Need help with wall/trim color
What color do you recommend for my master bathroom walls/trim? Will continue the color scheme into master bedroom. White “marble look porcelain” floor and white subway shower tile, dark blue L-shaped vanity with 2 sinks, quartz countertop will be white with faint gray veins, brushed nickel fixtures and sconces, two vanity mirrors framed in “antique silver.” Initially considered Shoji White (SW7042) on walls and trim thinking it would keep space from being too cool. Now I’m not sure. Would appreciate your suggestions!

Comments (22)Squirrel hit it with the "warm" blues and grays. I think F&B Blue Gray could be quite wonderful. F&B in North America is distributed out of Canada...no problem there. What I see is that there are so many warm elements in your home -- granite, floors, wood furniture, etc. -- that you will not have a cold feeling with a blue or gray color on the walls. Instead, you will create a balance between warmer and cooler tones. That balance, and the variety, is pleasing to the human eye physiologically. Using more warm tones on the walls, while harmonious (and safe), also create a certain degree of monotony. At least that's what I believe about color. I am sure others here may disagree. Of the splotches I see, I think they are too light or too dark. You need something more in the middle, like Squirrel's first blue gray. That dark gray you're playing with, while very interesting, would just make the space very dark along with your gorgeous floors and cabs. Too pale a gray and you are back in the icy-I'm-feeling-cold zone! When I look at the blue gray on the wall against the golden color of the granite, it just sings! Blue and yellow are a classic color pair, and with a knocked back red (something earthy), form a perfect triad on the color wheel. That's a way to play it safe without resorting to beige...just use one of the reliable color combos, like the triad. Remember, you will also have plenty of opportunity to change the feeling of things with accessories and art. Red pillows for winter, creamy pale colors for summer, etc. You can change out window treatments seasonally. (Tailored panels in winter, bare windows in summer, for instance.) I think your style and architecture is very energetic and I feel the color scheme can certainly follow. It would be a shame (IMO) to stay with beige......See MoreNeed help with exterior trim and trim colors.

Comments (18)Thanks. Your sink doesn't have enough overhang for what we are going for. It was cut on site so there was no error. They say ours is typically what they do but they are willing to come and shorten it a little bit. We want to be able to sweep food particles and whatever else directly into the sink. Your sink has a lip before the sink and I feel like food would get stuck there before it made it to the sink. The majority of pictures online show a sink with countertops like ours. Yours is a postive reveal. We still want a negative reveal just not as big as what we have now. Thanks...See MoreHELP! Need advice on wall, trim and ceiling colors

2 months agoI just renovated my guest bathroom. Similar tile on the shower floor and marble tile on walls. I do get a good deal of natural light though. Actually I did paint before the countertops went in but after the lighting. It’s a much smaller space of course. If your trim in the bedroom is white I would just carry it through the same into the bathroom.

I had to get a color match for mine at HD. BM and SW wouldn't even try.
All popular grays clashed with my tiles.

2 months agoI also renovated my other guest bedroom ( a much different look) and it is painted in SW Gossamer Veil. A bit darker, warm but nice.
