I'm thinking of coffee'n'cream colours for the place, with feature elements. I like it when they have a floral or royal pattern wallpaper on a feature-wall...
.... in a hotel, they did that, but instead of a wall, they used golden picture frames and filled it with the paper. That seemed like a good idea to me, looked wicked and you can change them easily.

What sort of thing do you like Berk? I mean, considering how much time you'll be staying at mine at some point in the future, you might as well get a say in it.

^this
If your main furniture and carpets etc are neutral then you can add colour with cushions, pictures, curtains.

Haha! not a big fan of green and orange but they're muted tones so work well.
And in a bright summery place like Greece then colours like that can work.

Plus the walls and floor are neutral so the colours on the furniture aren't overpowering.

After years of renting where every landlord paints everything magnolia and trade white
you finally get a place all of your own to do with whatever you please. And we all go with something neutral. Damn you lack of collective imagination.
