Maybe a white ceiling and a change of light bulbs. It is a nice clean color IMO

No matter what you need to get a sample of the color, paint it on a large piece of poster board and hang it in the space so you can see how it changes in the light, then hang it on the next wall. Also change your bulbs so they are not too cool or too warm as this will dramatically alter your wall colors.

Sometimes even a floor can influence how the wall color looks.

It doesn't matter if you have used it before - new space new lighting.

It is the best money and time you will spend.

Good luck...

Anytime you see gray next to beige it is going to look more cool (blue-ish). I think you might see things differently when everything is painted and you've removed the floor protection. One other thing that might help is changing out the chandelier or at least the glass on the chandelier which seem ivory / beige in tone rather than white.

@pricklypearcactus Thanks! That’s helped a lot but solved half my problem. The ceiling is repose gray lightened by 50%. I’m starting to wonder if the color I was originally trying to Achieve older apartment was lightened any. But taking down the chandelier and other boob light with beige glass made it better didn’t solve problem. Appreciate the feed back

@DebbieWashburn I did samples that say for 2weeks. Def will take your advice on changing the lighting. Like I said I’m trying to a choice that light faint gray not to light not too dark but different space with darker floor. I appreciate your feedback

It's so hard to tell on a computer screen - on mine I see no blue at all. I wish I could remember the other thread where someone had an issue similar to this. I believe changing the lighting really helped. Lets see what thoughts others have...

I took the color back to Lowe’s. I now am stuck and contemplating hiring a color consultant

@Tiffany Braggs I know a few paint stores in my area have color consultants that will come to your house for a fee that then gets applied to the paint cost if you purchase. Since you are painting anyway, you may want to check to see if any stores in your area do that. Although I agree with a previous poster that you may want to get everything in first to see how it all looks before paying to repaint.

It’s the orientation of the room that changes paint colors. For instance, if the room is getting North light, you need a gray with a lavender undertone; Repose Gray has a lavender undertone. So, from what direction is the light coming?

I also think cutting the ceiling color is not the way to go in your room. Before you do anything, paint the ceiling the same white as the woodwork, but in a flat finish.

If repainting isn’t an option, get some blue/green fabrics and hold them against the wall. It should make the walls look more gray.

It need not mean a new sofa (unless it’s blue), wall art, throw pillows, rug in blues will help.

Have you tried SW 6197 Aloof Gray or Behr Dolphin Fin 790C-3? Part of the issue might also be that you got a color match at Lowes. Not all colors match well because the bases and colorants are different.
