Looks like Faint Maple has a red undertone- you'll have to work with that. I would choose a similar but lighter color for the living space- like Ben Moore yosemite sand AC-4 and go dramatic with the dining room. Small spaces can still be bold- how about a chocolate brown or violet... Both complement red/tan & look great with white trim. Good luck to you!

Thanks very much for your suggestions, I'm gonna have to look into the B.M. color you mentioned. I wanted to go bold in the dineing room but wasn't sure because the furniture is rot iron dark brown w/ glass tops...wasn't sure if it wld be all too dark. Altough white trim really does make a space feel larger I think.

Not sure what your colour is but we did the bulk of our house in Innukshuk from Benjamin Moore. Every single colour that we put in the bedrooms or bathrooms match it to a t.
