Complementary colours are pairs of colours that contrast strongly when compared to each other.
The colours in this photo are so desaturated that the effect of complementary colours is lost. Your image demonstrates a duotone effect rather than the effect of complementary colours.

Check some of the forum discussions on complementary colours for suggestions on using colour for contrast.

Is it a duplex with inhabitants of different tastes? Very funny.

This one seems to be missing that "oomph" in the color. Too much pastel, and not enough of any defining colors.
