      I love the idea of dark colors. An idea might be to consider a forrest green to being in some colors from the trees since the windows are so large. It would give one the impression that mother nature likes your choices. Just an idea.

    Phil, I suggest before you make a final decision that you remove all the stuff that will not be in the finished room. Once all the distractions are gone you may have a better chance at seeing how it could look and it may make it easier for you to make a decision.

    I’m a person that likes light and airy rooms with sunny and warm colours. That being said, the size of that room with its tall ceilings could certainly handle dark colours and the examples you showed were very dramatic looking. It really comes down to YOUR personal taste, Phil, and I definitely get the feeling you gravitate to darker colours.

  • @sailingwhitsundays5672
    @sailingwhitsundays5672 2 місяці тому +29

    Phil if you go dark in that bedroom consider a deep charcoal / midnight sky hues. Black is a colour hard to pull off on its own, the light in there will dictate what you do in there. The mirror is your hero, its size & balance is stunning. Looking forward to this reno.

    Phil may I suggest a dark gray, black is a depressing color. Dark gray would be more in the realm with the Chateau.
    I do like the idea of a dressing room. We're you planning a large bath on the other side?

    Definitely ditch the pale froufrou - dark, rich colours will make that big room feel more cosy and elegant and opulent and don’t be frightened of some more modern pieces. Less is more even in a big room so get most of those wardrobes out and move all of the storage to your dressing room

    The suggestions for a darker themed bedroom are spot on, plenty of shades of dark colors. You seem fond of the red so a dark blue based gray or even a deep navy or plum would look fantastic.

  • @kimchatwin-smith891
    @kimchatwin-smith891 2 місяці тому +3

    Great Choice Phil ..
    Couple of suggestions
    1. Use a gloss white on the ceiling to the ceiling edge of the architraves this will help bounce light during the day when it's overcast.
    2. Paint walls semi gloss
    3. Paint the architraves and details in e actly the same colour - but go for high gloss.
    4. Make sure the Gray you choose is a Warm Gray, so that it has life in it, or it will feel very depressing, and won't tome well with the rich caramel colour bed accessories.
    These examples work because they are using the texture of the items as "colour" ... and the fittings, eg, glass sconces, are not tizzy ... have fun ask Micheal Petherick to help you with the styling... he has a good eye.

    I love the drama that you create with dark colors like you've shown. My only thought is age appropriate color. Forgive me, I don't remember the age of the Chateau but what typically works well naturally is choosing a color from a palette they would have had at the time it was originally decorated. Whether it's a Navy or Deep Green or another color - then the features you like about the room most: the high ceilings, big windows with view, and that amazing mirror over gorgeous fireplace will stand out extra well. If you've the means I think you should just go for it Phil! Make it a space you love - dressing room & en suite as well. PS - not to embarrass Lightning too much but my cat plays fetch better than he does 🤫🤭....he looked so ecstatic, good puppy! 🥰

  • @KT_37
    @KT_37 2 місяці тому +5

    In the paint stores in the US we have paint cards where it goes from very light to dark. Find a one you like that goes from light to dark. For the bathroom go the light end of the card so it keeps the room a little brighter and easier to see. For the bedroom go the really dark color. Dressing room pick a color in the middle.
    As a bonus grab several of the paint cards for the colors you pick. Then you can take those with you when you go to pick out things like towels, bedding etc. Lay the card on the item and decide do you like the combination.
    I think you should go with a really dark green color for the bedroom to.

    I agree with opening up the doorways, remove all the extra wardrobes to the changing room and only then decide on the decor of the bedroom. Make moodboards with pictures and samples of colours and textures. Then step back and make you decision. Get your friends over. Billy is fantastic with structural stuff and Michael is fantastic on the colour and decorating stuff. Use your friend's talents (it is not abuse). That is why it is so great that we are all different, we compliment each other. You're always fixing mechanical things for Billy - you have your own talents to contribute.
