & upload it to the makeover gallery on this website:

You can get color suggestions & they'll photoshop them onto your room so that you can get an idea of what it will look like.
