What are the colors of your walls in your house?
Comments (21)All the rooms colors have a similar depth and tone to them. Most of the colors are earth-toned, but we do have two rooms with a Federal slate blue. Since the house is small and the walls of some segue into others, I the colors to have the same intensity and depth so as not to look disjointed: 1st Floor: Kitchen ~ "Nora's Kitchen Green", a custom blend with a slight olive/mossy undertone...which shares a wall, although divided, with the... Living room ~ "Beeswax", a beautiful ochre gold Guest bath ~ "Beeswax", because it's off the living room. Den and guest rooms ~ "Stormy Blue", a Federal slate blue, reminiscent of a color found in older homes. 2nd Floor: Bedroom ~ "Winter Wheat, a medium earth-toned mushroomy color (okay, brown LOL), which leads into the... Master Bath area ~ "Winter Wheat" I like things orderly, including my flow of colors. But one wild thing are my kitchen counters, which are a port red.

This gives a slight contrast in texture but the colors won't fight with each other. Here's an example of white walls with a contrasting trim color: This one is painted all in one color--trim, walls, ceiling, for a very sophisticated cohesive look: Here's a room with trim and walls the same with a nice contrast of white on the ceiling and mantel: This is an example of white trim with a light color on the walls (BM Navajo White on trim and Abington Putty on walls). You can still perceive the difference but it's not too stark: White on white is a perfect backdrop for furnishings and rustic brick. No need to bother with contrasting whites:...See MoreNeed help what color vanity and paint wall for the bathroom
Comments (5)I'd do a gray grout. it will hold up better. if you want something lighter for the shower, try Mapei Warm Gray. have you thought about doing a warm wood vanity? with all of that gray, it will look rather 'cold' without something to give it some warmth. I love this warm gray oak one w/your tiles do a marble counter, or a white or gray quartz. if you don't want wood, then go for a black vanity.
