Stone basement design ideas

Hello,

I have quite a spacious basement which has a stone wall. I am using the basement as an office. The walls are painted white and I feel the place is just a little too plain and dull.

I was wondering if I could paint over the wall? Any ideas on colors that would go well? Can i paint over the existing paint? I would like to keep my costs low as I don't own the property.

Welcome to the forums Arun!

Shouldn't be any reason you can't repaint. Hard to pick colors for someone else but often you'll play off the colors in the furniture, pictures and such for the wall color. You could paint it all one color or have one color on the drywall and a complimentary color on the stone.
