What colour paint?

I am redecorating my living room and have this lovely silver and white wallpaper but cannot decide what colour to paint the room to go with it. I'm wondering if green would look a bit cold? It's quite a big room and is at the back of the house so has a large window and door out into the garden giving a lot of light.

I'm on a budget so usually buy wilkos paint but wilko have tins of dulux on half price this weekend so could also consider dulux.

What colour paint?

What about a warm green? A light olive?

Or, Dulux do a nice colour called Dusted Moss - a greeny grey neutral. It comes in four intensities (though maybe not at Wilko half price!).

Looking at the Farrow and Ball colour chart (I know you won't be buying that, but it's what I've got beside me and you can translate the colours across) I reckon these would all look good with your paper: Hardwick White, Cornforth White, Cromarty, Mizzle, Peignoir, Ball Green, Yearbridge Green, Calke Green. Arsenic would look awesome but not for the faint-hearted! Also: Teresa's Green Dix Blue, Borrowed Light, Light Blue, Calluna, Brassica.
