The first thing I would do is switch your light fixture to track lighting. That way you can focus the light onto that wall much like what is done in an art gallery. I also think that may stop the reflection you are getting. I think putting cabinets on the long wall will really close in the space. I would make your red wall your gallery wall. I'd frame everything in white so they "pop" off the wall. The problem with the other wall being the gallery wall is that it's just to narrow. You can't really stand back far enough to see the art.

What emotion do you want to feel in the room? Calm? Energized? Happy? What colors do you associate with the emotion you want to have in the room? Choose a bed covering first. It is much easier to match paint to a bed covering than it is to try to find a bedcover to match paint.
