I love blue colors.... Are you only covering the red ? Keeping the white trim and taupe/dark beige walls? I love Racoon Fur but it is a very almost black dark color. It can have a sheen of gray but you would need better lighting. I love Polo Blue by BM but it will be too dark for you. I used Benjamin Moore Polo Blue.. The cabinets were made by Cabico but we color matched at BM store and they said it was Polo Blue. We have lots of light so it shines bright in the room. On the far right is Benjamin Moore Polo Blue Benjamin Moore Old Navy in the Aura matte finish might be hale navy BM Benjamin Moore Hale Navy HC-154. Benjamin Moore HC-155 Newburyport Blue Benjamin Moore Old Navy! Benjamin Moore van Deusen Blue Benjamin Moore HC-155 Newburyport Blue.

Hi sorry no one has answered yet, did you go through with anything yet? I think it’s not easy giving advice on white without being there in person. However, there can be some clues like lighting conditions / direction of window facing, uou said you are using terracotta, so you can find something with an orange, red or yellow undertone in it and avoid anything with blue or green… unless you want it to stick out. I think you getting samples is a great idea. I found light colors arent easy because it can have indertones that you might or might not expect to show up & can look dofferent from room to room. Shoji white I think has green undertones, but depending on the light snd surroundings, it can look different. you can see how you like it and maybe play with some color cards on the fsn deck first and look at the darker version on each to see what undertones are at play, but thats just the start. Do update when your finished!

I suspect the paneling above that appears to be on an angle, is a bulk head for something, and I would be very cautious, trying to remove it. It may hold plumbing pipes, or it may hold ac vent pipes, etc. I would paint the walls all to match, but, leave the wood on the slanted ceiling part. I would paint the bookcases white too (different sheen, but, same color white as the walls), but leave the mantle like it is.

I hate to see people spend money to replace what is the ;eat offensive issue. If you love that pink good for you but IMO it is horrible . I would like to hesr form the OP He wants to replace the flooring for god's sake how can that be done without dealing with the rest. IMO the floor is the only thing worth keeping. I need to understand what his plan is . I respect that people can't afford big changes but flooring is abig change to wnat ot do with a ton of really dated stuff. As usual your opinion is just YOUR OPINION. And in this case YOUR OPINION was not asked for! The OP asked what to do with the floors and walls. Pal came up with the same solution I would have suggested. And just because YOU DON"T LIKE IT, doesn't mean other people agree with you.
