To me, it is a nice example of minimalism. I like its simplicity, and it is rather striking.

I'm with jaymatt, strikingly simple minimalism. The only improvement I would suggest, next time refinish the desk top. I know, I'm being picky.

Nice color blue. My son's bedroom was about that color. The table needs a serious rubbing with wood cleaner/restorer of some sort, though.

If you were asking about the scene, it vaguely reminds me of a set for "blown away guy" Maxell cassette tape ads from the 1970s.

I like the color. Have a similar color backdrop for photo use. Also agree with previousnpost, refinish the nice desk.

Very nice color. I've always liked blue - of various shades. One time I painted two (adjacent) walls of my living room flat black; it was very effective!!!

Thanks. And you’re right about the desk top…definitely a skill to be worked on👍

This is the dominant wall in the room and the only blue one, the others are a beige tone. It works.
As for black, I know a flight attendant who had a bedroom painted all black. It helped her sleep😊

Which skill to be worked on, your wood refinishing or my being picky? Just kidding a bit more, no answer needed. I'll try to be less picky in the future.

It’s definitely my woodworking. I’ve been looking at that desk for a long time so it just looked like it always does😂
