Accent wall and ceiling or NOT

3 years ago

Hello, I am painting the living room and the entry foyer and the second floor all one color more than likely I’m going with classic gray matte and for the ceiling and trim I’m going with 75% lighter from the classic gray as I don’t want a huge contrast between the trim and the wall I’d like it to be a nice and muted flow. My question is:

I have recessed ceiling and I also have a double face fireplace. Do I need accent wall or accent ceiling in the recessed ceiling see photos please the current colors are old as we just started painting the walls.

My bookcase will be dark stain of charcoal grey.

no contrasting wall behind the dark fireplace
no contrasting cieling
contrasting ceiling in the recessed area
contrasting wall behind the dark fire place.
glassic grey for all wall colors
