Foyer paint color advice needed

10 years ago

Living Room is SW Sea Salt and the Dinning Room is SW Sea Salt. Traditional house with LR and DR right off the Foyer. I have SW Comfort Gray and SW Oyster Bay on the walls as a sample but not sure if I'm headed in the right direction? Thanking you all in advice for any help.

I don't really understand the issue -- since your symmetrical rooms are painted the same color, you can make this space any non-clashing color you like. I might go a bit neutral, say a shade of warm gray. Can't really make out the color of your samples, both of which look green to me -- I think if you're going green, you might as well stick with the same color as the other rooms, or make a clear break lighter or darker.

What a lovely house! I am not familiar with those SW colors but my initial reaction is that they are a little dark for the foyer. I like to keep foyers and outermost rooms lighter. My go-go gray is Benjamin Moore Gray Owl OC-52. I would go with that or something that light. Hope that helps!

I agree those samples are reading green, it's hard to tell . pick a light and bright neutral

Your grey selections seem to have too much green undertone. How about a color like this?

I like the comfort gray with the sea salt. Since they're on the same paint strip, I think they would coordinate well together. The foyer doesn't seem to have as much natural light as the adjacent room, so that's why I would only move one shade darker (comfort gray) rather than the oyster bay.

Try SW Alabaster, Mindful Gray or Repose Gray

SW Accessible Beige is a pretty compliment to Sea Salt
