The walls throughout the house are Barren Plain. We added a Kendall Charcoal ceiling detail in the dining room. The kitchen cabinetry was painted a custom colour (darker than Barren Plain).



Hi Jane, I just started our upstairs of our renovation using Decorators White trim and I love it, however I'm more nervous for continuing it on the Main Floor where our family room (with one wall of shiplap) and kitchen and dining room are. I was afraid it was going to be too stark bc I wanted to use some warmer gray walls like I see with Barren Plain. But I'm also having Brass hardware and light fixtures, So is going with warm walls a mistake? it's a small house. ceilings are 8'4, and some natural light but not a ton.

This is absolutely beautiful and Ms. Lockhart is so kind to provide the details and answer the same question over and over.


The Barren Plain color seems so much darker than the color in the photo. Was it changed or lighted at all?

Yes, additional lighting was added for the photography.


Hi Jane,
First I just want to say that I love your work. I am renovating/practically building from scratch our home. I am looking at picking our paint colours and light fixtures. I have a few questions. Should the trim in the house be all the same colour? In an open concept kitchen/living and dining room do all the light fixtures have to match in colour/finish?
Love this hallway and will be doing something similar in colour for sure.

Hi Christine,
Thanks for the compliments! I'm a big fan of keeping the trim all the same colour, usually the same white in a pearl finish (Oxford White, Simply White, Benjamin Moore.) You can mix metal finishes (trending right now) but I like keeping sight-lines continuous with lighting. Once a month I'm on facebook Live with Ask Jane where I answer all design and decor questions. Like my facebook page and you'll know when we the next one is!


What are the paint colors in the picture? Really like the gray and white, I know colors can be tricky . Thank you

The wall colour is Barren Plain (211-60) the trim is Decorator's White (CC20), the door is Twilight Zone (2127-10) all from Benjamin Moore. The flooring is from Vintage Prefinished Hardwood Flooring in Toronto. Here is a link to the shades. We picked the one closest to an "espresso" colour, White Oak in Baroque. http://www.vintageflooring.com/ENG/flooring/


By chance do you have the sizes and profiles of the crown and baseboards? This is a very elegant look. Thank you

The crown is 10" and the baseboards are between 7"-8". Unfortunately, I do not know the profile as they were chosen by the builder.


Benjamin Moore Barren Plain is the wall color.

Thank you!


Thanks!

It is Barren Plain by Benjamin Moore.


What the door color?

The door is Twilight Zone (2127-10) from Benjamin Moore

Wow. Excited to find this. We settled on barren plain a while ago as our main floor color. I‘m looking for a contrast color for the ceiling. Looked at the link. Is Stone Harbour on the ceiling or is that the wall color? We’re there pictures of the den on that page? Thanks for any direction, Jane.

The contrast colour we used on the dining room ceiling is Kendall Charcoal, a nice deep brown/grey.



Possibly custom made

We've used a dark colour like Kendall Charcoal (Benjamin Moore) in the dining room, but if you want red or blue, I would choose a very pale blue.

i Love this color .What color is this?


Hi, The trim colour is Decorator White Benjamin Moore CC 20 in a pearl finish.

Wall colour?


Sometimes we like to use a composite foamcore product for trim. You can learn more about moulding we like to use at http://www.mouldexmouldings.com.

Where can I get these crown mouldings and baseboards? and what style no.s are they?



Are the doors black?


Twilight Zone - Benjamin Moore

Yes, it's Twilight Zone.





The baseboards are 6 inches plus the bead trim.


This is Benjamin Moore DEcorator White CC-20 in a flat finish.
