My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

What color do you typically like best on trim/ ceiling when using Shaker Beige on walls?

13 years ago
I noticed you have used Linen White and also Mayonnaise on trim/ceiling when painting walls Shaker Beige. Which do you recommend more and should you use same color on ceiling and trim? You do a beautiful job! Wish I lived in one of these gorgeous homes you've designed!

    Thank you so much. If you want a warmer / creamy white then go with Linen White. Mayonniase is bright, crisp and clean. Either one is good with Shaker Beige. I use a flat finish on the ceilings and a semi-gloss on all the trim. The sheen is what stands out but it is subtle.

    Hello - as so many have said, I too am a huge fan of your work! Could you please tell me about the mirror in this room? I would love to do something similar in our dining room and am wondering who the manufacturer is and would love to know the approximate price of such a mirror? Thanks so much!!!

    I am also a huge fan of your work! I went with bleeker beige HC-80 on my walls and am trying to find an off white for my painted island and trim. Do you have a recommendation for whites that would compliment? Thank you!!
