Paint Home Decorating Design Dilemma

Edgecomb doesn't look right in here

7 years ago

I love Edgecomb Gray with all my heart. It was all over my old house and I recommended it to everyone. I'm sick of the dark khaki color on the walls of my new house, so I grabbed a sample of Edgecomb. Only to realize that the color on the walls is Edgecomb! It looks so different in this house and I hate it. What color can I use that will look like the griege of Edgecomb in this light? I guess we don't get much natural light in here.

We need pictures of the space, preferably 4 or more, at least one of each wall and other colors and features of the room that are not changing.

So are you saying that Edgecomb Gray looks more yellow (khaki) in your new home? Maybe try Gray Owl, Oyster Shell or Harbor Gray, for a light gray that's less yellow, or Stonington Gray, Metropolitan or Coventry Gray for darker grays with less yellow.

Well, I have Edgecomb Gray now, but I had tried Balboa Mist first and it went blue in my house. Take a look at that one also. It is a beautiful color just didn't work for me.
