Before moving in with Sean, Tara lived in a rainbow of color. Since then the power of Sean’s persuasion has the couple drowning in tones of beige, but they are both unhappy with the results. Ultimately, Tara would like a more sophisticated and grown-up look for the formal living room. For the walls, they choose a grayish blue, which is sophisticated but still has a calming effect. They select a deep tone of beige for the ceiling to tie back into the floor color and to contrast with the blue walls.
