I would leave the walls and paint the trim dark.

It looks to me like your paint color is taupe, not beige. But regardless of what name is goes by, if you know what is on your walls, it is easy to go slightly darker. Copy the name and/or number from the paint can and take it to the company which originally made the paint. Just choose a shade darker. But do pick up a sample can to take home. Paint a poster board and look at the new color, in daylight and by lamplight, to make sure it's just right for you.

However, if you do not know the name or number of the current paint, then I would pick up samples of similar colors from a local paint store and see which is closest to what you have, and then pick a shade darker, etc. Best of luck. Looks like a lovely house!

Thanks, Carolyn. We had a lot of fun renovating and seeing the finished product. And you are right the paint is more of a taupe color.
