North facing Open living room dilemma

Hello,


I'm having issues picking a paint color. We thought we wanted a sagey/olive green- but the colors I'm picking out are not working. I learned that I should stick with warm colors- as the greens look too cold in a northern light.


I so far have:


Behr-Sage wisdom= too dark

Wabi sabi-too milky/minty


Sherwin Williams-

Livable green- too minty/green/yuck

Sea Salt- too beachy


The wall color I have currently on the wall is Coconut Milk- this is a beautiful color, however, my room feels cold and depressing during the day. I am aiming for warm and cozy- but something that goes well with my large stone fireplace. I have 8 Ft. ceilings and want a color that will make the walls look a little bit taller??? We have dark trim, all wood floors which I think are on the warmer side. We tend to lean towards a traditional decorating style. (the house is a mess, my husband tore down park of our entry to brighten up the kitchen)





Can anyone, anyone help??? Would a taupe or warm grey be out of the question? Should I just stick with warm whites??
