Hello, the office is a south facing room, square. I have a dark cherry desk and dark cherry bookcase. Cape Hatteras Sand was suggested to me but I'm finding anything in the gray family (which is what that looks like to me) isn't really my thing. I don't intent to change the furnishings. Any suggestions for color would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Wanted to add that on the left wall is a wooden flag with the Constitution written on it. Wanted to have a color that would be a nice backdrop for that piece.

I had Cape Hatteras Sand in my DR. It reads mauve in lighter light. I repainted it last fall. I still have it in my master bathroom, which has no windows, and it's a nice, creamy color. I think you made a good call not going with it for your office.

Thank you! I would love to know what these colors are. You definitely have a great eye for color!

The colors by their names don't reflect the actual color, which is why I didn't list them by name. It's more a guideline to help you decide which direction you think you might like to go. The colors you see on your monitor would not look at all like that IRL, with the same color. Do you see any up there you prefer, i.e.: the deeper green, grayer blue, tan….? I can do more. Any colors you'd like me to try. Light colors are impossible to do, esp. with the beige that is on your walls now (which also affects the colors you see).

I'm going to look at these a little more, thank you! You have a wonderful eye for color and have definitely given me more options to consider. That deeper green is very nice and so is that bottom blue. All very nice to consider.

Look at SW Artichoke, a gorgeous green. Someone else here did their office in it, and it is just beautiful.

For the lower blue, look at SW Tempe Star (in fact, I think that I used Tempe Star for that pic!, and it actually looks very accurate, next to SW's online swatch).

Btw, SW is having a sale right now, 40% off paint. April 17 - 20. If you don't decide on a color, you can buy the base paint at the 40% off and take it back later and they'll mix the color in for you, no charge.

I will! Thank you so much!

Very welcome. And thank you for the very nice compliment.

Tibbrix, what paint color is that lighter green on top? That's also very nice. I wish you could actually see my house lol! That green looks kind of light but not overly bright. I'll be getting some samples today. Thanks again.

That green reads slightly olive--yellow undertones, but not grayed down like most olives. It's close to BM Georgian Green, which I have in my LR/DR with cherry furniture. I have a chair upholstered in the red of your office chair. Georgian Green won't go too bright either, which some of the yellow greens tend to do. The color that is one lighter on the strip, Guilford Green, is BM color of 2015.

Not sure what color that is. I'll try to figure it out. Meantime, this is a nice one, SW Plymouth Green.

If the room gets a lot of light, going lighter is smarter. If not, go deeper in hue.

Ah! The lighter green in the top pic is actually the SW Artichoke, but IRL, Artichoke doesn't look like that at all.

Here is the SW swatch of Artichoke

The deeper green is SW Vogue Green, which would be quite dark.

The office as well as that front bedroom I posted get a lot of light most of the time.
