I think I've almost got a color narrowed down. I found a really nice grey that is almost right, so I'm going to try to get a darker sample and see if it will be as fantastic as I'm hoping it will be. However, I've hit another problem. As I look at my fireplace (which I hope to strip back down to its natural brick), I've realized that the proportions are really throwing me off. The mantle seems too small considering the size of the fireplace. Am I crazy in thinking so? Something has to be done with the mantle anyway, since it's not even attached to the fireplace. We can pull it right off, which seems a bit dangerous since there's also an outlet built into it. I like the look of this sort of fireplace, with the pretty white wood against the dark brick. They even have dark walls, which helps me to visualize what mine could look like. But given the shape of mine, I can't really see a way to achieve that look. Any ideas on how I might? The bits of brick that stick out at the top, as well as the fact that my brick doesn't extend to the ceiling, has me thinking I won't be able to just attach boards. Maybe I should just make the mantle a bit thicker? From the floor to the top of the brick is 52 3/4" and the width is 55 1/2", if that helps.

@Lisa Caudill We ended up going with Dishy Coral from SW. We still do not have the sofa and love seat yet as they don't get delivered until Nov. This is the freshly painted room. We also found a rug we think will match the walls and the sofa. This is our formal living room or as I like to call it, the room that doesn't get used unless there is company. Haha I will come back and update once we get the sofa and love seat and get the room complete.

Hi, there … can you post some pictures of the room? (If you tried and they didn’t post, you have to wait until they look clear and not grayed-out. Sometimes it takes a while.)

Almost anything goes with white walls. I think the problem is you don't really know which style you want. You named three in your question. It's not so important to be able to name it, but having some inspiration pictures so that you can convey the look you're after would help. If you haven't already, take some time to compile one or more Ideabooks on Houzz (I do one for each room). Just start saving pictures of rooms you like and indicate what you like about each room in the comment field. After a while some commonalities should start becoming apparent. If not, if you're still all over the place, understand that sometimes one house or one room can't hold all of your good ideas. You will have a more pleasing, coherent end result if you refine your taste. Save some ideas for the next house, or the next time you redecorate. :-) What makes professional decorators'/designers' rooms stand out from non-professionals is the discipline required to achieve an intentional look.
