Please recommend a paint color for garage gym
Just got our two car garage finished. The drywalls have very subtle orange peel texture. I need to select a paint color before the painters start working tomorrow mid day.
The garage is mostly used as a gym and all gym equipments are black. An example pic before drywalls were up
Here is how it looks now with drywall.
We will also have one wall for laundry section and has white washer dryer with white Ikea Hageby cabinets. This is the wall where the closed door and furnace is.
For the ceiling we want to go with flat Kelly Moore Swiss Coffee mostly because we have a lot of it leftover from other remodel work.
For the walls we can't decide on a color.
1. All white: Clean look but might contrast a lot with all black equipment and just look like any other room.
2. All black or dark grey: Like the idea but will make the space very dark.
3. All walls white with one wall dark grey
4. All walls light grey.
Will appreciate suggestion specifically with brand and paint color name so we can just buy the recommended one :)

Comments (1)Cool space. I would consider painting the doors a dark charcoal or black (I don’t know about shiny black through, might be too much) but I would not paint the trim. Keep it white. As for the walls, you could do a color, like a light gray blue or green....See MoreRecommendation for black paint color for garage door.

Comments (5)Energetic colors mean different things to different people. We went with a brilliantly bright orange on one wall of our home gym. I'm ordinarily not a fan of accent walls, but for this application it works great. That pop of happy, exuberant color peps me up and really seems to make my workout time more pleasant....See MorePaint plan and paint color recommendations please!
Comments (19)I have a white kitchen and I am debating painting my island SW Riverway. My floors are Ipe and they are a red tone as well. Here are a few Riverway kitchens I had saved. SW Riverway Here it is mocked up in your kitchen. I left the pantry side the light color. I added a white and grey veined marble or ”marble-look” counter that you have planned. For the backsplash I just happened to pick a white or very light grey in a tiny herringbone pattern. I would keep it light and match the counter. Of course you would have to see samples of the teal green color in your kitchen’s lighting. I brought home a gazillion little color chips before finding one I liked. My next step is to get an actual paint sample to try. Like others have mentioned, because of the lack of windows, you may decide it is just too dark. Could you play around painting the cabinets you have since you plan to get new ones anyways? Oh and check out the color just above riverway….Moody blue! Ha! I think I remember some pros here saying that SW paint is not for cabinets. Your cabinet maker will know what kind is to be used for cabinets. I just thought it would give you an idea of how the colors would look....See More
