I have a long room 18x12 with vaulted ceilings. The previous owner painted the walls and ceiling white with a dark green paint for the vaulted portions, then they put up a floral trim paper around the top, finishing off with dark green carpet.:wall:
Help.
How do I make this room appear wider? I plan to take up the carpet and replace it with hardwood flooring.

Thanks for any advice,

JB
