Well I hesitate to add my thoughts after seeing XOX's initial reaction....but here it goes anyway:
I do think the interior could use some work. The saturation level on that blue pattern is too high for the amount of it you are using. It overwhelms the eye. Interiors look better with a mix of lower saturations and then a higher saturation for emphasis. Also I think it is a bit too much of that pattern period. Also overwhelming. No problem with echoing a theme pattern thoughout a house but it is more visually interesting and appealing if there is a mix of pattterns...there is actually a design mix formula..which I cant recall at the moment....but I find that sticking to one solid, and 2 coordinating patterns with similar tones, gives the room texture and interest without being too loud and busy. I would suggest picking a primary color and a complimentary one and then using those in different saturations and hues throughout the house with a third accent here and there for emphasis. It pulls the whole house together and gives it some flow.
That is my true and "coming from a place of wanting to help" opinion.
