I like to look at the historic palettes for color ideas. Als, I feel like something watmwr will have more longevity now than something cooler or grey

Agree -- nothing is timeless. Except a style that is cohesive with the house.

Yep, nothing is timeless. Choose something you like and accept that someday you'll need to repaint anyway.

It depends on the style of house. A very contemporary/modern home will always look good in basic while.

For Sherwin-Williams Alabaster (SW 7008) trim, pair it withwarmer, softer neutralslike Accessible Beige (SW 7036) or Oyster White (SW 7637) for a cohesive look, orearthy toneslike terracotta and olive green for a nature-inspired palette; alternatively, use Alabaster on the walls with a different sheen for a seamless, "color-drenched" approach. For a brighter contrast, consider a clean white like Pure White (SW 7005), but be aware it may make Alabaster's yellow undertones more prominent.

Pick a color you really like, because, nothing is timeless. Something that matches your style, and your furniture and accessories color is what is best to do.

Exactly^^^ if it’s a well coordinated look with all of your hard finishes and upholstered items and rugs then it will look good today and years to come. If you post photos of your home you can get some additional advice.
