Will this look good? Pink, turquoise and brown??

I'm decorating my room. It's pretty small, a rectangular shape. It has a built in wardrobe in it. I was thinking of a colour scheme of fushcia/very deep pink, turquoise and dark brown/chocolate, will this look good? I'm thinking of keeping the walls and ceiling cream and white and the floor will have laminate flooring so the shell of the room will be pretty neutral. I'm not sure whether I should paint the wardrobe doors brown or not? I'm thinking of doing it 50-40-10 (pink-turqouise-brown) so would it look nice if the wardrobe doors were block brown with pink and turquoise flowers/butterflies stenciled on them? I want a chic yet girly look to the room? Any suggestions? How should I arrange the room?

make sure the 10% is the brown, as it makes the room look smaller.....that sounds like a lovley scheme though.
Reply:Maybe pink, light blue and brown? Although, turquoise may look OK too.....

Reply:You have the proportions correct.A room should have 2 prominant colours and an accent colour which you have chosen as the brown.Make sure the brown just highlights small areas around the room.With the background cream it sounds chic enough to me and girly without being over done.Use the brown on a picture frame .candle,cushion or beaded tie backs on the curtains.A good tip is to buy 2 cheap necklaces to use as tie backs.A small cream and brown rug would be nice but just make sure the room looks balanced and not too fussy and you can't go wrong.
Reply:I think that sounds quite nice actually. You can always paint over it if you hate it. Go for it!
Reply:i have seen that before and it looks nice.
Reply:Since the shell of the room will be neutral, I think the turquoise and brown will definitely work. I don't know about the fushcia though. Personally, I think it wouldn't contrast well with the brown. You may want to try a paler pink instead. I love the idea for your wardrobe doors. I imagine it will look beautiful. Good luck!
Reply:Of course! Pink makes everything all better!
Reply:The secret to the is to accent not block colour.As these are strong colours, I would leave the door white and use a few pink and turquoise butterflies (actually I wouldn't not my kind of thing) then use the same colours in the details, lampshades curtains cream with a pink or turquoise border or transfer the butterfly motifs. bed linen pink pillow cases turquoise or vice versa. The chocolate brown should be used very sparingly if its a small room as you risk it feeling cramped.
