North-facing rooms get a bad press – these spaces do lack natural light as they miss out on direct sunlight. This means they can be cold visually and in terms of temperature as they don't warm up naturally from the sun. The key is to learn how to decorate a north-facing room so you can enhance what you have.
These rooms tend to make great snugs, libraries and gaming rooms – or a cosy living room idea. It is possible to create a lovely space if you follow some key interior design advice, and start by thinking about your room's colour scheme and paint ideas.
