Colourfull living room is inspired from Pop art room.


Walls
Paint all the walls with white vinyl matt emulsion. Paint a broad band of turquoise halfway up the walls in the living room area and into the dining room. Add a thinner snooker ball pink band above the turquoise and paint with purple and blue stripes.


Chimney breast
Take inspiration from Space Odyssey 2001. Cut out a lozenge-shaped flexi ply drum and fix it to the front of the chimney breast. Cover with white eggshell paint. Place a funky, glowing lava lamp inside it.


Pop art table
Paint over an existing table with black gloss water-based eggshell. Stick neoprene square tiles on the top in various bright, snooker ball colours to give a checkerboard effect. Bolt a clear acrylic top onto the table (inside the lip) with mirror screws.


Andy Warhol Pictures
Take some head and shoulder shots. Scan them into a computer. Manipulate them using photo editing software, adding different colours. Take the disc to a specialist printing shop and print on A3 paper. Mount the pictures in clear, glass clip frames.


Funky art
To compliment the pictures, create a funky 3-dimensional piece of art by glue gunning large silver Christmas baubles onto a 3mm thick clear acrylic sheet (130cm x 60cm). Screw it directly onto the chimney breast wall in the dining area with mirror screws.


Chandelier
Pierce some spray painted ping pong balls with a needle, thread some fishing wire through them, tie a knot at the bottom and then attach them to an MDF dish. Replace an existing light shade with an aluminium pendant light shade.


Shelving unit
Add MDF sides and two doors to an existing shelving unit. Cover the door fronts with 39cm squared hardboard tiles, wadding and white PVC. Construct a simple MDF cupboard to sit under the shelving unit. Paint it white and cut out holes for handles.


Roller blinds
Using a circle cutter, cut large circles into two outside blinds. Hang two more blinds underneath these to a give a subtle finish, and so both can be hung independently. Re-upholster the existing sofas in a red cotton/wool mix.

Floor lights
Make three floor lights. Using simple lamps as a base, surround them with a cone-shaped sheet of colour polypropylene in different colours. To join the edges, drill holes through the polypropylene and secure them with chrome butterfly clips.
