Before you said it, I was going to suggest trying a sample at 50% or even 75%. Personally, I think one color throughout a first floor, especially an actual color (vs. beige... which I personally wouldn't do either!) could be a bit much. Maybe a "step down" in color between the dining room and the living room would work nicely.

I agree with sueb. Although your space flows from one room to another, it looks like there is a divsion. A green slightly different, but enough to be noticeable would work.
Or, how about a gold tone to pick up one of the shades in your picture? Restrained Gold or Blonde?

Just returned from BM store with a sample of Tree Moss. It appears to be a step lighter than Louisburg, but DH commented that it's bluer than Louisburg. It's definitely in the family, though. I have Saybrook Sage, SW Grassland, and now Tree Moss, Louisburg Green and Cheyenne Green all on the walls, and Louisburg is still the color I like the best.

I spent 2 years looking at the beigey yellows and golds, and I can't say I'm a fan. The yellow beiges make my cream leather chair appear dirty and look a little odd next to the orangey wood of the Ikea cabinets and floor.

Groovia, I have to agree with you about not being a fan of beigy yellows and golds. In fact, I'm now in the process of painting over the greens in my house that have a yellow undertone. There's just something about them doesn't sit well with me. I've just finished painting my living room in BM Guilford Green and I love this color with its almost silvery-gray undertones, and plan to take it into my dining room next. I will probably continue on through the house with it in time - probably even covering what I just did in the hallway last week (BM Urban Nature - it's quite dark in my hallway and does feel a bit oppressive). I think since you keep returning to the Louisburg Green, you should go with it. Particularly since you'll pair it with white wainscoting, I doubt it will feel too heavy/oppressive for your space.

If you love it, do them all that color. If you don't like it once it is done, you'd only be repainting the top half of a room in order to change it.

If you painnt all three rooms with the same color and with wainscotting, I think your house would look like it was cut in half. Especially with the strong contrast of colors. Why not break it up a bit. Paint the wall behind the sofa solid green. The room without the red sofa could have a solid wall of a similar color of the red sofa. Maybe the green with white stripes in the hall.

As of this moment, I'm back to the yellows: either BM Philadelphia Cream, SW Plantation Beige or SW Netsuke. I guess I can always put a throw over the cream chair if they end up clashing. I may paint my entry area (part of it you see with the wall in the foreground) Louisburg Green.

Thanks for weighing in on the Louisburg green dilemma. I kind of like the BM Tree Moss Sample, though. ARGH!

I think my living room is painted in Manchester Tan but I'm not sure without going to the garage to look at the cans. My cousin has her house painted the same color with white woodwork in all the rooms. Her house is a small 2 bedroom, 1 bath row house with the smallest kitchen I've ever seen. She has lived there over 50 yrs. I think painting all the same color makes it look larger? She is an immaculate housekeeper, nothing is never out of place. Her Mother was the same way. I think they put up white wainscoat in the dining room. I think the same color throughout the house makes it look more uniform? I guess that is the word I'm looking for. I couldn't imagine it until I saw it and I love it. It's such a beautiful color and that white woodwork and white lace curtains just makes the colored walls pop. When we lived in our former homes, we always had a different color of carpet for each room. This house had all the same color throughout when it went on the market 7 yrs. ago. I can see now why my friend kept telling me all one color makes things look put together, not chopped up. I didn't understand her philosophy years ago but now I do and I love it and wouldn't have but one color ever.

I found a website about a month ago listing the top selling Benjamin Moore paints by room..I printed it out for future use. Some colors I recognize and have used before. The website, if you'd like to look at it is www.breslow.com. Did you know that you can buy your own paint swatch book. Seems like it was $10 or $15 so you have it to go through and decide before you go to the paint store. My SIL who is a contractor loaned me his one time and told me that they would sell anybody one. Sherwin Williams will do the same thing but I can't remember what their cost was.

If I remember right, you can click on the color name and it will show that color on the screen.

Good Luck..painting is what is on my list of goals to achieve in 2012..The bedrooms are builder's white and I don't like white walls for my own taste.
