Please suggest a color for curtains. Stairwell is going to be black metal modern with cable. Room divider (not up yet) is brown /wood/geometric/ modern slats (between dining room and living room). Walls 16 feet high. Walls pure white. Teal/turquoise rug - see picture (hasn't arrived yet) will be overlapped on existing rug. Should I paint window sills black to match stairs and chimney to give contrast to window area? OR Should I choose a different color curtain other than white?
Should I change pillows on couch? Ones I have are white with teal, brown and green geometric design. Large pictures have ivory background/green, turquoise, aqua leaves. Frames are brown. Plaques next to mantel are birchwood natural with black palms. Wall across from chimney matches the brick on chimney (creamy beige bricks). Actually it's wallpaper, but it sure does look like real bricks. Floor is going to white hardwood with a hint a beige, but primarily whitish.
Please suggest any ideas you have in mind to improve my space. Bear in mind I would like to keep the room as light and airy as possible. I tried beige linen drapes but they caused the room to become somewhat drab. I would appreciate any and all recommendations you may have as I am really stuck here. Thank you so very much! God Bless.

If it was my room, with the dark furniture, dark frames, dark firebox, and dark mantle, I would change the curtains to a pretty aqua or teal color, but not TOO dark a shade. And maybe not solid. If you could find white with some swirls, or other splashes of aqua or teal, I think that would look great. If not, then go with my first suggestion.
