Porcelain Footed
What colors should I paint my Great Room?
Here are the details.. It is an enormous room encompassing the Dining Room, Foyer, Kitchen, Breakfast Nook, and Family Room. The flooring can’t change, it is a gray/white porcelain tile throughout. Right now the walls are painted a light gray, except for one Very Large 16 foot tall x 40 ft. wall that is reddish/burgundy. Needless to say, I don’t know what we were thinking 8 years ago when we painted it…but it is ugly. Our kitchen cabinets are visible from the room and are light maple. We are in FL, so there is a 3 pane sliding glass door that looks out to the pool. Our DR furniture is a light aspen..similar color to the maple. Our breakfast nook table is wrought iron with a glass top. We will be buying new family room furniture to match the walls.
I’m open to pretty much anything, but we really like earthtones. Oh, and Plantation Shutters will be installed on the windows in a couple of weeks as well. Anyone out there with more creative vision than I? Thanks!
I’m not sure if you like crisp clean looks or textured walls….
I like some texture, so I would go with a really soft toffee color… and probably go with a slightly darker of the same color as a ‘color wash’
(color wash would be 1part paint to 1 part glaze rubbed on or brushed on lightly over the 1st color…. i usually rub mine til it just shows the texture but not too much color)
sage greens would be a nice accent color as well…. I would go more neutral on the walls and add the color you like to the furniture or the accents (pillows, frame matting, etc)
