What BM white paint for walls will look good with BM Atrium White trim

7 years ago

We are using Benjamin Moore Atrium White on living room trim primarily because we have custom plantation shutters painted that color, and also want to also pain the walls white. Does anyone know what Benjamin Moore white would look good on the walls with Atrium white on the trim?

    Mixing whites can be really challenging. If you want white walls I suggest you use the same white, BW Atrium White, but in a different sheen. Trim is usually semi-gloss so go for a satin or eggshell for the walls. The difference in sheen (aka shine) will give you enough of a contrast, plus you know it will match!
