Wall paint for bedroom with gray carpet?

by on Sep 5, 2007

We are finally moving into a lovely apartment with institutional white walls and standard grey (bleh) carpeting in most of the space.  Since I need to buy bedroom furniture quickly, I’m starting with the bedroom.  

We’ve gotten the ok to paint the walls-just nothing terribly dark.  Also the bedroom is not enormous so it would be swallowed by a dark color. 

I’ve been considering a blue/grey that almost matches the carpet so I can be playful with furniture and accents.  For bedroom furniture, I’m considering either a brown/black bedframe with headboard or going light with a brushed silver wrought iron frame.  So I guess the biggest question is do I match the grey and then be playful with the rest of the room, or go a little more bold with the walls?

I’m open to either suggestions, images in either direction!  Oh and I apologize for the photo angle!

Thanks!
