Paint Color for living area with bluish light from skylights

We are nearing the end of a gut rehab and addition on a funky 70s ranch with a huge dodecagonal (12-sided) living area. Between the three new skylights and massive existing grey-purple-green-blue Vermont slate circular chimney in the center, the light in the room has a bluish cast. We'd really like to have a warm and light colored room to keep the space cozy and bright rather than something cool and less welcoming. Looking for color suggestions for paint.

The floor will be a caramelized strand bamboo (similar to Teragren Wheat) and the kitchen (part of the dodecagon, too) will have natural maple slab cabinets with some color of Corian on the perimeter countertops (Sagebrush maybe?) plus an island covered in sea green slate we salvaged from the project. I'd be so grateful for any recommendations on how to choose a wall color for this area. If we go warm, will we offset some of the bluish light effects, or would we be better off just embracing it and going with something cooler? Please and thank you for any ideas!
