what green SW paint color with SW Latte
Comments (7)Hi there, I actually just painted my kitchen SW Latte and my ajoining dining area is painted in Behr Caraway and I personally think they look fab together - really flow and compliments eachother. PICS: SW LATTE looks a little lighter in this pic....See Morewhat color should I paint walls to compliment SW Urbane Bronze ceiling
Comments (8)Just because you had a coffin lid before, doesn't mean it need remain so. Your goal and the surrounding areas are missing.If you're in progress...... you did a kitchen, or SHOW the kitchen... but nobody can advise based on your info thus far. Show the rest of the spaces beyond and flesh out the missing information....and the feel you want throughout....See MoreMain wall color to compliment SW Urbane Bronze
Comments (22)Would you mind posting a picture or three? Your question and conversation is our actual dilemma. I want Urbane Bronze on my basement theater wall. It's all new construction with extremely well lighted areas. However, I am struggling in choosing the accompanying gray that goes with it. Agreeable Gray is also, slightly too pinkish for my taste. How did the iron ore turn out? I am worried that it will look too black, rather than dark gray or charcoal....See MoreSW paint color to pair with SW Pure White trim in a basement
Comments (7)I would like something "bright" without yellow undertones. "Undertones" are a construct of the internet - they aren't an attribute of color. In other words, when someone describes color appearance in terms of "undertone" they're simply giving you their subjective opinion of what a color looks like to them under an unspecified light source and in some random context. Undertones aren't facts, they're just opinions and not worthy of consideration - because how a color shows up for you in the inherent light and context you have to work with is likely very different. Here are the colors and their respective hue family - hue angle/family is derived directly from measuring the color using a balanced light source. Hue angle/family is an objective color appearance description baseline that's reasonable to reference because the light source is defined - daylight around noon ish. All things considered from what you said, IMO Silver Strand would be a good option with Pure White. The colors in the pink box aren't technically colors of white. Either too dark in terms of Value and/or too much Chroma. If it's a color with a Value less than 9.50 ish, then the rule of thumb about Chroma isn't applicable. The Rule of Thumb is: the key to successfully creating white-on-white/white-on-off-white color schemes is make sure there is a difference in Chroma of at least 0.20. The difference almost always insures that neither color will make the other look dirty or dingy under most light sources....See Moretibbrix
