Then consider painting the entire wall one color…Just afraid it might look “too dining room”. I like this color for the walls…B.M.smoke embers…from your photo, the wood tone has a gray undertone in the brown finish. Pottery Barn

We recently finished renovating our master bath. Now we are working on master bedroom. We painted the walls a soft grey. We are installing white wide shutters. We are looking at engineered wood 8" wide planks in a light wood color or a grayish color (light). Are wide planks the "it" thing now vs thin wood? Trying to decide if we should go with a grey wood floor or light wood color? The top photo is a sample we are considering.The second photo below is from our bedroom entering into our master bath. there are two sample floor pieces we are considering that are in the grey family. The flooring in the bedroom (porcelain tile) will be torn up- contractor installed the incorrect color- it was supposed to match the bathroom. Any input or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. we need to decide by this Wednesday.

Also, we've changed some things in our kitchen/breakfast room area so that color is going lighter. Currently it's SW Colonnade, but will be changing to SW Glacial Stream. It's a similar tone, but I want to go lighter. From the kitchen, there's an opening to an area where the garage door is on the left side and the powder room door is on the right side. Here's the Cheerful door to the garage. If you don't like it, please keep your comments to yourself. I like it a lot, but it's a bit brighter than I anticipated. Note to self to always do a sample, not just hold up a swatch. I will not repaint it. It looks good, just personal preference to the brightness. The gray is Colonnade, but changing to a smidge lighter gray.

Interesting perspective! Didn't think about that. My closet door is usually open. One thing that makes me hesitant about B, is additional construction (tearing a wall down, and adding 2 walls VS just adding one wall). Any other reasons B is better, helping convince myself it's worth the costs.
