Do you know what color that gray is?

The adjoining kitchen and dining accent wall will be painted in SW 6249 "Stormcloud". What would look good with it?

Stay neutral and lighter than the stone around the fireplace. Bring your accent colors in with art and accessories. Nice room!

You know the 1st thing I thought of when looking at your 1st photo was 'good these people stayed with a nice light color for their floors'. Anyway you did not go really, really dark as most people are. The best way to select a wall color is to pick your basic color & buy several sample cans to paint on poster boards to place around the room at different times of the day.

Go lighter than you think you will want. This is the best way to select paint colors. Pc's do not show us a true rendering of color & only you will know what you like. Please do not go with any shade of grey though for the same reason everyone is going with dark floors, everyone thinks they should. Good luck in the new house it is lovely.

We went darker on the floors because of the red cherry cabinets. The contrast was to strong and the old floors felt "cold". We like the "mid" shade we went with as the room feels much warmer now.

We do have a few colors picked and painted on poster board that we will be looking at in different lights tomorrow. They are all lighter than the stone fireplace and are various colors that we think will accent the stone.

Thanks for the comments.

it is called candlestick gray. I can't remember if it was Behr or Glidden. I had to test so many yo find the right gray. Trouble is it can look completely different in a different room just because of the lighting! Best to buy a sample of a couple that come recommended, then get a couple more samples based off how those colors look in your room...you might need to go more brown, less blue, darker, lighter...Gray is beautiful but hard to get right!
