If Qurʾān copies, Islamic books, or wall hangings containing Qurʾānic verses are present in the room, is it permissible for a husband and wife to be intimate there? Is this act Islamically permissible or prohibited?

It is permissible for a husband and wife to be intimate in such a room, as there is no explicit Sharʿī evidence prohibiting this.
