My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

    The walls and the portion of the ceiling coffer that is vertical is: Sherwin Williams Accessible Beige SW 7036. The flat portion of the ceilings and trim are Bright White.

    Thanks Erica for replying to this question. One of the really nice things about using "Bright White" for a ceiling is that it reflects or takes on the faintest hint of the other colors in the room, thus providing a nice cohesive feel to the room. Also having a lighter contrasting color on the ceiling makes a room feel larger.
