Oh not for a whole house. Maybe for one room...such as a gaming room or somethin...

No IKEA here, unfortunately

And I guess you're right, Jenny. As the "anchor", I was thinking of using this very simple table:



Since it's both the dining room and my home office (the bedroom would be too cluttered if I put a table there). And I'd match the rest of the furniture with this "anchoring table"... for example, the bookshelves:



...the chairs...



... and even the silverware. I'd leave the beige and the blue for accessories and stuff, to make it less dark. I want it to look sober and masculine, if you know what I mean. Think of your stereotypical Capricorn: that would be me

But, maybe Lilith is right: dark furniture in such a light room might look weird, and painting the walls will probably make it look even smaller...

... hmmm...

It can work, you just need some neutral shades in there like a pale grey and a darker coloured floor, but you don't... so, don't!

(Don't feel bad about no Ikea either )

What if I lay some dark rugs on the floor?

Just stick to the lighter colours, it'll make the place look a lot more fresh and open.

you need more dirt and huge spiders everywhere if you want it to look korean...also the smell of grease and cabbage will add authenticity points.
