In my bedroom, each wall is a different color. (Because when I was 13, that sounded like a good idea to me.) We recently just re-did my mom's bedroom, and (since my mom decided that she thinks I'm the creative one in the family) she let me do the interior design, and I did the accent wall thing. She's now got three walls in a dark tan-beige color, and one accent wall in dark chocolate brown. It looks really nice in there, but I wish we had enough paint to do the opposite wall dark brown as well. The room just doesn't look finished... I like the idea of doing the brick red, especially since it would tie in everything. I would do the red on the wall with the door on it, and the wall with the windows on it. Then when you walk in, the red window wall will pop out. But if you do two walls next to each other...it might make the room look a bit crowded/small. Plus if you do the two opposite walls, the room will feel a bit longer. And I think it'll make the room look so much more warm and cozy. Haha. Another thought would be to paint the other dresser white to match the first one... It drives me crazy that all my bedroom furniture is white, but I have one of those circular papasan chairs, and the wood/wicker frame holding the cushion is brown! Ah! Haha. But that's just me. Just make sure you keep the room totally closed off so Dexter and Deb can't inhale any fumes, or get in the paint. =) ....My black cat once rubbed up against bright teal-blue paint. He was not happy about that. I ended up having to cut it out of his fur. EDIT: I wouldn't do the wall with the bed, because that's just me.

In my bedroom, each wall is a different color. (Because when I was 13, that sounded like a good idea to me.)
We recently just re-did my mom’s bedroom, and (since my mom decided that she thinks I’m the creative one in the family) she let me do the interior design, and I did the accent wall thing.
She’s now got three walls in a dark tan-beige color, and one accent wall in dark chocolate brown. It looks really nice in there, but I wish we had enough paint to do the opposite wall dark brown as well. The room just doesn’t look finished…

To make it a true accent wall, you should only paint one or else the room will end up looking choppy, I think.<br><b>References : </b><br> I agree that you should paint the wall behind the bed; just that one.
