How about the boring cream with one wall a deep red? My old bedroom used to have the wall with the window a deep purple and the rest was off white. That way I had the color while still keeping the room bright since the sun shined on the white walls. But whatever works best with the architecture of your room...

It's also a lot easier to paint one wall. You can change the color more often if you all of a sudden enter a 'yellow' phase or a 'green and turquoise stripes' phase.

That's what I would suggest; have a "feature wall" in a fabulous strong colour, but keep the rest of the walls neutral, although I'd be inclined to go for a warmer buttery cream, rather than a very safe white-ish cream.

I like the sound of that. The Safe Cream is more off-white, almost a bit greenish, and it's horrid - but something nice and buttermilky would be much nicer.

I'm leaning more and more towards the three cream walls/one red wall plan...
