Q. This might sound a little crazy, but I want to have pink, tiffany blue, yellow, and gray with damask and chevron prints. Is this going to be too busy?

All those lurking interior designers. Any ideas on how to do a City styled room?

Q. I want to do a room design in sort of a city scape. But I don't know where to start. All I have right now is a massive grey room. Does anyone have ideas on how to do a city-esque room? Or can you provide links? I've been searching around, and I haven't found anything good, except for a red phone booth idea for the door.

Thanks for the help!

Original Question

How can I decorate a white apartment?

Q. I have a white wall and ceiling apartment but I have a hard time finding things to decorate it with. My couch is like a gray color and I have some pillows that are brown with blue and green decorations. What can I put up on those white walls to bring out some color? Also, my room is also white and my bed setting is wood. What kind of comforter should I get that would bring some color into the room?

A. For your bedroom I'd try to get a color that would really pop against the white walls and wood in your furniture. Depending on your style you could do primary colors like red or blue, which would go great for accent pieces (i.e. pillows, lamps, curtains) to make your room vibrant. Or you could do a monogramatic look w/one specific color and do different shades/tints of it, like cobalt blue, gray blue, baby blue, etc. It could create some depth in your room.

For your living room I'd try to do the same thing. Being as you're in an apartment you may have restrictions on painting, so I'd try to incorporate color through other ways like rugs, artwork, etc. I got some of my best ideas from this website, http://blog.forrent.com/category/apartment-decorating-tips

Hope this helps!
