I want to add colour to my lounge as main colours are:
walls: jasmine white/calico
daddo rail: pine
flooring: beech laminate
sofa: chocolate brown - cushions: cream
curtains: chocolate brown

I want to accessorize but not sure what colours to go for, i.e. lamp base/shade, vases, paintings etc.

Suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I think terracotta or orange whould be nice.
Duck egg blue?
depends on what feel you want . If you want a retro modern feel go for baby/ice blue or orange , if you want more of a homely feel go for reds, try not to use more than one colour on your accessories as it will make it too busy.
terracotta colour would look good
My kitchen is in brown/cream and duck egg blue and my bedroom is brown/cream and dusky pink.

Both of these combinations look gorgeous.
Pink or Gold.

Pale pink as you already have a strong colour in the room..

Gold goes well with most colours, and if you wish to change that colour scheme you can move the gold to another room.
Sand or Gold.
Strawberry!

The best piece of advice I ever heard about matching colours was to think of them as food. This was Lawrence Llewelyn Bowen's idea.

If you think about it, a strawberry goes very well with chocolate, and also with cream. As an accent colour in a room, I think strawberry would be "delicious"!
Ooops that's LaUrence ..... sorry Laurence ... :)
I think a deep shade of red would go well... the strong colour being accented in a room of neutrals and browns.
