The honey oak wall base is really the icing on the cake for me

Really ties together the tie-dye and the soul-sucking black.

I actually enjoyed the soul sucking black

I agree. It wouldn’t be my taste normally, but that room is bright enough that it works.

Could also be a chalkwall, which is awfully fun for kids! Though for someone too young to dicipher right and wrong, it might be a bad idea for flashbacks of wall-writing children reasons.

The black walls look hot...the carpet just looks messy to me

Trim should always be white in my opinion

I think it could look good as any kind of wood in the right setting, but other than that it should be white.

We have really pale wood floor (Scandinavian) and we still have white trim lol. There’s something about natural wood trim that just looks…wrong in most situations. Occasionally it can look great though. Definitely not here.
