Paint Design Dilemma

What sherwin williams color that can be used with repose gray

2 years ago

We're building a new house and I'm in the process of selecting paint colors. I think I'm going to use repose gray for walls throughout the house. With that being said, should I go with a cooler gray or warmer gray for the cabinets in the kitchen? The kitchen is an interior room so it will not receive natural light. I'm not sure how dark the repose gray is. Also what is a good trim color to use with repose gray? Thank you!

I suggest you do the cabinets in Repose Gray:

7757 for trim in semi-gloss and 7757 for ceilings in flat finish.

For a complimentary wall color:

Thank you so much! I love those colors put together. Could you please tell me the name of the wall paint color? I couldn't read it from the photo. I will definitely check these out!

uscpsycho--we just had the entire interior of our historic 1905 remodel painted Modern Gray and I love it! There is a LOT of trim--chunky moldings and baseboards and window casings. We painted all of that SW Alabaster and love it too. It is a creamy white without yellow undertones. I will try to find pics to upload for you to see. Also--rughdesign.com is a blog devoted entirely to Sherwin Williams colors and has an extensive library of each color and what other SW paint compliments that color. I relied on her blog a lot. Best of luck! Fun but very stressful choosing paint colors.

A local consult from a designer will be the best money you spend on the project. Colors need to be chosen in the light that they will be viewed, and with the phish all samples of the products right there in front of you. You cannot choose colors online.

That's sort of hard without seeing the rest of the kitchen. Our kitchen is SW "Site Gray" with a slightly darker accent (the color name is escaping me right now).

Your sofa looks like it is Pink Beige or Taupe. This would explain why it does not look its best with the yellow-toned wall. https://www.mariakillam.com/vancouver-colour-expert-reveals-what-everyone-should-know-about-beige/ But it might also clash with cooler grays.

Coordinating colors for repose gray

As you see Eider White works great with it. And Warm gray as well. If you do not have enough light you might want to go with off-white instead gray. Gray color is out already.
