After a long way, today I went through my StudioM appointment picking out all kinds of colors. Only thing is, I've returned home, plugged those colors in to some sample scenes, and, well... they just don't work!
All through the appointments I got the same kind of thing from everyone, insisting on rather conservative, traditional colours - the same dull earth tones you see everywhere. I reluctantly gave in at the time, but now that I've looked at it a bit more, it just won't work with what I plan to put in my home.
Why are people so conservative and persistant with these same old-fashioned colors?
For example, what I've ended up is with a Dulux (A192) Beige Royal Half for the Walls, and Quarter for the doors, Dulux (B1) Natural White on the ceiling.
That I could deal with on its own, but then when it came to blinds, it was all about matching it; even attempts to contrast rather than match weren't really something to work with.
For example, this has worked in the room I type this from for years:

Is this just going to continue to be a problem - a lack of creativity or wanting to make every house look traditional and contemporary rather than bright and cheery?
