Depends on what the accent color of your stuff is. But If you just want to do a regular color to off set the dark wall , i would do a very light Beige , or even a nice white , like soft white or even a cream. Good Luck.Painting one wall red, what color should i paint the 3 other ones?

Behr paint has a dusty pink called ';melted ice cream'; (# 220E-3), that I think would look beautiful. Check it out:

Any shade of white will help the room seem a little bigger, I know it sounds like a cop out but it is probably your best choice.


The room will already seem smaller due to the dark red, so you will want to help it out with a brighter color...pink just doesn't sound like a good choice to me....but hey I'm a guy...what do I know
Brown and a lighter red. It'll look really nice!

White (possibly cream) with a red stripe in one of the opposite corners.





I had a interior decorator friend of mine help me with a very similar layout. She suggested the red wall and then stripe (vertical stripe) on the opposite corner. When I moved out the new renter asked that I not change the paint she liked it so much.
Try:


off white [ white with a tiny bit brown ]


ivory [ white with tiny bit of yellow ]


white
how about an antique qhite it is more on the creamy side it would look better than pink.is it a bedroom? i can see if it is a bedroom doing it pink other than that i wouldn't do the other walls pink.
