Yes--my living room!
My two favorite colors are purple and red. When I bought my house it had all white walls and pink carpet in the living room--UGH!
So, I ripped out the carpet and went shopping. I found a beautiful old fashioned printed carpet that is blue and gray and has small flowers in a deep purple/pink. Before having it installed, I went paint shopping and found a luscious deep purple called mountain majesty . It was beautiful, but was a little flat. I fretted on it for a few days and decided to add some depth by sponging an additional color on it---now what color you ask? Well, red of course. It still didn't turn my crank so I added some texture and voila, PERFECT! That was 12 years ago, and I still love this room.
