Interior Trim Color with SW Antique White walls
Comments (3)my current house had all antique white walls and trim... the different finishes (matte and semi gloss) give them a different look even tho they're the same color. I think it looks nice, tho I like color so am repainting many of the walls. I am not a bright white trim fan, but a bright white would provide a fair amount of contrast if that's what you're looking for......See MoreWhat color and trim color with SW White Duck walls?
Comments (31)Jaime, I feel your pain! The decision making is killing me! Believe it or not, I still haven’t decided on wall colors. My cabinets and trim are going to be Sherwin Williams Pure White. Walls may also be Pure White. Otherwise they’ll be a very light greige or off white. Fortunately for me, the house is still under construction and I still have time to ponder! Pretty all of my choices have changed since I made this post. If you google Kylie M. Interiors, she is a fan of Whte Duck so she may have ideas for trim color. Good luck!...See MoreNeed a color between SW Antique White and SW creamy
Comments (24)The foyer was another color in the picture. I had forgotten that. It was something like SW Napery I'm guessing. I didn't paint it. I've painted it SW Creamy since then. The point that I wanted to make with the colors was it all depends on the light. Both rooms were painted the same color. But, the rooms face different directions and have different lighting. For a while I was using a lot of Dover White for trim and cabinetry and Napery for the walls, but I moved into a new home where the previous owner had used some Creamy. I liked how it worked with my wood flooring and furnishings. I ended up using Creamy in two more houses, both walls and trim. I wanted a neutral as possible because I have warm furnishings. Only Alabaster has a lighter LRV than Creamy. Nothing in my home has any grey in it. But, I didn't want things to cast yellow. I found both Alabaster and Creamy to be very complimentary with my furnishings and the flooring the room. I ended up painting the exterior of my home Alabaster. In the bright light of day, the Creamy had too much yellow in it for my exterior when it was put side to side with the Alabaster. But, it was perfect inside. Alabaster would have worked, but the Creamy on the interior works really nicely....See MoreWall paint color to go with SW Antique White Trim
Comments (8)See Kylie M's discussion of Antique White: https://www.kylieminteriors.ca/paint-colour-review-sherwin-williams-antique-white-sw-6119/ After you read that if you decide on a direction and still need more help, update your post. It would also help if you posted pictures of your space (enough for us to see what your style is). If you already know that you want a neutral, blue, green or whatever let us know. You'll see from Kylie's blog post that AW is not the easiest trim color to work with. When you're thinking about a direction to go in you need to be considering the fixed elements in the room(s) you will be painting such as flooring or cabinets if you're including your kitchen or a bathroom....See Moretjmanetti
