I love the color you have on the wall by the patio doors. I'd go with that all over if you want the space to feel warm. Or, if you want the rooms to feel cooler, you may want to go with sky blue or a calm green. The right shade of green brings in your outdoor plants, which looks very nice when you are looking out through the windows. Your flooring would look fine with any of these choices. Grey is another color to consider. I personally do not like it, yet is is quite popular now, especially with contemporary interiors.

Accessible Beige by Benjamin Moore would be a good beige as it has a slightly pink undertone that would pick up the color in your pillows. I wouldn't go a light blue, as that seems more in keeping with bedrooms, IMO.

It looks like you have wallpaper on the wall behind the sofa. am I right? How many walls are you painting? Post more pictures of the space if you can. My inclination would be to go deeper like BM normandy, black pepper, taos taupe, iron mountain… but hard to say with seeing so little of the actual space.

Hi Jennifer K, thanks for your comments. The photos you have posted are really lovely but not really suited to our environment and house, which I know is impossible to tell from one photo. We have built a modern farmhouse on 10 acres. That room looks out to beautiful green countryside and the river below. The dining room is a bit of a feature and is completely different to the rest of our relaxed lodgey style house but I don't want it to be too modern, if that makes sense. The photos have given me a few ideas so thank you so much for your help!
