Here's a colour scheme......
The brick remains untouched except to hang things. The walls, with the exception of the raised area will be a deep red on the bottom, and ivory on top. Some sort of border along the chair rail. The raised area will have (after removing the black floor and black ceiling) blue lower portion, yellow stripe upper half, with red accent along the chair rail. Bathrooms will be white with striped yellow or blue or red, depending on what is left.
That weird bar in the middle of the room will be removed.
More pictures will come.
