Q: Our old Victorian home (1904) has a lot of small rooms on the top floor — the "rabbit warren," my husband calls it. We have a student tenant living in one, and I'm thinking about taking another as a hobby room for myself. I need ideas about color and furniture. I guess I should paint it white because it's so small.

A: Not necessarily so. Obviously, you have researched and learned that white and light colors equal a more spacious feeling, but rules can be bent.
