A lot of this is personal taste, but there are some rules. Warm colors seem to advance toward you and make a room look smaller. This is good for making a room seem cozy. Cool colors seem to recede and make a room look larger. This makes a room seem airy and relaxing. Use bold colors only as accents or a feature wall, and neutrals for the main bulk of the room. Avoid pure whites, instead go for off whites with a hint of your bold accent color, or pastel colors for the main area of the wall. Warm and cool grays are another neutral option and look pretty classy with a splash of the corresponding 'temperature' of bold color.

Hm.. maybe if you us a white wallpaper with a certain pattern in black on the side of the room with the kiln (not a kiln or a different word for it?) and then with the rest of the room in a different color like it already is.

And forgot to to add maybe beige? It might work good with the natural light from the big window.

oh and op dont cheap out and by flat finish shit paint. It will pick up dirt/fingerprints like mad. Just go with a semi gloss meant for interior rooms. Just ask the person at the counter they will know what kind.
