try photoshop or something similar to look at different schemes for color and texture. we had bad 70's paneling in our place with a wood ceiling and wood beams - we ripped off the wall paneling and patched and then spray textured then painted. It was a lot of work, but not too much money and worth it. We left the wood ceiling and the beams. we also have brick walls, and we left those. i think painting the brick is not such a good idea - i would live in the space a bit first before you decide to paint the brick. but i agree with you that the panelling on the walls is too much - good luck.
