Sorry should have said any colour ways abers!
Plain white walls look quite striking next to a red wall. However, if it's a north or east facing room this might look a bit cold. A fresh, tonic pale yellow colour would look good too (not an orangey yellow).
A nice Dove Grey... then buy black & white check stripe or spotted cushions to brighten up sofa or chairs.
and a big vase of red roses to give yourself a pat on the back.

I'd stick with a neutral colour for 3 walls..........I have mine ivory.
I have used beige white recently (Crown matt) which lacks the yellow tone you get in magnolia and cream. I tried about ten different sample colours on two walls for different light effects before this became a clear winner.
Beige is all the rage at the moment, RJ. Looks incredible with a claret red, sage green for an earthy combination or even navy.
ooooh I know

"Look darling, you need to visualise the space. Is this room going to be used for entertaining or for family rest? You need to to decide if the children will be playing in here or if it will off limits? Me and Tarquin can't have kids on account that he's a man. I would say paint all the walls in this beautiful baby pink. Yo also need to rip up the old laminate floors; wood is sooooo last season. This year it's all about shag, ooooh matron. Seriously shagpile crpets in pink as well."

"Oh and don't foget the scatter cushion and throws, also in pink"

"Do you love it darling. It's bringing a tear to my eye just thinking about it"
I love a good shag...
