My house is in the mountains, a lot of brown tones and wood. I have an entire side of the house with a pine accent wall (yellowish/orange but pretty natural stain). Also have double pine barn doors that will be stained natural as well that lead in to the sun room. Otherwise all trim is original medium outdated oak that will either switch to natural pine or restain either a lighter color to match the pine or a really dark color to contrast. Flooring on the main level is mostly tile which I've always thought was a pretty swirl of cream, white, tan but I now see it as very orange since I've been trying paint colors. There is some carpet in the main living area and up the stairs which is a blend of light cream/off-white, tans, browns and even a smidge of black in the carpet. The house is currently ALL antique white. It works to tie things together but I feel like I'm living in an apartment and need a warmer color but don't want to go to dark. We also have 2 stone fireplaces that have brick with a lot of reds, tans, browns, maybe even a little orange color. I have tried revere pewter, edgecomb, manchester tan, agreeable gray, accessible beige, gobi desert at 1/2 strength, just to name a few. I literally have probably 20 samples. Nothing looks right. Anything with gray in it, even the manchester tan surprisingly, looks blue in some areas. Specifically the wall that meets up with the pine wall. I do have a forrest of trees around my house which I understand is affecting the color. I basically gave up on my bedroom and just covered up my samples with the antique white. I'm on the verge of giving up for the rest of the house and just leaving the antique white which seems to be the only thing that doesn't drive me crazy. Aside from it just being boring. I do have oak cabinets in my kitchen currently which I will be painting antique white this Winter. So I already plan to do a light sage green on the small wall area in the kitchen but don't want to go that bold throughout the entire house. Any advice or suggestions before I throw in the towel would be greatly appreciated! BTW I have a son and a daughter and I did let them pick bolder colors for their rooms but it really only works in their spaces with their decor. Daughter's room is light purple and sons room is a light blue (actually my favorite room in the house despite HATING the blue appearance all the paints seem to give off downstairs). TIA!
