SW Agreeable Gray. I have it in my house and my friend has it in hers. I had a really odd spot that needed a neutral color to tone down some ugly tile coloring and it even worked there. It has been a great color in a lot of different areas and lighting

Try a light taupe.

We purchased a specific color at Lowes, when the gal went to mix it, she made a mistake and came up with something a few shades different.

We got it home and LOVE it, to the point that we used it in other rooms.

Now I do not know if I can ever get that specific color again, we have no clue what the "mistake" was, and seriously hate the thought of not getting more for touch ups.

I know it's "just paint", but it does set the tone for our entire condo.

For what it's worth, our shade came out darker, it looks sophisticated and elegant.

Can't wait to see what you choose! Good luck and post pics!

I darkened Crisp Muslin to 115%. I love it.

Darn, I was going to suggest Canvas Tan. Great neutral.

SW softer tan or BM manchester tan?

I know you're looking for beige, but go ahead and sample SW Agreeable Gray -- I'd call it a warm gray. It is in all of my common spaces, and SW Alabaster is on trim/doors throughout. It's a beautiful combo.

Your photo is of Accessible Beige, so I am confused about your dilemma.

I would ask you from where the natural light comes.

You are right, that photo is Accessible Beige and I love the color in that photo. When I put it on my walls, it has a lot more gray and green. I see the color above, but just in the corners of my room. Maybe I could try changing my light bulbs? The light I get in my room is from the south.

Have you tried S W Natural Choice?

Janie Gibbs, do you have no more left at all? The reason I ask is if you can just get a very small amount they can scan it in their paint match machine. (or whatever it is called :). ). If not, can you take about an inch of it painted somewhere off to take it in?

Have you looked at SW Urban Putty

Hi Wmsimons85,

I have like a "brush stroke" left, I feel like it would take a world renown chemist or something, IDK if it can/will ever be matched. When the gal from Lowes mixed it, she was horrified and loudly said "oops", and was concerned she was going to be in trouble.

Fingers crossed for you the machine can detect the shade and then provide the formula. I know to well how frustrating it is to have none for touch ups!

I have both accessible beige and agreeable gray in my house as neutrals. In south facing rooms, or any rooms, the beige does not read green. It seems to have a black or gray undertone. Like someone else mentioned, I'd play with your light bulbs. If they are too cool they may be skewing the paint color. Good luck to you! I like both these shades a lot; very versatile.

I struggled to find the right beige for my north living room. Finally decided on SW Balanced Beige. It works well and I get lots of compliments.

I am so glad to hear you say that beth09. I am going to put some samples of it on my wall tonight. I love the color, but was afraid that it would be too dark. I have a 2 story west facing living room that I thought about using it with, but the room doesn't get a ton of natural light so I have been back and forth. What feeling does it give you?

I picked up a paint chip of Urban Putty last night. It looks like it is in between Accessible Beige and Balance Beige, but maybe has a bit more green. I think I can live with green undertones more than pink (I don't mind gold, but that is what I have had and I want a change). Has anyone used Urban Putty?

Oh gosh chacodog, I just saw your comment! Have you used it?

swagner, I decorated my LR in a beige monochromatic design. When I go in there it feels serene, calm, quiet and maybe slightly sophisticated. I must have searched every beige under the sun, partly to find one that would work (no unwanted undertones) AND was considered warm (which it is). When I read a decorator say it was their go to paint time after time, I tried it.

Whether it will be too dark for you, only you can say. As with any other paint color, some areas will darken depending on lighting and shadows.

Painting it on the wall is good, but I found painting poster board and moving it from wall to wall, at all times of day, was the best test.

Good luck!

I forgot to mention that I have no green undertones!

Beth09 that is exactly the feeling I want. I know some people thing beige is blah, but I want my home to be the place that I find calm and peace :) Thank you!

chacodog that is a beautiful color. I will pick up a sample on my way home tonight!

You're welcome swagner. :)

Does it have to be SW? If not could you try edgecomb grey by BM. I too recently went through this. Has every paint colour for both SW and BM in swatches in my wall plus cardboard moved around. Edgecomb was the best for our home - It is a grey/beige and very warm. It has a light sandy tone. You could have it colour matched at SW if you must use their paint. Worth a try...?

Example Photo below

That is beautiful! I have heard about that color, but haven't actually looked at a chip since it was BM. Thank you for the picture, I will check it out!
