The left corner is where the computer will be set up. And we'll probably buy a couple of low bookcases to fit along the back of the sofa.
The colour scheme hubby & I chose for most of the house is red, black and cream. This works beautifully because the walls are all freshly painted cream and we have exposed beams throughout the house that have been painted black.
I have been busy with knitting needles and sewing machine to make some pretty cushions to scatter on the sofa and along the window seat. I have finished two cushions so far, one is a knitted bamboo wool cover, black on one side and a chili pepper shade on the other. The other cover is a red Indian cotton fabric that I picked up at Spotlight. I will post some pics here when I get back to Sydney and take photos.
I digress.
So far there is little furniture in the house, just a black sofa bed in the lounge room, a table in the kitchen and a borrowed air bed upstairs. The rest of our worldly goods are packed away in storage down in Victoria until we can afford to ship it all over to the UK. At least I will have some time to get the decorating done before everything arrives!
I have found a few wallpapers that might be suitable for the loungeroom, just for a feature wall:
Graham & Brown Mode 'Elinor' in cream
or red:

I'm not sure if I would actually go with the red floral 'Elinor' just in case we change our minds and want to alter the colour scheme a bit later on. At the moment the 'Portobello' wallpaper is my preference for the lounge room.
