For a woman...

I have always recommended a deep burgundy, wine or maroon colour for your accent wall (usually the one the head of your bed is on) and a lighter tone (pink) of the same colour on the other three walls. Trim work is best done in white.

The sensuality of the room will come from the fabric you use in the room.

If this is a bedroom, your linens (sheets, pillowcases, bed-skirt, and if you want to go a little over the top, your canopy) should be in the best quality you can afford, and are best in white. Skip the satin sheets, they are neither comfortable nor practical. I use Egyptian cotton sheets with lace detail.

The more pillows on the bed the more luxurious it will appear. A comforter in a pattern or colour to match the accent wall will give the bed presence, while satiny fabrics are tactile and sensuous.

If you can get a bedroom set with either a canopy bed or a four-poster you will be well on your way. Dark carved woods give the impression of luxury and once again bring in a tactile element.

If there is room for a chair, make sure it is comfortable and your best choice is a well upholstered piece in a colour to match one of the colours in the comforter. I do not recommend white for upholstered furniture.

The window treatments should be white as well, lace is always nice, but a bit tough to keep clean.

As for flooring, if you choose,add an area rug if you have space, in something floral that incorporates the colours of your room. It adds another level of luxury.

Make sure you have several levels of lighting. Something on a dimmer is best for the main light, with task and mood lighting where appropriate.

For a man...

The ideas above are more or less applicable if you use either navy, sapphire or very deep blue (or Kelly, forest or deep green) for the accent wall. and a softer version for the rest of the walls.

Trim work can be either natural wood, or white.

I still like white linens, but many men prefer a colour, so a pale version of the accent wall or a neutral like silver grey with the blue or golden tan with the green work well.

Do not skimp on your comforter, there are many more "masculine" patterns available to choose from.

Furniture can be heavy and carved (no canopy, but a four poster is still good) or sleek and modern.

The window treatments may be in textured fabric instead of lace (not very masculine) or possibly wood.

Lighting is still very important for setting your mood.

If you choose to add an area rug, try a plain one with a contrasting border under your bed that extends about a foot and a half past the edge of the bed.

Finally, no matter the gender, a clean and tidy room is essential for a sensuous feel. It's tough to feel romantic if the bed is unmade and the floor is strewn with dirty laundry.

The answer varies from person to person. You must first define what you feel is "ugly".


What color interior wall paint would go with burgundy leather furniture in living room?

For a sophisticated look try a medium to dark tone of grey. Brown and/or beige work well, and lend a decidedly masculine look to a room. Greens will also tend to a more masculine look, but are harder to live with. A feminine feel can be achieved by using a light pinkish tone on the walls with lots of cream to keep it from getting to "little girlie."


What color should i paint one white wall in my bedroom my bedroom is purple and has butterflies all over it?

An accent wall in a celery green would like great in your room, as long as you like green. You could use a soft lavender or pink to enhance the purple and make the room very feminine. A butter yellow will make the room feel sunny, eve if you do not have a lot of windows. And a soft to medium blue will open the room up, as if the sky were visible trough the wall. Let you personal taste guide you in your choice.


What is the best color to paint a room with no windows?

Light pastel colours work best in small spaces without natural light. In a personal space, use a colour that makes you feel comfortable. In an office try something on the warm side of neutral, perhaps a soft buttery yellow, or barely there salmon-pink. Remember that blues, greens and greys tend to be cooler colours, whereas pinks, yellows and tans tend to be warm. If the room is below grade (basement) you may want to lean toward a warmer colour.

Green has been proven to be pleasing to human senses being associated with calmness, wealth, generosity, good luck and fertility.

However, this is only the case when experiencing the colour in moderation.

What is the most sensual type of massage?

Note: Sensual does not always mean sexual!Professional massage therapy is focused on the therapeutic aspects of having your body tissues manipulated. Sometimes this can feel sensual, but that is not the intended purpose of the therapy. Sensual, by definition, means 'sensate' and that refers to having all your senses filled. It is not necessary to feel sexual if you are feeling sensual. All too often these terms are misunderstood and thought to be the same. They are not. It is perfectly natural to feel sensual without any sexual thoughts while receiving a massage.But there are other therapies such as Tantric Massage, very sensual indeed, and intended for couples only.
